More about the book
Mabinogion is a collection of stories from ancient Wales, gathered and edited in various versions between the 11th and 13th centuries. These are "exemplary tales," foundational narratives from which every aspiring bard began their training. The main characters of these Celtic stories include well-known figures from later literature such as King Arthur, Macbeth, Lancelot, and King Lear. It is important to remember that Celtic culture was once the most significant alternative to Latin culture in Europe.
