BenoiÌt de Sainte-Maure's massive enterprise (it numbers 44,544 lines, of which the last quarter are translated here) was started soon after his celebrated Roman de Troie and at the request of Henry II takes up the task relinquished by Wace in the Roman de Rou. Writing in French in rhyming octosyllabic couplets BenoiÌt provides a monastic, providentialist view of his subject, seeking to reconnect Henry's French-speaking aristocracy to their Continental heritage and to give a wider secular audience access to the Latin sources. Short's translation brings to a wider readership a work that fills a significant gap in the development and character of vernacular historiography." -- Anthony Hunt, University of Oxford (Back cover) 546 $a Translated from the Old French. 600 30 $a Normandy, Dukes of $v Early works to 1800. 600 00 $a William $b I, $c King of England, $d 1027 or 1028-1087 $v Early works to 1800. 600 00 $a William $b II, $c King of England, $d 1056?-1100 $v Early works to 1800. 600 00 $a Robert $b II, $c Duke of Normandy, $d 1054?-1134 $v Early works to 1800. 600 00 $a Henry $b I, $c King of England, $d 1068-1135 $v Early works to 1800. 600 07 $a Henry $b I, $c King of England, $d 1068-1135. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00039976 600 37 $a Normandy, Dukes of. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00218443 600 07 $a Robert $b II, $c Duke of Normandy, $d 1054?-1134. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00081485 600 07 $a William $b I, $c King of England, $d 1027 or 1028-1087. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01858101 600 07 $a William $b II, $c King of England, $d 1056?-1100. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00008143 650 0 $a Nobility $z Normandy $z Normandy $v Early works to 1800. $v Early works to 1800. 650 0 $a Normans $z Great Britain $v Early works to 1800. $v Early works to 1800. 650 0 $a Civilization, Medieval, in literature. 650 0 $a Nobility in literature. 651 0 $a Normandy (France) $x History $y To 1515 $v Early works to 1800. 651 0 $a Normandy (France) $x In literature. 700 1 $a Short, Ian, $d 1939- $e writer of introduction. $e writer of introduction. 830 0 $a Mediaeval sources in translation ; $v 57. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020012612.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190202011832.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DC3D07FEE19111E89124B82197128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
