This Element is a contribution to the ongoing debate on what it
meant to publish a book in manuscript. It offers case-studies of
three twelfth-century Anglo-Norman historians: William of
Malmesbury, Henry of Huntingdon, and Geoffrey of Monmouth. It
argues that the contemporary success and rapid attainment of
canonical authority for their histories was in significant measure
the result of successfully conducted publishing activities. These
activities are analysed using the concept of a 'publishing circle'.
This concept, it is suggested, may have wider utility in the study
of authorial publishing in a manuscript culture. This Element is
also available as Open Access.
