Reading for Renegades

Welsh writers from three different eras reflect in times of crisis on the changing relationship between Europe, England, and Wales. Morgan Llwyd, Fifth Monarchist and Puritan, explores reason and progress, reaction and tradition, monarchy, republic, and personal liberty, and the history and destiny of Wales in the aftermath of the Civil War; while Ellis Wynne, Anglican and Royalist, reflects on the rise of capitalism, imperialism and the global city in the years before the Act of Union; and Rob Mimpriss charts the rise of English nationalism in the years following the Brexit vote.
