A Child’s Christmas

Mae Dylan Thomas a Richard Burton yn eiconau o Gymru’r ugeinfed ganrif. Maent wedi cynhyrchu straeon am y Nadolig yng Nghymru sy’n cystadlu â straeon byrion Charles Dickens am y Nadolig yn Lloegr yn y bedwaredd ganrif ar bymtheg. Mewn rhai ffyrdd gellir cyhuddo Thomas a Burton o ddyfeisio’r Nadolig yn yr union un ffordd ag y mae Dickens yn gyfrifol am greu’r Nadolig yr ydym yn ei fwynhau gymaint.

Dylan Thomas and Richard Burton are icons of twentieth century Wales. They have produced stories about Christmas in Wales that rival Charles Dickens’ short stories about Christmas in nineteenth century England. In some ways Thomas and Burton can be accused of inventing Christmas in exactly the same way Dickens is responsible for creating the Christmas that we enjoy so wholeheartedly.
