Description

This collection of Celtic Mythology contains eleven tales by anonymous authors, collected and transcribed by Lady Charlotte Guest in 1838-45. The earliest prose stories of the literature of Britain are of widely different types. They present the classic hero quest, historic legends and also a very different King Arthur than the later popular versions of his story. The readers will find a huge bulk of drama, philosophy, romance, tragedy, humour and fantasy. There are dragons, shape-shifters, magicians, witches, giants, virgins, heroes and kings. This wonderful edition of the Mabinogion brings the Welsh medieval world of legends and myths back to life.
