{"product_id":"the-mabinogion","title":"The Mabinogion","description":"Celtic mythology, Arthurian romance, and an intriguing interpretation of British history--these are just some of the themes embraced by the anonymous authors of the eleven tales that make up the Welsh medieval masterpiece known as the\u003cem\u003e Mabinogion\u003c\/em\u003e. They tell of Gwydion the shape-shifter, who can create a woman out of flowers; of Math the magician whose feet must lie in the lap of a virgin; of hanging a pregnant mouse and hunting a magical boar. Dragons, witches, and giants live alongside kings and heroes, and quests of honour, revenge, and love are set against the backdrop of a country struggling to retain its independence. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new translation, the first for thirty years, recreates the storytelling world of medieval Wales and re-invests the tales with the power of performance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Series: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor over 100 years \u003cem\u003eOxford World's Classics\u003c\/em\u003e has made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe.
