| 1/16/24 | Magicians and Fairies with Andrew Phillip Smith | In the most recent episode of the Welsh Witch podcast I am joined by Andrew Philip Smith, Author of the book "Pages From a Welsh Cunning Man's Book: Magic and Fairies in Nineteenth-Century Wales", which only recently released. In this book Andrew explores the lost "Llyfr Cyfrin" (mystic/secret book) of a Denbighshire cunning man, which included spells to call upon and conjure the Tylwyth Teg, Welsh fairies. Here's what I had to say about the book in an endorsement: "Anyone with an interest in magic, folklore, or even Welsh history in general will find something in this book...read it and revel in the magic of Wales' traditional folk magical culture". During this interview we explore the interplay between fairies and magicians within a Welsh cultural context. Glossary: Llyfr Cyfrin - A "mystic book of secrets", a book kept by a cunning person, where they recorded all their methods and knowledge. Byd y Dyn Hysbys - A book by Kate Bosse Griffiths, published in 1977, which not only explored Welsh cunning craft, but also the Llyfr Cyfrin of an unnamed cunning man from Denbighshire Tylwyth Teg - the name given to fairies in Welsh. Translated, it means 'the fair family'.
