description: Geoffrey of Monmouths History of the Kings of Britain written in Latin is one of the earliest sources for many of the legends we now associate with King Arthur and his knights. What is little known however is that the tradition of Arthur stories in Latin extended well beyond Geoffrey. This collection offers essays that highlight different aspects of that broader Latin Arthurian tradition.
