{"product_id":"9780460872973","title":"Mabinogion","description":" Preface by John Updike\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 11 stories of \u003ci\u003eThe Mabinogion\u003c\/i\u003e, first assembled on paper in the fourteenth century, reach far back into the earlier oral traditions of Welsh poetry. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClosely linked to the Arthurian legends—King Arthur himself is a character—they summon up a world of mystery and magic that is still evoked by the Welsh landscape they so vividly describe. Mingling fantasy with tales of chivalry, these stories not only prefigure the later medieval romances, but stand on their own as magnificent evocations of a golden age of Celtic civilization.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis translation of \u003ci\u003eThe Mabinogion \u003c\/i\u003ehas, since its first appearance in 1949, been recognized as a classic in its own right. It was last revised by Gwyn Jones and his wife, Mair, in 1993.
