The Mabinogion Vol. 3

"The Mabinogion Vol. 3" by Sir Owen Morgan Edwards and Lady Charlotte Schreiber is a collection of medieval Welsh prose stories compiled in the 12th–13th centuries. These eleven tales span diverse genres—drama, philosophy, romance, tragedy, fantasy, and humor—drawn from ancient oral traditions. The collection includes the Four Branches of the Mabinogi, the hero quest "Culhwch and Olwen," and stories featuring a radically different King Arthur than later portrayals. Once considered fragmentary mythology, these sophisticated narratives blend Celtic tradition with Anglo-French influences, continuing to inspire artists and writers worldwide.
