SGWRS AM DDIM AC ARWYDDO LLYFRAU / FREE TALK AND BOOKSIGNING - Arthur, arweinydd coll y Brythoniaid /Arthur, lost leader of the Britons, (gan/with Martin Kaye)

7:00 PM

Artist, and author Martin Kaye will provide an intriguing illustrated talk ‘Arthur - the Lost Leader of the Britons’, exploring the man behind the myths, followed by an insight into the history and inspiration behind his novel ‘The Fallen and the Fled’, a mystery historical romance set at the end of the Roman rule in Ruthin, Denbigh, and Camarthen.

Ask anyone to name a list of famous kings; you can be sure that King Arthur will be among the top five. The tales and deeds of the legendary king have captured our imagination for hundreds of years, but in reality is there any evidence to show that a King Arthur ever really existed? Join me as we peel back the myths and legends in search of this last leader of the Britons and discover a forgotten past, a period of our history lost in the mists of time.

About Martin - Having grown up in history-steeped Ruthin, Martinis the author of a series of supernatural historical novels taking place between the last days ofRoman Britain, and present-day North Wales.

Bydd yr artist a’r awdur Martin Kaye yn rhoi sgwrs ddarluniadol ddiddorol ‘Arthur – Arweinydd Coll y Brythoniaid’, gan ganfod mwy am y dyn y tu ôl i’r mythau, cyn sôn am yr hanes a’r ysbrydoliaeth y tu ôl i’w nofel ‘The Fallen and the Fled’, nofel ramant hanesyddol a dirgel wedi'i gosod yng nghyfnod diwedd teyrnasiad y Rhufeiniaid yn Rhuthun, Dinbych a Chaerfyrddin.

Os gofynnwch i unrhyw un restru enwau brenhinoedd enwog, gallwch fod yn sicr y bydd y Brenin Arthur ymhlith y pump uchaf. Mae chwedlau a gweithredoedd y brenin chwedlonol hwn wedi dal ein dychymyg ers cannoedd o flynyddoedd, ond a oes unrhyw dystiolaeth i ddangos bod Brenin Arthur erioed wedi bodoli mewn gwirionedd? Ymunwch â mi i fynd trwy’r mythau a’r chwedlau i chwilio am arweinydd olaf y Brythoniaid a darganfod gorffennol sy’n atgof, cyfnod o’n hanes a gollwyd yn niwloedd amser.
