Sinossi

Cornish Studies has consistently and successfully sought to explore the nature of Cornish identity and discuss its implications for society and governance in contemporary Cornwall.

This latest volume includes articles on mining in both nineteenth-century and contemporary Cornwall, an assessment of research into Cornish folklore, discussion of the modern growth of alternative &;Celtic spiritualities&; in Cornwall, a fresh perspective on the Middle Cornish language of medieval Cornish drama, and a fascinating account of the rise and importance of swimming matches in Victorian Cornwall.
