Excerpt from Layamon: Versuch Über Seine Quellen
Sollte dem hier gebotenen Versuch die Rekonstruktion einer solchen normannischen Quelle gelungen sein, so bestätigt sich nur der Hinweis des Dichters selbst auf Wace als sein Vorbild (i und anderseits ist es vielleicht gut zu wissen, dafs die Frage nach La3amon's keltischen Quellen ebenso wenig wie etwa die nach Shakespeare's dänischen Quellen für den Hamlet existiert.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intricate relationship between the literary traditions of England and Normandy during the Middle Ages. It explores the sources of the massive historical poem "Brut" by the English poet Layamon, written around 1200. The author argues that Layamon's work was primarily based on a lost version of the "Roman de Brut" by the Norman poet Wace, rather than on direct access to earlier British sources. Through a close examination of Layamon's text and a comparison with surviving Wace manuscripts, the book uncovers the complex interplay of cultural influences that shaped the development of Arthurian literature. The insights offered in this study shed new light on the transmission and transformation of literary traditions across linguistic and cultural boundaries.
