Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gerald the Welshman Gerald's early education was undertaken by his uncle, David fitz-gerald, Bishop of St. David's (called by him David II., to distinguish him from the patron saint). The state Of learning in Wales in those days was at the lowest ebb: and a Rolls editor argues, from the absence Of all notice of any place of learning in Wales in all Gerald's writings, the dearth of Welsh names of literary note in that century. But there would appear to have been some incitements to literature in the age which produced the famous trio of Welsh scholars, Gerald, Map, and Geoffrey Of Monmouth. And the learning Of Gerald, the universal scholar, as Mr. Freeman calls him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Gerald of Wales by : A. Joseph McMullen
Download or read book Gerald of Wales written by A. Joseph McMullen and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2018-02-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gerald of Wales (c.1146–c.1223), widely recognized for his innovative ethnographic studies of Ireland and Wales, was in fact the author of some twenty-three works which touch upon many aspects of twelfth-century life. Despite their valuable insights, these works have been vastly understudied. This collection of essays reassesses Gerald’s importance as a medieval Latin writer and rhetorician by focusing on his lesser-known works and providing a fuller context for his more popular writings. This broader view of his corpus brings to light new evidence for his rhetorical strategies, political positioning and usage of source material, and attests to the breadth and depth of his collected works.

Book Synopsis A Short History of Wales by : Owen Edwards
Download or read book A Short History of Wales written by Owen Edwards and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Wales This little book is meant for those who have never read any Welsh history before. It is not taken for granted that the reader knows either Latin or Welsh. A fuller outline may be read in The Story of Wales, in the "Story of the Nations" series; and a still fuller one in The Welsh People of Rhys and Brynmor Jones. Of fairly small and cheap books in various periods I may mention Rhys' Celtic Britain, Owen Rhoscomyl's Flame Bearers of Welsh History, Henry Owen's Gerald the Welshman, Bradley's Owen Glendower, Newell's Welsh Church, and Ree's Protestant Nonconformity in Wales.

Book Synopsis The History and Topography of Ireland by : Gerald of Wales
Download or read book The History and Topography of Ireland written by Gerald of Wales and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-06-29 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gerald of Wales was among the most dynamic and fascinating churchmen of the twelfth century. A member of one of the leading Norman families involved in the invasion of Ireland, he first visited there in 1183 and later returned in the entourage of Henry II. The resulting Topographia Hiberniae is an extraordinary account of his travels. Here he describes landscapes, fish, birds and animals; recounts the history of Ireland's rulers; and tells fantastical stories of magic wells and deadly whirlpools, strange creatures and evil spirits. Written from the point of view of an invader and reformer, this work has been rightly criticized for its portrait of a primitive land, yet it is also one of the most important sources for what is known of Ireland during the Middle Ages.
