Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'The Life and Work Griffith Jones of Llanddowror' offers a thorough biographical study of one of the most influential figures in the history of Wales. Griffith Jones, an 18th-century clergyman, is celebrated as the founder of the Circulating Schools, a pioneering educational system designed to bring literacy and religious instruction to the Welsh people in their own language. This work examines the life of Jones from his early years to his influential tenure as the rector of Llanddowror, highlighting his unwavering commitment to social and spiritual reform.The narrative explores the operational genius of the circulating schools, which moved from parish to parish to accommodate the needs of rural laborers. By focusing on his theological motivations and his administrative challenges, the text illustrates how Jones laid the groundwork for a literate and culturally conscious Wales. The book also contextualizes his role within the broader religious movements of the time, including his relationship with the early Methodists. This volume serves as a vital record for readers interested in the evolution of educational practices, the preservation of the Welsh language, and the history of the Anglican Church in Wales. F.A. Cavenagh's account remains a definitive look at a man whose vision transformed the intellectual and moral landscape of his country.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
