About the author
Rhiannon Ifans
31 books7 followersDr Rhiannon Ifans’ main field of research is medieval Welsh literature, both poetry and prose. She is the foremost scholar working in the field of the Welsh carol and related texts, and as editor of the old-established and authoritative journal relating to Welsh folksong, Canu Gwerin, she has made a significant contribution to the publication of Welsh music and research.
She has also published extensively on Welsh folk life and folk culture, Welsh theatre (with special reference to the eighteenth-century interludes), and new research by Dr Ifans proves that the first published literary volume by a woman was the work of Jane Ellis, an important milestone in the assessment of Welsh publishing. An award-winning children’s author, she is a regular participator at festivals and in schools and higher education institutions.
