Heddiw- ii - Aneirin Ap Talfan a Dafydd Jenkins 1937 (Preloved)

This beautifully bound volume contains the 1937 issues of Heddiw (Today), one of the most influential Welsh-language literary and political journals of the 20th century. Published during a period of intense national awakening, this volume represents the peak of Welsh modernist thought and republican sentiment.

The "Penyberth" Connection: 1937 was the year of the trial for the three nationalists who set fire to the bombing school at Penyberth. This volume contains specific articles or "manifestos" regarding the trial or the imprisonment of Saunders Lewis, Valentine, and D.J. Williams, making it a historical document.

There are also adverts throughout which are fascinating.
