Opis

Pennar Davies played a notable part in the literary, cultural and religious life of Wales in the second half of the twentieth century. An exceptionally talented scholar and author, whose interests spanned the disciplines of the novelist, poet, critic, historian and theologian, he also possessed a powerful and enigmatic character which influenced many who came into contact with him. This is an important book not just because of its sharp portrait of a key cultural figure, but because of its portrayal of a way of life. Its focus on Nonconformity, patriotic politics and social commitment - which although still very much alive to older generations is rapidly becoming incomprehensible to the younger generation.
