Latin text edited by Michael D. Reeve; Translated by Neil Wright. An edition and traslation of the 'De gestis Britonum' [Historia Regum Britanniae]. This imaginative history of the Britons, written in the twelfth century, contains the first appearance of many mythical figures, King Lear and King Arthur among them. It rapidly became a `bestseller' across the British Isles and Europe: over 200 manuscripts survive. Here, an authoritative version of the text is presented with a facing translation, prepared especially for the volume. It also contains a full introduction and notes.
