4.9/5 (11717 ratings)

Description:A Welsh monk of the ninth century, Nennius is traditionally ascribed as the author of the ‘Historia Brittonum’, a complex history of the ancient Britons, blending history with myth. It establishes the genealogies of various Welsh and British rulers, tracing their lineage back to ancient times and legendary figures such as King Arthur. The ‘Historia Brittonum’ would influence the work of Geoffrey of Monmouth and many other medieval chroniclers. Although the text’s accuracy is open to question, it provides a valuable window into the way that the ancient Britons viewed themselves and their history. Delphi’s Medieval Library provides eReaders with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts. This eBook presents the ‘Historia Brittonum’, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
