Contents

The aim of this series, since its founding in 2004 by Professor M. Wynn Thomas, is to publish scholarly and critical work by established specialists and younger scholars that reflects the richness and variety of the English-language literature of modern Wales. The studies published so far have amply demonstrated that concepts, models and discourses current in the best contemporary studies can illuminate aspects of Welsh culture, and have also foregrounded the potential of the Welsh example to draw attention to themes that are often neglected or marginalised in anglophone cultural studies. The series defines and explores that which distinguishes Waless anglophone literature, challenges critics to develop methods and approaches adequate to the task of interpreting Welsh culture, and invites its readers to locate the process of writing Wales in English within comparative and transnational contexts.

Richard Huws, Beetham Plaza Fountain, Liverpool.

Richard Huws (190280) was an artist and designer of European outlook. Born on Anglesey, he was influenced by the unifying design vision of the Dessau Bauhaus during his period of study at the Vienna Kunstgewerbeschule (school of applied arts) between 1927 and 1931, before returning to live and work in London. Among his several designs for kinetic water sculpture, the Beetham Plaza Fountain (or Bucket Fountain) is the last surviving, completed in 1967. (DJ)
