This is a
critical evaluation of Gruffudd ab yr Ynad Coch’s elegy to Llywelyn ap Gruffudd
(Llywelyn the Last). Llywelyn is considered to be the last ‘Welsh’ prince of
Wales, and died in battle at Cilmeri in 1282, in the course of conquest of
Wales by Edward I. This is an essay prepared by the author for a module in the
School of Welsh on the Literature of the Middle Ages.
