Y Gododin is a medieval Welsh poem attributed to the bard Aneirin. It tells the story of the Battle of Catraeth, a legendary battle fought between the Britons and the invading Angles in the late 6th century. The poem is written in the form of elegies and describes the heroic deeds of the warriors who fought and died in the battle. It is considered one of the most important works of Welsh literature and has been studied and translated by scholars for centuries. The poem is notable for its vivid imagery, complex structure, and use of alliteration and internal rhyme. It provides a glimpse into the culture and society of early medieval Wales and is a testament to the enduring power of oral tradition and storytelling.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
