- A substantial output based on a decade of research, this monograph brings a fresh critical perspective on Welsh Patagonia. This literary investigation of identity construction innovatively combines hitherto separate sources and approaches employed by scholars in Britain, Argentina and beyond. The textual corpus (four memoirs) has not been studied previously in a scholarly work and the meticulous contextual and literary analysis (requiring rare linguistic expertise) breaks new ground in the light of current postcolonial theoretical debates. The research effort involved provides new insights for both the case study and the development of settler postcolonialism as an interpretative framework.
