Publisher's Synopsis
The Gododdin Poems is a book of translated poetry by William F. Skene. The poems are from the Welsh language and tell the story of the Gododdin, a tribe that lived in what is now Scotland during the 6th century. The book includes a historical introduction to the Gododdin and their culture, as well as a detailed analysis of the poems themselves. Skene's translation captures the beauty and complexity of the original Welsh, making this book a valuable resource for anyone interested in Celtic literature and history.The men went to Catraeth with the day: Have not the best of battles their disgrace? They made biers a matter of necessity. With blades full of vigour in defence of Baptism. This is best before the alliance of kindred.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
