Layamon's Brut; Or Chronicle Of Britain V2 is a book that contains a poetic semi-Saxon paraphrase of the Brut of Wace. The author of this book is Frederic Madden. The Brut of Wace is a historical work that tells the story of Britain from the time of its mythical founding by Brutus, a Trojan prince, to the Norman Conquest of 1066. Layamon's Brut is a Middle English poem that is based on Wace's work but also includes additional material. The poem is written in a unique dialect of Middle English known as semi-Saxon. This book is the second volume of the Layamon's Brut series and provides a complete description of the events that occurred during the reign of King Arthur. The book is a valuable source of information for historians and scholars interested in the history of Britain and the development of the English language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
