Philip Payton is Professor of Cornish & Australian
Studies in the University of Exeter and Director of the Institute
of Cornish Studies at the University’s Cornwall campus. He is also
the author of A.L. Rowse and Cornwall: A Paradoxical Patriot (UEP,
2005, paperback 2007), Making Moonta: The Invention of ‘Australia’s
Little Cornwall’ (UEP, 2007) and numerous other books on Cornwall
and the Cornish.
'The outcome and intention has been to place Cornwall squarely in
new debates about the nature of "Britishness" and the territorial
identities.' (Western Morning News)
'Cornish Studies is probably the only 'county' series that can
legitimately claim to represent the past and present of a nation.
As such it consistently provides rich material for the
understanding of the British past and present as a whole, and of
their impact on the wider world.' (Ronald Hutton, Professor of
History, University of Bristol)
'I am deeply impressed by the Cornish Studies series. As a
researcher on the construction of Englishness and its
exclusivities, as well as a specialist on minority cultures, I find
its contents thought-provoking and challenging. It is exceptional
to find such wide-ranging and truly interdisciplinary approaches
within a scholarly series. In particular, its reflexivity and
self-criticism is refreshing and stimulating.' (Professor Tony
Kushner, Department of History, University of Southampton)
