Abstract
Brut y Tywysogion is a source of fundamental importance to medieval Welsh and British history, but discussion of the chronicle in and of itself has been relatively limited. This paper will first discuss the nature of the chronicle, or more accurately the family of closely related chronicles that can be grouped under the title Brut y Tywysogion. The aim is to establish that the chronicle often preserves many features of older source material, and that consequently there is little basis for seeing the entirety of the work as the product of expansion and literary elaboration on the part of a late thirteenth-century compiler, as was the opinion of the Brut's editor, Thomas Jones. This will then enable close consideration of a distinctive section of the chronicle narrating the first quarter of the twelfth century. It has been argued elsewhere that this section is derived from a near contemporary account written before 1127. Discussion of the text's depiction of contemporary Welsh and English kingship will demonstrate that the ambiguous political sympathies of its author place him firmly in the complex and divided world of Wales in the early twelfth century. Comparison with his contemporaries as historians will also illustrate how this work fits into the context of twelfth-century historical writing more generally.
