The Mabinogion

Drawing from medieval Welsh manuscripts, The Mabinogion weaves together myth, history, and legend in a series of interconnected tales brimming with mystery and heroism. Battles with otherworldly forces, powerful women, and magical beasts illuminate the values and fears of a deeply symbolic culture. From the tragic love of Pwyll and Rhiannon to the adventures of Culhwch and Olwen, the stories reveal a world where the supernatural intertwines with the mortal and the line between fate and free will is perilously thin.

Lady Charlotte Elizabeth Guest (1812-1895), later Lady Charlotte Schreiber, was an English translator and business woman, best known for her pioneering translation into English of the major medieval work, The Mabinogion.
