Waces Brut is an 1155 French verse rendering of Geoffrey of Monmouths earlier Latin history of Britain from the time of Brutus the eponymous founder to the 7th century It includes the Arthurian legend with the first appearance of the Round Table and an unambiguously guilty Guinevere This is an English translation and is presented in parallel with the French text Wace uses Geoffreys earlier stories such as those of King Lear and King Arthur with a lively inventiveness and originality drawing on oral sources and his own knowledge of parts of Britain imaginatively reinterpreting his material his Guinevere is decidedly involved in Arthurs downfall and his St Augustine endows the inhabitants of Colchester with tails He presents a dramatically recurrent pattern of great achievements undercut by domestic treachery and national weakness
