Gerald of Wales (c.1146-c.1223), widely recognized for his
innovative ethnographic studies of Ireland and Wales, was in fact
the author of some twenty-three works which touch upon many aspects
of twelfth-century life. Despite their valuable insights, these
works have been vastly understudied. This collection of essays
reassesses Gerald's importance as a medieval Latin writer and
rhetorician by focusing on his lesser-known works and providing a
fuller context for his more popular writings. This broader view of
his corpus brings to light new evidence for his rhetorical
strategies, political positioning and usage of source material, and
attests to the breadth and depth of his collected works.
