En savoir plus sur le livre

The Welsh Not served as a punitive token for children speaking Welsh in 19th-century schools, often leading to corporal punishment and contributing to the language's decline. This study explores the various punishments inflicted on children and the broader implications for communities and Wales' linguistic future. It reveals that the exclusion of Welsh not only traumatized students but also hindered their English learning. Over time, Welsh became more accepted in Victorian schools, transforming them into more humane environments while simultaneously facilitating the anglicisation of Wales.
