<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Georgia>Even on the internet the Bewnans Ke official
edition from Exeter University looks sumptuous; indeed so alluring I decided to
order it up despite the rather punitive cost. Sadly I must have been just too
late as I never got it and I think my local Waterstone's has given it up.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Georgia>I don't doubt a second edition would find a very
ready market amingst Cornish enthusiasts and serious Celticists. Apart from
anything else it'd be fascinating to discover how it found its way into the
possession of the late Prof Caerwyn Williams of Aberystwyth and if he himself
had done any work on it. I am amazed the Aberystwyth Institute for Higher Celtic
Studies ( or whatever its exact title is) has never properly developed any
Cornish research or courses. It is bad enough to have the language frowned upon
and disdained by old Anglo Saxon prejudice without being further oppressed
by fellow Celts joining in the Cornish bashing!</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>Agreed; an excellent publication, and one I treasure. This
valuable contribution to Celtic scholarship and to the Cornish Revival should
not be allowed to languish out of print.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>But, <B>please, please, please,</B> offer paperback as an option next
time, so that those who couldn't afford the 1st HB edn. can afford the 2nd PB
revised one.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I cannot<I> —Gony, ellas, ogh ha tru!—</I> recommend an even cheaper
e-book edition, due to the (doubtless unfounded) suspicion of Inauthenticist
plagiarists lurking in the shadows of the Revival.<BR>

<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 11px">Perhaps a second edition is called for if the
Thomas and Williams <EM>Bewnans Ke </EM>is now out of print. I bought a copy
when it first came out. It is a very fine scholarly edition and I would not
hesitate in recommending it to any serious scholar of Cornish. I seem to
remember some people saying that they found it prohibitively expensive.
Perhaps a paperback edition is now called
for.</DIV></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV><BR></DIV>
