Arthurian Chronicles Roman de Brut

Wace and Layamon

The Arthurian Chronicles Roman De Brut is a historical fiction book that tells the story of King Arthur and his knights. The book is written by two authors, Wace and Layamon, and is a combination of two separate works. The first part of the book is the Roman de Brut, written by Wace in the 12th century. It is a retelling of the history of Britain, starting with the arrival of Brutus of Troy and ending with the reign of King Arthur. The second part of the book is Layamon's Brut, written in the 13th century. It is a continuation of Wace's work and tells the story of Arthur's battles with the Saxons and his eventual death. The book is written in Old French and Middle English and is considered one of the most important works of Arthurian literature. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table.Translated By Eugene Mason.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
