  1. The National Voice

    FEB 16

    The National Voice

    Between 1900 and 1914, Wales was not simply becoming modern. Wales was arguing about what modernity meant, and whether it had to come at the cost of Welsh language, Welsh institutions, and Welsh identity. Some of that argument happened in Parliament, through bills, speeches, and legislation. Some of it happened in newspapers, in chapels, at eisteddfodau, and in reading rooms. And some of it happened in verse, in voice, and in shared chorus.

    Roman Britain Forma Imperii

    Before Rome ever landed soldiers on British shores in 43 CE, Britain had already been measured, judged, and classified. Not morally, but administratively.

    The First Modern British Conflict - The Boer War

    Today we turn to a conflict that shaped the final years of the Victorian era and left deep marks on towns and villages across Wales. The Boer War, fought between 1899 and 1902, was a clash between the British Empire and the two Boer republics in South Africa. It was a conflict of imperial ambition, political controversy and human tragedy, and Wales was deeply involved in all of it.

    Roman Britain - Imperium Ante Provinciam
