Roman De Brut by Wace

This medieval narrative poem, written in the 12th century, offers a romanticized account of the legendary history of Britain, tracing its origins from the fall of Troy to the reign of King Arthur. It weaves together myth, legend, and history, presenting a tapestry of heroic figures, epic battles, and the founding of a nation. The work is notable for its introduction of the Round Table, a symbol of chivalric equality, and for popularizing the tales of Arthurian legend, which would inspire countless adaptations and expansions in the centuries to follow.
