0:02:56 > 0:03:00- Sara Adaline Eluned Phillips - was a girl from Cenarth...

0:03:01 > 0:03:04- ..a village made famous - by waterfalls...

0:03:04 > 0:03:08- ..and fishermen using - coracles on the Teifi river.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12- To those who don't know about her...

0:03:12 > 0:03:15- ..she was the first woman to win - the Crown, not once but twice.

0:03:15 > 0:03:19- She led a colourful life and - knew some very extraordinary people.

0:03:19 > 0:03:23- Eluned was a pupil at the primary - school in Cenarth...

0:03:24 > 0:03:27- ..before moving on to the grammar - school in Cardigan.

0:03:27 > 0:03:31- From there, Eluned moved to - a boarding school in London...

0:03:32 > 0:03:36- ..which is where I believe - the adventures started.

0:03:36 > 0:03:41- Eluned was a colourful character, - from her red hair to her stories.

0:03:41 > 0:03:46- She was a fantastic storyteller and - would mix with all backgrounds.

0:03:46 > 0:03:56- She never forgot her roots, - which enabled her to be herself.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03- She was an exceptional character...

0:04:03 > 0:04:07- ..and the people that she met during - her career were wonderful.

0:04:07 > 0:04:12- While she was part of the trendy - Left Bank Paris community...

0:04:13 > 0:04:17- ..prior to World War II - and she knew Picasso and Edith Piaf.

0:04:17 > 0:04:23- It's believed that she saw the - Guernica painting by Picasso...

0:04:23 > 0:04:27- ..as the paint was drying - on this famous piece.

0:04:27 > 0:04:30- She was one of the first - to see this iconic painting.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35- Considering what she accomplished - during her life...

0:04:35 > 0:04:38- ..you would expect her - to be seen as a heroic poet.

0:04:38 > 0:04:43- The reality was very different.

0:04:43 > 0:04:49- She should be far more well-known - in our literary world...

0:04:50 > 0:04:53- ..and in Welsh culture in general.

0:04:54 > 0:04:58- She was the first woman to win two - crowns at the National Eisteddfod.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02- Instead of being proud - of her achievements...

0:05:02 > 0:05:06- ..there has been sly comments - about her work...

0:05:06 > 0:05:11- ..and questions about - their originality.

0:05:11 > 0:05:14- That's what happened...

0:05:15 > 0:05:19- ..rather than any interest in the - people she met and her experiences.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23- She was a great poet - who won two National Crowns...

0:05:23 > 0:05:27- ..but that hasn't been part - of the narrative, unfortunately.

0:05:27 > 0:05:30- Because of this...

0:05:30 > 0:05:35- ..she has been forgotten as a woman, - a poet and a character.

0:05:35 > 0:05:39- She should be championed - amongst the greats...

0:05:39 > 0:05:43- ..along with the male poets - of the 20th century.

0:05:43 > 0:05:47- I hope this book - will assist this process.

0:19:58 > 0:20:02- ..and the first throng of Welsh - immigrants sailed to Patagonia...

0:20:03 > 0:20:05- ..and established the Welsh Colony.

0:20:05 > 0:20:09- Some 150 years later and the - countries are still kindred spirits.

0:20:13 > 0:20:16- Trelew is the main hub - for wool processing in Argentina.

0:20:17 > 0:20:23- It was natural for the Welsh textile - artist, Cefyn Burgess to go there.

0:20:23 > 0:20:31- The first step was - to view the chapels in Patagonia.

0:20:31 > 0:20:36- I've always been interested - in chapels...

0:20:36 > 0:20:41- ..and visited local chapels, those - in Liverpool and across the world...

0:20:41 > 0:20:45- ..but these chapels were different.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50- The chapel was one of the first - structures built by the Welsh.

0:20:51 > 0:20:55- They are commonplace - from the Chubut Valley to the Andes.

0:20:56 > 0:20:58- This left Cefyn - with plenty of choice.

0:20:59 > 0:21:05- My first chapels were - the Tabernacl and Moriah in Trelew.

0:21:05 > 0:21:09- Those were the chapels - of my first location.

0:21:10 > 0:21:17- They are home to the graves of - the first immigrants to Patagonia.

0:21:20 > 0:21:24- Cefyn had plenty of help whilst - travelling around the country.

0:21:24 > 0:21:28- One was the great-granddaughter - of Lewis Jones...

0:21:28 > 0:21:33- ..a founder of the Welsh settlement - who gave his name to Trelew.

0:21:34 > 0:21:40- Nadine made the 8,000-mile journey - to view Cefyn's slant on her home.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46- It looks wonderful.

0:21:54 > 0:21:58- You can see - the colours of Patagonia.

0:22:01 > 0:22:08- Which of these paintings - remind you of home the most?

0:22:08 > 0:22:11- That's very difficult.

0:22:11 > 0:22:17- Moriah Chapel in Trelew is very - important to everyone in Patagonia.

0:22:17 > 0:22:23- Bethel Chapel in Gaiman...

0:22:23 > 0:22:27- ..plays host to a lot of activities - in the Gaiman.

0:22:29 > 0:22:34- I suspect I wanted the traditional - Welsh chapel of my own memories...
