Bag om Gai Saber

Gai Saber: Tales and Songs is a book written by Maurice Henry Hewlett and published in 1916. The book is a collection of traditional Breton folk tales and songs that were passed down through generations in the region of Brittany, France. The author spent a considerable amount of time researching and collecting these stories and songs, which were then translated into English for a wider audience.The book is divided into two parts: the first part contains the tales and the second part contains the songs. The tales are a mix of magical and mystical stories, featuring characters such as witches, fairies, and giants. The stories are rich in detail and vividly describe the landscapes and customs of Brittany. They offer a glimpse into the culture and beliefs of the Breton people.The songs in the book are traditional Breton folk songs that have been sung for centuries. They cover a range of themes, including love, nature, and work. The lyrics are presented in both Breton and English, and the author provides notes on the origins and meanings of the songs.Overall, Gai Saber: Tales and Songs is a fascinating glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Brittany. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in folklore, mythology, and traditional music.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
