This lecture contains a survey of the interrelationship between the medieval literature of Wales, both Welsh and Latin, and the rivers, lakes and springs of the country. It ranges from Gildas to the late medieval poets. The emphasis is on how people interpret and attribute meaning to the natural world through the medium of words.
