Education in Wales and the Rebirth of a Nation.
Webster, Roger
History of Education, v19 n3 p183-94 Sep 1990
Examines how rural-urban, nonconformist-Anglican dichotomies characterized Welsh educational history. Discusses how nineteenth-century industrialization and social status encouraged Anglicization of Welsh schools and society. Analyzes subsequent developments that reawakened national consciousness, and demands for Welsh language instruction, now compulsory in Wales. (CH)
