Daniel Owen
Daniel Owen (20 October 1836 – 22 October 1895) was a Welsh novelist, generally regarded as the foremost Welsh-language novelist of the 19th century,〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=BBC Northeast Wales Arts )〕 and as the first significant novelist to write in Welsh. ==Early life== Owen was born in Mold, Flintshire, into a working-class family, his father, Robert Owen, being a coalminer. His father and two brothers, James and Robert, were killed on 10 May 1837 in a mining accident when the Argoed mine became flooded. The loss impacted heavily on the family who remained in poverty. Owen received no formal education, but he acknowledged his debt to his Sunday school. At the age of 12, Owen was apprenticed to a tailor, Angel Jones, who was an elder with the Calvinistic Methodist. Owen described his apprenticeship as a 'kind of college', and began writing poetry after being influenced by one of his colleagues. Owen used the tailor shop as an opportunity to discuss and argue topics with workers and customers.
