Un o'r pethau a oedd yn arbennig am Kevin fel cydweithiwr oedd ei fod bob amser yn bresennol yn adeilad Aberconwy – lle’r oedd yn mwynhau gweithio, yfed coffi (stori ynddi'i hun), â’i glustffonau ymlaen. Pe bai Aberconwy ar agor – byddai i'w weld yn ei ystafell, D06, ar y trydydd llawr, ei ddrws ar agor, yn groesawgar tuag at bawb. Gan ei fod yn berson poblogaidd, roedd Kevin yn cael llawer o ymwelwyr – nifer ohonynt yn fyfyrwyr iddo; bu'n Diwtor Personol i dros 100 o fyfyrwyr Cyd-anrhydedd – camp syfrdanol ynddi'i hun. Roedd Kevin yn boblogaidd gyda staff hefyd ac wrth ei fodd â’r sgyrsiau amrywiol y byddent yn eu rhannu ag o. Roedd y rhain yn fwy na chydweithwyr; roedden nhw’n ffrindiau ac yn 'deulu'. The assignments will require a thorough understanding of the topic derived from secondary reading. At this level the students are expected to include in their reading, recent research published in the leading journals.

Rosemarie Garland-Thomson (New York: New York University Press, 1996), 1. The seventeenth century saw the publication of several more midwifery manuals in the English vernacular, including Jacques Guillemeau’s Child-Birth or, the Happy Deliverie of Women (1612), which is a translation from the 1609 French work De L’heureux Accouchement des Femmes. In Guillemeau’s midwifery manual, he discusses conjoined twins as monstrous, writing “difficulty of delivery happens also … if he be a Monster, having two heads, two bodies, four arms, or legs.” Footnote 18 Although Guillemeau’s work does not register a more sensational approach to monstrous births, the value that the translation of his book offers for my inquiry into reproduction, monstrosity, and print derives from Guillemeau’s insistence on the tested veracity of the knowledge included in his text. In the beginning of his first chapter, Guillemeau advocates a thorough and knowledgeable examination of the woman to determine whether she is pregnant: “A Chirurgion [Surgeon] must bee very circumspect, in determining whether a woman be conceiued, or no; because many haue preiudiced their knowledge, and discretion, by iudging rashly hereof.” Footnote 19 Guillemeau’s assertion that knowledge often contains prejudice offers insight into the ways in which the delivery of a “monster” would become typical fare for a midwifery manual. Unlike Paré’s book, Guillemeau’s practical advice itself can be read as one with a singular purpose: the successful process of childbirth, no matter what type of delivery, no matter what the child or children look like. The marker of difference, here described as monster, denotes contemporary language usage, especially from Raynalde and other sources, perhaps including Paré, but does not seem to echo their prejudices.

Whilst still doing a PhD, Kevin landed his first academic job as a researcher at the University of Glamorgan. He showed here qualities that he would retain for his entire academic career: a real work ethic and an ability to handle different demands and workloads. By the new millennium, Kevinlooked to his alma mater for new job openings, being appointed as a Teaching Assistant at Cardiff Business School (CARBS) in the Economics Section. His role here was to help Professor Derek Matthews who taught the Economic History module which remains compulsory on the economics programmes today.Whilst working as a Teaching Assistant, Kevin completed and was awarded his PhD in the School of History – a great achievement considering the demands of caring for a young family and of new teaching duties. Young says he was drawn to the role by Emilia Di Girolama’s script, which focuses not so much on Stagg as the undercover cop (codenamed Lizzie James, and played by Niamh Algar) tasked with trying to make him confess. With no forensic evidence found at the scene, the case going cold and the press baying for a conviction, detectives called on Dr Paul Britton (played by Eddie Marsan) to compose a psychological profile of a “deviant” killer that just so happened to fit Stagg.o'n graddedigion mewn cyflogaeth a/neu’n astudio ymhellach, i fod i ddechrau swydd neu gwrs newydd, neu wneud gweithgareddau eraill fel teithio.

That job meant a great deal to me, partly because it was filmed in Cardiff and I got to speak in my Cardiff accent,” says Young, who is keen to keep working in Wales. He returned to his homeland after two high-profile theatrical triumphs in the West End, starring as Albert Narracott in National’s production of War Horse and as Christopher in The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. But while he yearns to return to the theatre, he also has high hopes for Welsh TV drama. “My dream is that just as Scandi noirs have made it OK for audiences to watch subtitled dramas, so the same might happen for Welsh dramas.” His TV roles was in the Aberystwyth-set crime noir Hinterland (in Welsh: Y Gwyll) and the Carmarthenshire-set thriller Keeping Faith (in Welsh: Un Bore Mercher, ie. One Wednesday Morning”) are part of that dream. These series were shot in both Welsh and English. “You’d shoot in one language and then go again in the other language immediately afterwards.” Do you get double the money for doing that? “Er, no. Just double the work. Not that I’m complaining.” H-Frauen-L: History of Women and Gender in Early Modern Europe, H-Net Discussion List, editorial committee, 1998-2002.
