Listen to extracts from The Mabinogion

Download audio extracts of tales from the great Welsh story collection, in the vivid new translation by Sioned Davies.

Sioned Davis, Chair of Welsh at Cardiff University, reads three extracts from her sparkling new translation of the great medieval Celtic tales.

Gwydion the shapeshifter, who creates a woman out of flowers... Math the magician whose feet must lie in the lap of a virgin... The hanging of a pregnant mouse, and the hunting of a magical boar. Dragons, witches, giants, and Arthurian heroes; quests of honour, love, and revenge.

The eleven fantastical tales that make up The Mabinogion are jewels of medieval storytelling, the heart of Wales's folklore, and an unsurpassed source of Celtic mythology.

The Mabinogion is published on St David's Day, 1 March 2007.
