Dafydd ap Gwilym - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (557 words)
As one of noble birth it seems Dafydd did not belong to the guild of professional poets in medieval Wales, and yet the poetic tradition had been strong in his family for generations.
The influence of wider European ideas of courtly love, as exemplified in the troubador poetry of Provençal, is seen as a significant influence on Dafydd's poetry.
Dafydd's work is full of his own feelings and experiences.
