Whilst\u00a0incarcerated in the Fleet Prison in London (as a debtor) in the early 1630s, he produced three books of wordlists, covering many aspects of everyday life. The lists provide us with an invaluable insight into the life and language of a Flintshire-based gentleman in the early 17th century, whilst also adding greatly to the known Welsh vocabulary of the period.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Ann Parry Owen, University of Wales Centre for Advanced Welsh &amp; Celtic Studies and University of Wales Dictionary<\/p>\n<p>Chaired by\u00a0Professor Helen Fulton, Member of Council<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All are welcome to join this talk, which will be live and with questions.
