abstract:
Volume one in the edition of the poetry of Hywel ap Dafydd ab Ieuan ap Rhys, or Hywel Dafi as he is usually known, a poet from Brecknock who flourished between c.1440 and c.1485. Despite being one of the most prolific poets of the fifteenth century, he has not received much attention and only a handful of his poems have appeared in print. He is generally known through his bardic disputes with other poets, with Guto’r Glyn in particular; his poetry to patrons, who lived mostly within a fifteen-mile radius of Brecon, has remained relatively unknown. This edition will therefore fill a large gap in our knowledge, and publishing the poems will allow the modern reader an opportunity to appreciate the important contribution of Hywel Dafi to the praise tradition of late Medieval Wales.

abstract:

According to Siôn Tudur, Raff ap Robert from the parish of Llanynys in the Vale of Clwyd was a ‘landed’ gentleman of independent means, which probably explains the topics and geography of the poems collected and edited in this anthology. The majority of the poems relate to the Vale of Clwyd and surrounding area. There is one praise poem and several elegies, with one dedicated to Tudur Aled and another to John Salisbury, the first husband of Catrin of Berain. In addition, one love cywydd and one devotional cywydd are preserved as well as several englynion, some of which are solemn, and others of a lighter and more amusing tone. Raff engaged with the poets and musicians of his age, and held ymrysonau (poetic debates) with such varied characters as Siôn Tudur and Robin Clidro.

abstract:
Mathau Brwmffild or Matthew of Bromfield was a wandering poet from Maelor Gymraeg (Welsh Maelor) who sang between c.1530 and 1545. Twenty-one of his poems have survived, comprising awdlau, cywyddau and englynion. With the exception of one surviving love poem, they are all traditional eulogistic or elegiac poems. He travelled all over Wales and visited homes in the counties of Anglesey, Caernarfon, Merioneth, Denbigh, Flint, Carmarthen and Cardigan. He praised gentlemen who enjoyed the company of bards, men such as Sir William Gruffudd of Penrhyn, Lewys Gwyn, Trefesgob, and Gruffudd Dwnn, Ystradmerthyr, but he also sang to individuals to whom no other poems have survived.
