His firsthand accounts of Archbishop Baldwin's journey provide invaluable insights into the Welsh society of the time. Giraldus' expertise in Welsh affairs and his passion for preserving historical events led him to write this detailed itinerary of the Archbishop's travels through Wales.

Book The Journey Through Wales and the Description of Wales

Download or read book The Journey Through Wales and the Description of Wales written by Gerald of Wales and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2004-05-27 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholar, churchman, diplomat and theologian, Gerald of Wales was one of the most fascinating figures of the Middle Ages and The Journey Through Wales describes his eventful tour of the country as a missionary in 1188. In a style reminiscent of a diary, Gerald records the day-to-day events of the mission, alongside lively accounts of local miracles, folklore and religious relics such as Saint Patrick's Horn, and eloquent descriptions of natural scenery that includes the rugged promontory of St David's and the vast snow-covered panoramas of Snowdonia. The landscape is evoked in further detail in The Description, which chronicles the everyday lives of the Welsh people with skill and affection. Witty and gently humorous throughout, these works provide a unique view into the medieval world.

Book excerpt: The Itinerary of Archbishop Baldwin through Wales Ancient British Travel Guides Ancient Travel Books Top 100 Travel Books Giraldus Cambrensis - Gerald of Wales Translator - Sir Richard Colt Hoare Gerald of Wales (Latin: Giraldus Cambrensis; Welsh: Gerallt Gymro; c. 1146 - c. 1223) was archdeacon of Brecon and chronicler of his times. Born c. 1146 at Manorbier Castle in Pembrokeshire, Wales, he was of mixed Norman and Welsh des¢ he is also known as Gerald de Barri. Gerald became a royal clerk and chaplain to King Henry II of England in 1184, first acting mediator between the crown and Prince Rhys ap Gruffydd. He was chosen to accompany one of the king's sons, John, in 1185 on John's first expedition to Ireland. This was the catalyst for his literary career; his work Topographia Hibernica (first published 1188, and revised at least four more times) is an account of his journey to Irel∧ Gerald always referred to it as his Topography, though "History" is the more accurate term. He followed it up, shortly afterwards, with an account of Henry's conquest of Ireland, the Expugnatio Hibernica. Both works were revised and added to several times before his death, and display a notable degree of Latin learning, as well as a great deal of prejudice against a foreign people. Gerald was proud to be related to some of the Norman invaders of Ireland, such as his maternal uncle Robert Fitz-Stephen and Raymond FitzGerald, and his influential account, which portrays the Irish as barbaric savages, gives important insight into Anglo-Norman views of Ireland and the history of the invasion.
