Publisher's Synopsis

Welsh Lyrics Of The Nineteenth Century is a book that was first published in 1896 by Edmund Osborne Jones. The book is a collection of poems and songs written in the Welsh language by various authors during the 19th century. The poems cover a wide range of themes, including love, nature, politics, religion, and Welsh culture. The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Welsh literature. The first section includes poems by some of the most well-known Welsh poets of the time, such as William Williams, John Ceiriog Hughes, and Taliesin Williams. The second section of the book focuses on the songs and ballads of the Welsh people, including traditional folk songs and hymns. The third section includes poems written in response to political and social issues of the time, such as the Chartist movement and the Rebecca Riots. The final section of the book is dedicated to the work of Welsh women poets, who were often overlooked in the male-dominated literary world of the time. Overall, Welsh Lyrics Of The Nineteenth Century is an important historical document that provides a fascinating insight into the literary and cultural heritage of Wales during the 19th century. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Welsh literature, history, and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
