The Mabinogi

The Mabinogi, or "The Four Branches of the Mabinogi," is a collection of medieval Welsh tales that form a cornerstone of Celtic mythology and literature. Written in Middle Welsh, these stories intertwine folklore, adventure, and the lives of legendary figures, such as Pwyll, Bran the Blessed, and Arthurian connections. Each branch presents themes of love, betrayal, and heroism, reflecting the culture and beliefs of early medieval Wales. Together, they offer insights into the spiritual and social values of the time, making them significant not only in Welsh literature but also in the broader context of European mythological traditions.
