EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken in 1987, we find Philip Dunn, a Cornish bard, immersed in the tranquility of his suburban garden in Birmingham, England. The image transports us back to the 1980s, a time when the neo-Druidic and Gorsedh Kernow movements were gaining popularity in the UK. Dressed in traditional Cornish attire, Dunn sits on a wooden chair, surrounded by lush greenery and the vibrant colors of flowers in bloom. A stack of books and papers rests at his side, as he delves deep into the world of poetry, no doubt rehearsing for an upcoming performance. His intense focus and serene expression convey the deep connection he has with his Cornish heritage and the natural world. The photograph captures the essence of the bardic tradition, a practice that has been an integral part of Cornish culture for centuries. The Cornish bards, or "Bards of Gorsedh Kernow," are a group of individuals who dedicate themselves to preserving and promoting the Cornish language, literature, and history. Through their poetry and performances, they celebrate the unique identity and rich heritage of Cornwall. Despite being situated in a suburban setting, Dunn's garden serves as a sanctuary for him to connect with his roots and continue the ancient tradition of Cornish bardism. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the power of literature, tradition, and the natural world to inspire and uplift us, no matter where we may be.
