The medieval march of Wales: Welsh or English?

Abstract: The medieval march of Wales: Welsh or English? Professor Helen Fulton at the University of Bristol, examines the case study of the Medieval March of Wales, a vibrant multicultural border region between Wales and England, to explore spatial identities which challenge modern ‘nation-state’ nationalisms. Social histories are traditionally nationalist, focusing on the cultural production of modern nation-states and typically showcasing the outputs of a single dominant language. This nationalist approach to social history means that very often the experiences of multilingualism, border cultures, and substate nations are routinely elided.
