The Mabinogion Vol. 1 by Sir Owen Morgan Edwards and Lady Charlotte Schreiber
"The Mabinogion Vol. 1" by Sir Owen Morgan Edwards and Lady Charlotte Schreiber is a collection of medieval Welsh prose stories compiled in the 12th-13th centuries. These eleven tales draw from ancient oral traditions, weaving together drama, philosophy, romance, tragedy, fantasy, and humor. The collection includes the interconnected Four Branches of the Mabinogi, the hero quest "Culhwch and Olwen," and reimagined Arthurian legends that differ dramatically from later popular versions. Once considered
fragmentary mythology, these sophisticated narratives are now recognized as a masterful storytelling tradition. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
