===Romances=== The tales called the ''[[Three Welsh Romances]]'' (''Y Tair Rhamant'') are Welsh-language versions of Arthurian tales that also appear in the work of [[Chrétien de Troyes]].<ref>David Staines (Translator) ''The Complete Romances of Chrétien de Troyes''. Indiana University Press, Bloomington & Indianapolis, 1990, p. 1, 257, 339.</ref> Critics have debated whether the Welsh Romances are based on Chrétien's poems or if they derive from a shared original.<ref>Jessie L. Weston (1993; originally published 1920). ''From Ritual To Romance''. Princeton University Press, Princeton, New Jersey, p. 107.</ref> Though it is arguable that the surviving Romances might derive, directly or indirectly, from Chrétien, it is probable that he in turn based his tales on older, [[Celts|Celtic]] sources.<ref>Roger Sherman Loomis (1991). ''The Grail: From Celtic Myth to Christian Symbol'', Princeton, p. 8. {{ISBN|0-691-02075-2}}</ref> The Welsh stories are not direct translations and include material not found in Chrétien's work. * ''Owain, neu Iarlles y Ffynnon'' (''Owain, or the Countess'' (or ''Lady'') ''of the Fountain'') * ''Peredur fab Efrog'' (''[[Peredur son of Efrawg]]'') * ''Geraint ac Enid'' (''Geraint and Enid'')
