Ford & Bailie:, 1991. 241 pages. "The Middle Welsh religious lyric has never been accessible for study by the medievalist who reads little or no Welsh. I have chosen sixteen poems, ranging from the marwysgafn (deathbed poem) of Meilyr Brydydd, the first of the Gogynfeirdd whose names and work are known to us, to the meditative lyrics attributed to Gruffudd ab yr Ynad Coch and the marwysgafn of Bleddyn Fardd, the last of the court poets who composed before the end of Welsh independence in 1282." FINE HARDCOVER, FINE DUST JACKET.. Hard Cover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Von Händler/Antiquariat, Kealey's Korner.
The early Welsh religious lyric is a fascinating genre. Composed for the most part by laymen who were professional court poets, it is deeply rooted in the conventions and assumptions of secular praise poetry. At the same time, the orthodox, if somewhat rudimentary, Augustinian theology of the poems illumines the history of lay Christianity in medieval Britain. This volume presents the texts of sixteen religious lyrics of the 12th and 13th centuries, accompanied by fresh and engaging translations which reflect a scholarly command of the language and a sensitivity to the intent and aesthetic of the poets. The substantial introduction to the literary, historical, theological and devotional contexts of the poetry make this important body of verse accessible, for the first time, to a wide range of readers.
