Opis

Since the inception of Cornish Studies, the matter of Cornish Philosophy has suffered considerable neglect. Philosophy is a field in which humanity investigates problems connected with reality and existence; in so doing, investigating values, thought and language. Like other minority communities and peoples across the globe, the Cornish should be asking what makes them who they are. In this vital corrective, "Towards a Cornish Philosophy", Alan M. Kent offers an initial study of the basic beliefs, attitudes and concepts belonging to the Cornish over time. Not only is the relationship of Cornish Philosophy to Celtic Studies examined, but so is its relationship to Romanticism, and the Enlightenment, culminating in observations on the philosophy of the Cornish language, Cornu-English, and the West Britons' obsession with memory, place and stone. Dr Alan M. Kent is a Lecturer in Literature with the Open University in the South West of Britain and Visiting Lecturer in Celtic Studies at the University of La Coruńa in Galicia. He is the author of numerous works and articles on the literary and cultural history of Cornwall. He is also a prize-winning poet, novelist and dramatist. His most recent works include "Celtic Cornwall: Nation, Tradition, Invention" (2012), "Voog's Ocean" (2012), and "Bewnans Peran" (2013). He also edited "Charles Causley: Theatre Works" (2013).
