Wilfred Melville Bennetto (1902–1994) was a Cornish poet and novelist. He was elected a member of Gorseth Kernow under the Bardic name of ''Abransek'' ('Bushy-browed One') in 1968.〔(List of bards by decade - 1960s on Gorseth website. )〕 His poetry celebrated popular contemporary figures in Cornish life as well as the historical and mythological characters favoured in Cornish poetry at the time. He wrote ''An Gurun Wosek a Geltya'' ('The Bloody Crown of Celtia'), the first full-length novel in Cornish. It is written from a monarchist perspective, it is a romantic thriller set against the background of contemporary subversion and conflict in the Celtic countries. ==Publications as Melville Bennetto== *''An Lef Kernewek'' (1969) *''Kernow'' (1974). *''Whethlow Pymp Mynysen'' Penzance :Printed by Headland Printing (1974) *''Whethlow Kernewek (Cornish Stories).''
