| book description |

Gerald of Wales (c.1146-c.1223), widely recognised for his innovative ethnographic studies of Ireland and Wales, was the author of works that touch upon many aspects of twelfth-century life. Despite their valuable insights, these works numbering twenty-three have been vastly understudied, and the collection of essays in the present volume reassesses Gerald's importance as a medieval Latin writer by focusing on the lesser-known works, and by providing a fuller context for his better-known writings. This broader view of his corpus brings to light new evidence for the rhetorical strategies that he employed, his political positioning, and his use of source material, in attesting to the breadth and depth of his work.
