Kate Roberts is acknowledged as a leading short story writer and novelist, but she began her literary career as a playwright. Her name is linked to about 15 plays, as translator, co-author and as playwright in her own right. This volume sees, for the first time, the publication of three complete, original plays by Kate Roberts.

A pack of four small books edited by Dafydd Glyn Jones: Carolau Haf Huw Morys a'i Gyfoeswyr, Cerddi Talhaiarn, Tri Hen Brydydd (Mathew Owen, John Morgan, Elis ab Elis) and Emynau Morgan Rhys.

They represent Welsh muse in the second half of the 17th and early years of the 18th centuries, and this is an invitation to the readers of today to study poems and a period that has been largely ignored.

Here, between 'O agor fy llygaid i weled...' and 'Mae drws trugaredd heb ei gau', we find some of the most famous lines and verses of Welsh hymnology, i.e. the work of Morgan Rhys, one of the great hymnwriters of Carmarthenshire.

A selection of the carols sung on Mayday mornings in Wales four hundred years ago by joyful throngs to rouse families, wish them well, welcome the coming of summer, celebrate the renewal of life and thank God for his gifts.
