Mannin (journal)
''Mannin: Journal of Matters Past and Present relating to Mann'' was an academic journal for the promotion of Manx culture, published biannually between 1913 and 1917 by the Manx Society, ''Yn Cheshaght Ghailckagh''. It was edited by Sophia Morrison, with the assistance of William Cubbon. Background ''Mannin'' was the society journal of the Manx Language Society, ''Yn Çheshaght Ghailckagh'', (which changed its name to "The Manx Society" in 1913, to distance themselves from the apparent concern with language only). The journal took forward the aims of the Society laid out by Arthur William Moore at its establishment in 1899: "Though called the Manx Language Society, it should, I think, by no means confine its energies to the promotion of an interest in the language, but extend them to the study of Manx history, the collection of Manx music, ballads, carols, folklore, proverbs, place-names, including the old field names which are rapidly dying out. In a word, to the preservat ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Manx Literature
Literature in the Manx language is known from the 16th century. Early works were often religious in theme, including translations of the Book of Common Prayer, the Bible and Milton's ''Paradise Lost''. Edward Faragher (; 1831–1908), who published poems, stories and translations, is considered the last major native writer of the language. The historian A. W. Moore collected traditional Manx-language songs and ballads in publications towards the end of the 19th century. Yn Çheshaght Ghailckagh, the Manx Language Society, was founded at the end of the 19th century. The revival of Manx has resulted in new original works and translations being published in the late 20th and early 21st centuries, with authors including Brian Stowell (1936–2019) and Robert Corteen Carswell (born 1950). Religious literature The earliest datable text in Manx (preserved in 18th century manuscripts), a poetic history of the Isle of Man from the introduction of Christianity, dates to the 16th centur ...

Manx Culture
The culture of the Isle of Man is influenced by its Celtic and, to a lesser extent, its Norse origins, though its close proximity to the United Kingdom, popularity as a UK tourist destination, and recent mass immigration by British migrant workers has meant that British influence has been dominant since the Revestment period. Recent revival campaigns have attempted to preserve the surviving vestiges of Manx culture after a long period of Anglicisation, and significant interest in the Manx language, history and musical tradition has been the result. Language The official language of the Isle of Man is English. Manx Gaelic has traditionally been spoken but is now considered "critically endangered". The Manx Gaelic language is a Goidelic Celtic language and is one of a number of insular Celtic languages spoken in the British Isles. Manx Gaelic has been officially recognised as a legitimate autochthonous regional language under the European Charter for Regional or Minority Lan ...
