‘Travelling to new Worlds: Immigration, Emigration and the Experience of Wales’
The Eighteenth Annual Conference of the Association for Welsh Writing in English
Gregynog Hall, Newtown, Powys, Wales, UK 7-9 April 2006 Welsh identity is not, and has never been, a stable, geographically-restricted affair. The quest for work and freedom has historically precipitated emigration from within Wales while its industrial heartlands have ben fed by successive waves of immigrants. Welsh writing has been enriched by these population movements and continues to be informed by them. Writers fleeing from persecution are arriving in Wales; writers from Wales are travelling to and engaging with other worlds. |
