How do we define Welshness? Does that definition differ from how the concept was defined in the past? And how do those definitions take account of differences of race, class, gender, and language? "Wales Unchained" takes on these questions, exploring the various categories that have informed, and continue to inform, ideas of Wales and Welshness. Through discussions of such key figures as Rhys Davies, Dylan Thomas, Raymond Williams, Aneurin Bevan, and Gwyneth Lewis, Daniel G. Williams teases out the aesthetic and political implications of varying conceptions of self and community.
