Mae’n hen bryd i ni ganolbwyntio ar lenyddiaeth gan Gymraes. Gan ein bod wedi dechrau trafod cyfnod y cywydd, rydym ni’n neidio ymlaen ryw ganrif ac ychydig o oes Dafydd ap Gwilym yn y bennod hon er mwyn ystyried gwaith Gwerful Mechain, bardd benywaidd a oedd yn byw ac yn cyfansoddi yn ystod ail hanner y 15fed ganrif. Mae hefyd yn fodd i ni ystyried y modd y mae ‘canonau’ llenyddol Cymraeg – megis y gyfrol ddylanwadol honno, Blodeugerdd Rhydychen o Farddoniaeth Gymraeg – wedi anwybyddu gwaith gan feirdd benywaidd fel Gwerful Mechain. Nodwn hefyd fod Gwerful wedi’i chofio gan rai fel ‘bardd masweddus’ yn bennaf – ysbrydebu anffodus - gan fod ei barddoniaeth yn mynd i’r afael â rhychwant o themâu, gan gynnwys crefydd. Edrychwn yn weddol fanwl ar ei chywydd gorchestol i’r Iesu yn ei ddioddefaint. Cawn gyfle i ystyried barddoniaeth o fath gwahanol iawn ganddi, gwaith sy’n trafod rhyw o safbwynt y fenyw ac yn dychanu canu serch y beirdd gwrywaidd. * * * It’s about time that we concentrate on literature by a Welsh woman. Since we have started discussing the period of the cywydd, we leap forward from the time of Dafydd ap Gwilym a century and more in order to consider the work of Gwerful Mechain, a female poet who lived and composed during the second half of the 15th century. It is also a means of considering how Welsh literary ‘canon’s – like that influential volume, The Oxford Book of Welsh Verse – have ignored the work of female poets like Gwerful Mechain. We also note that Gwerful is remembered chiefly by some as an ‘indecent poet’ – an unfortunate stereotyping - because her work treats a range of themes, including religion. We look in some detail at her masterful cywydd describing the passion of Jesus. We have an opportunity to consider some very different poetry as well, work which discusses sex from a woman’s point of view and satirizes the love poetry of the male bards.
