Fe wnaeth ddisgyblion blynyddoedd 5 a 6 Ysgol Gynradd Gatholig Padarn Sant wrando’n astud wrth i’r Prif Weinidog ddarllen detholiadau Cymraeg a Saesneg o chwedlau enwocaf Cymru – ceinciau’r Mabinogi.


Ar Ddiwrnod Rhyngwladol y Llyfr mae ysgolion ledled y wlad yn cymryd rhan mewn ymgyrch ‘rhannu stori’, gyda’r bwriad o danio dychymyg pobl a gwneud yr arfer o rannu straeon yn un am oes.


Yn ystod eu hymweliad â'r Llyfrgell cafodd y disgyblion gyfle i archwilio ffacsimili o lawysgrif Llyfr Gwyn Rhydderch, sy’n cynnwys y casgliad cynharaf y gwyddys amdanynt o’r chwedlau y cyfeirir atynt heddiw fel y Mabinogion. Mae’r straeon yn parhau i ysbrydoli ffilmiau a llyfrau ledled y byd.


Credir bod storïwyr Celtaidd wedi crwydro Prydain a thu hwnt yn rhannu straeon er mwyn derbyn bwyd a lloches, cyn i’r chwedlau gael eu cofnodi ar ffurf ysgrifenedig. Lluniwyd Llyfr Gwyn Rhydderch yng nghanol y bedwaredd ganrif ar ddeg ac mae’n rhan o gasgliad trysorau’r Llyfrgell Genedlaethol.


Fe wnaeth arbenigwr o Adran Archifau a Llawysgrifau'r Llyfrgell arddangos rhai o weithiau gweledol eiconig Margaret Jones i’r Prif Weinidog, darluniau sydd wedi siapio’r ffordd y mae pobl yn dychmygu’r Mabinogion.


Meddai Y Gwir Anrh Mark Drakeford AC, Prif Weinidog Cymru:



> “Rhannu straeon yw ein ffordd fwyaf swynol o gyfathrebu, a dylem fachu ar unrhyw gyfle i annog ein plant i ymgolli yn eu hud. Trwyddynt, mae bydysawd o bosibiliadau diddiwedd yn tanio dychymyg heb ffiniau. Trwyddynt, gellir magu gwell ddealltwriaeth o fydoedd cymhleth a gwahanol safbwyntiau. Gadewch inni fod yn genedl sy’n ysgogi ein pobl ifanc i garu darllen ar Ddiwrnod y Llyfr, drwy barhau â’n traddodiad diwylliannol hir o rannu straeon.


Meddai Pedr ap Llwyd, Prif Weithredwr a Llyfrgellydd Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru:



> “Pleser o’r mwyaf oedd croesawu Prif Weinidog Cymru yma i Lyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru i lansio ymgyrch cenedlaethol ’Rhannu Straeon’. O gofio mai un o brif flaenoriaethau’r Llyfrgell yw cynnig mynediad i blant a phobl ifanc at hanes a diwylliant Cymru a'u  hysbrydoli i ddysgu a meithrin sgiliau newydd, ni ellid fod wedi dewis gwell lleoliad i'r lansiad.

> “Roedd yr ymweliad yn gyfle hefyd i’r Prif Weinidog weld cefnogaeth Llywodraeth Cymru ar waith ym mwrlwm a phrysurdeb diwylliannol y Llyfrgell Genedlaethol, wrth i ni baratoi at ddatblygu cynllun strategol nesaf y Llyfrgell a'r weledigaeth ar gyfer y cyfnod 2021\-26\.







Translation:


 
Year 5 and 6 pupils of St Padarn's Catholic Primary School listened intently as the First Minister read extracts in Welsh and English from Wales’s infamous books of myths and legends \- the Mabinogi strands.


Schools across the country are taking part in World Book Day’s ‘share a story’ campaign, in a bid to spark imaginations and make story sharing a habit of a lifetime.


During their visit to the Library, the pupils got to examine a facsimile of the White Book of Rhydderch which contains the earliest known copy of the collection of legends referred to today as the Mabinogion. These tales continue to inspire films, television series and books around the world.


It is thought that Celtic storytellers wandered Britain and beyond sharing stories for food and lodging before ending up in written form, with the Mabinogi being the oldest recorded prose of its kind. The White Book of Rhydderch was produced in the mid\-fourteenth century and is part of the National Library's collection of treasures.


An expert from the Library's Archives and Manuscripts Department showcased to the First Minister some of Margaret Jones' iconic visual illustrations that have shaped the way people imagine the Mabinogion.


First Minister Mark Drakeford said:



> "Stories are our most captivating way of communicating, and we should grasp any opportunity to encourage our children to get lost in their magic. Through them a universe of endless possibilities spark limitless imaginations. Through them complex worlds and different viewpoints can be understood. Let’s be a nation that ignites the love of reading in our young people on World Book Day by continuing our long cultural tradition of storytelling.


Pedr ap Llwyd, Chief Executive and Librarian of the National Library of Wales, said:



> “It gives me great pleasure to welcome the First Minister here to the National Library of Wales as part of the national 'Share a Story' campaign. Given that one of the Library's main priorities is to offer children and young people access to the history and culture of Wales and to inspire them to learn and develop new skills, a better location could not have been chosen!

> “The visit is also a great opportunity for the First Minister see the support of the Welsh Government in action as part of the cultural vibrancy and bustle of the National Library as we prepare to develop the Library's strategic plan and vision for the period of 2021\-26\.
