Synopsis

"" Layamon's Brut or Chronicle of Britain V1"" is a book that was published in 1847. It is a poetic semi-Saxon paraphrase of the Brut of Wace. The book is a historical account of Britain and its people, written in a poetic style. It is based on the work of Wace, a French poet who wrote a similar account of Britain in the 12th century. Layamon's version is written in semi-Saxon, a form of Old English that was spoken in the 12th century. The book is divided into sections that cover different periods of British history, from the legendary King Arthur to the Norman Conquest. It is a valuable source of information about the early history of Britain and its people, and is an important work of medieval literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
