Overview
The Cornish Language New Testament, titled "An Testament Nowydh", is a remarkable achievement in the preservation and revitalization of the Cornish language. Cornish, a Brythonic Celtic language historically spoken by the Cornish people, has faced significant challenges in maintaining its presence in the modern era. This translation of the New Testament into Cornish represents a concerted effort to ensure that this ancient tongue continues to thrive and be accessible to both scholars and the general public.
Produced by the Cornish Language Board, this hardcover edition presents the complete text of the New Testament in the Cornish language, allowing readers to engage with the timeless teachings and narratives of Christianity through the unique lens of Cornish culture and linguistic tradition. The careful translation work, undertaken by a team of dedicated linguists and scholars, has resulted in a text that is both faithful to the original sources and resonant with the distinctive rhythms and idioms of the Cornish language.
Beyond its linguistic significance, the Cornish Language New Testament serves as a powerful symbol of the resilience and adaptability of minority languages in the face of globalization. By preserving and promoting the use of Cornish, this publication not only honors the rich cultural heritage of Cornwall but also inspires a sense of pride and identity among Cornish speakers, both within the region and around the world.
