His writings were enormously popular throughout the western European world, and he is justly credited with bringing 'The Matter of Britain' (including, most notably, the figure of Arthur) to a much wider audience. The vast popularity of this material has persisted to the present day, mainly but not solely in the interest shown in 'King Arthur'. This book illustrates the close ties between Geoffrey's notion of British and Arthurian society and other materials from medieval Wales and Ireland.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: HistoryBook Series: Writers of WalesRelease Year: 2010 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
