A popular collection of ancient Celtic myths from Wales, with Arthurian tales, and part of a grand tradition that links Irish, Scottish and European culture. A celtic-origin masterpiece of myth and legend the Mabinogion is a translation from Medieval Welsh of four cycles of tales, based on literature of the 12th and 13th centrury, although that is thought to be based on centuries of oral storytelling. Stories of the underworld, a war with Ireland, enchantment and magical creatures are accompanied by tales of King Arthur and his court. 10 b/w illustrations
