Owain Glyndŵr

Machynlleth (Day 5)
Any commentary about Owain Glyndŵr quickly becomes a
confusing and contradictory mix of history, myth and
legend. There is no doubt that he existed, and that he
waged war against English forces. However, it is unlikely
that he was gifted with supernatural powers, as was
claimed, and no one can say for certain when he died or
where he was buried. Like the proverbial old soldier, he just
faded away. Shakespeare put boastful words in the mouth
of Glendower in Henry IV, Part I, while allowing Hotspur a
series of caustic put-downs for each utterance, until
Mortimer says: ‘Come, come, no more of this unprofitable
chat.’ Not that the other two took much notice of him –
they’d barely started!
There are some notable dates and events in Owain
Glyndŵr’s life, charting his progress from an apparently
loyal subject of the Crown to his absolute rejection of
English rule and the creation of a Welsh nation-state. The
turning point clearly came at a time when Richard II was
deposed and Henry IV was crowned King of England.
