Branwen [W
bran, raven, dark;
(g)wen, fair, beauty; i.e. white or sacred raven]. Title character of
Branwen, the second branch of the
Mabinogi. The daughter of
Lly̌r, Branwen is given in marriage to
Matholwch, king of Ireland, by her brother
Bendigeidfran. After an insult to the Irishmen by a half-brother,
Efnisien, Branwen is made to suffer at the hands of her husband's countrymen. Bendigeidfran, learning of this, makes war on Ireland and is killed. Branwen dies of sorrow. Branwen has been compared with
Rhiannon, as she is a giver of bracelets. Her name is confused with, but should be distinguished from, Bronwen [W
bron, breast;
(g)wen, fair]. She seems to be related to the Arthurian figures Brangwaine, Brangoene, Bringvain.
