Synopsis

An examination of cultural relations between Britain and France from the 8th to the 17th centuries in memory of Ruth Morgan. Her own special interest in historical literature is dominant but the book also embraces manuscript studies and literary criticism. The core of the volume focuses on the central middle ages, and scholars will be especially drawn to an important critical investigation of Henry of Huntingdon's reaction to Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia in the Letter to Warinus.
