Summary "Gwaith Samuel Roberts" by Samuel Roberts is a collection of literary works written in the mid-19th century. The book presents the life and contributions of Samuel Roberts, a notable figure from Wales, detailing his upbringing, familial context, and his evolution into a significant voice in Welsh agriculture and social justice. It also showcases various writings reflecting his thoughts, hymns, and poems that address the struggles and aspirations of the Welsh people. At the start of this collection, we are introduced to Samuel Roberts, born in 1800 in Llanbrynmair, Wales. The text describes his early life, emphasizing the influence of his family, particularly his father's position as a minister and the family's deep connection to religious and societal matters. We learn about Roberts’ emigration to America and his disillusionment with the New World, alongside his determination to fight against various forms of oppression faced by farmers in Wales. Through the opening, the groundwork is laid for a rich exploration of his poetic works and social commentary, illustrating his importance within his community and the broader Welsh culture.
