Gwilym Morus-Baird
About this listen
Few authors are able to discuss the original Taliesin myth in as much depth as Dr. Gwilym Morus-Baird. As a native Welsh speaker and scholar, he has studied the Welsh bardic tradition from the inside, giving listeners insights few others have even guessed at.
In this groundbreaking exploration, Dr Gwilym Morus-Baird tells the many tales behind the story and draws out the deeper meanings of the original myth. As one of the most complete studies of the greatest Celtic bard out there, this book is a must-have for anyone seriously studying Celtic myth, be they students, researchers, druids, or pagans. It reveals the ancient roots of Taliesin’s myth in the Celtic tradition, and interprets many of the symbols, themes and meanings embedded in this important tale.
The book presents new insights not only into Taliesin himself, but also the central figure of Ceridwen, the ancient symbol of her cauldron, the mystical relationship between awen and Annwfn, and how all of these elements relate to the Welsh bardic tradition.

The quality of the delivery.
This is a great book for anybody interested in. exploring the Cymric mythology. It delivers a well balanced understanding of the complex nature of the Bardic tradition in Wales. The narration is excellent, a great storyteller and the delivery is as if the great bard himself was reading it to you.
