In answer to a question that comes up every now and again:

Why focus on interpretation? Shouldn’t we just cover the historical facts and let people decide for themselves what something means?

Unfortunately, sometimes the facts just aren't enough . . .

If you're intending to follow the new course starting tonight (8pm UK Time), please log in and take a look at the first chapter of T he Native Tales of the Mabinogion, where you will find the Zoom link.

If you can't make it, I'll also be going live on the Celtic Source Facebook page at 9pm Uk Time, to answer another humdinger of a question:

What’s the function of channeling when it comes to poetry? What does it mean that the bard is essentially pretending to talk in another voice? What creative purpose does this serve?
