Sobre IBD

A cornerstone of Welsh mythic tradition, this enchanting new edition of the Mabinogion brings Lady Charlotte Guest’s classic 1877 translation back into the light.

Drawn from the medieval Welsh corpus, this collection includes the revered Four Branches of the Mabinogi and some of the earliest surviving stories of King Arthur. Offering insight into the world behind the words, six thoughtful essays introduce the history and endurance of these ancient narratives, while Lady Guest’s own notes, journal entries, and personal reflections reveal the passion of the first woman to carry these tales into English.

A treasury of Celtic lore, Lady Guest’s Mabinogion invites readers to wander deep into the origins of Welsh storytelling, where the old magic still stirs.
