A cunning and successful literary forger, Iolo Morganwg has been a controversial figure within Welsh literary history since his death in 1826. During his lifetime, however, he was largely a figure on the margins of Welsh literary society, who found the task of getting his work into the coveted sphere of print culture a gargantuan one.
