Excerpt from A Manual of Welsh Literature: Containing a Brief Survey of the Works of the Chief Bards and Prose Writers From the Sixth Century to the End of the Eighteenth
This little book was undertaken at the request Of many who urged that there was no Handbook of Welsh Litera ature, at a popular price, which could be used by those who wished to make a general acquaintance with the subject, when time and Opportunities prevented their undertaking a more detailed study.
It is also written with the hope that Welsh boys and girls in the Higher Forms of our Intermediate Schools, and Junior Students at the University Colleges, may have within their reach a general outline Of the Literature of Wales, before they engage in the closer study required by the higher examinations Of the University of Wales.
The writer experienced the need of such a work in the early part of his own career, when a Welsh library was difficult Of access, and books in which the treasures of our literature were locked were not procurable, even when a slender purse could supply the wherewithal.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a thorough examination of Welsh literature, guiding readers through a rich literary history beginning in the sixth century.

Through insightful analysis, the book sheds light on the complexities of Welsh literature, its unique qualities, and its enduring legacy within the broader literary landscape.
