Welsh Court Poems is the first of ten volumes in the new Library of Medieval Welsh Literatureseries, which aims to make Middle Welsh literature available to English-speaking scholars and students who wish to study it in its original language. In keeping with that aim, Welsh Court Poems makes the poetry of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries available for the first time to this readership--presenting thirty-three of the 236 poems published by the Centre for Advanced Welsh and Celtic Studies. Each poem appears in the original Middle Welsh accompanied by a full scholarly apparatus in English, providing a point of entry for any scholar interested in Middle Welsh poetry itself or researching comparative literature in other languages, other periods of Welsh literature, and medieval history.

For over a thousand years, Arthur has had widespread appeal and influence like no other literary character or historical figure. Yet, despite the efforts of modern scholars, the earliest references to Arthurian characters are still shrouded in uncertainty. They are mostly found in poetic texts scattered throughout the four great compilations of early and medieval Welsh literature produced between 1250 and 1350. Whilst some are thought to predate their manuscript sources by several centuries, many of these poems are notoriously difficult to date. None of them are narrative in nature and very few focus solely on Arthurian material but they are characterised by an allusiveness which would have been appreciated by their intended audiences in the courts of princes and noblemen the length and breadth of Wales. They portray Arthur in a variety of roles: as a great leader of armies, a warrior with extraordinary powers, slayer of magical creatures, rescuer of prisoners from the Otherworld, a poet and the subject of prophecy. They also testify to the possibility of lost tales about him, his father, Uthr, his son, Llachau, his wife, Gwenhwyfar, and one of his companions, Cai, and associate him with a wide array of both legendary and historical figures. Arthur in Early Welsh Poetry, the fourth volume in the MHRA Library of Medieval Welsh Literature series, provides discussion of each of the references to Arthurian characters in early Welsh poetic sources together with an image from the earliest manuscript, a transliteration, a comprehensive edition, a translation (where possible) and a word-list. The nine most significant texts are interpreted in more detail with commentary on metrical, linguistic and stylistic features.

"Loomis and Johnston have translated 111 poems into idiomatic English, while retaining the wonderful cadences of the Welsh. Sixteen leading poets of medieval Wales, including the acknowledged masters, Dafydd ap Gwilym and Guto'r Glyn, are finally available to English readers. Johnston brings his experience as pioneer editor and critic to this collaboration. Loomis's translations have been praised for their accuracy and their lyrical quality: His Dafydd ap Gwilym: The Poems (MRTS) has been widely acclaimed. The comprehensive introduction is supplemented by prefaces to each poet, generous commentary, a guide to Welsh pronunciation and maps. The volume is a delight to use."
