Norman Literature. For French and Anglo-Norman literature at the time of the Conquest, and an account of the works produced both in England and in France by Anglo-Norman writers, see Paris, Gaston, La Litt. fr. au Moyen Age (XI^e –- XIV^e siècle), 1890, and the Notes Bibliographiques at the end of that volume; Petit de Julleville, Hist. de la Langue et de la Litt. fr. des Origines á 1900, Vols.

The influence of Anglo-Norman Poetry on English verse is discussed at length in Courthope, W. J., A History of English Poetry, Vol. 1 (The Middle Ages: Influence of the Roman Empire–-The Encyclopaedic Education of the Church–-The Feudal System), and interesting details of the treatment of Old English MSS. by Norman monks will be found in Morley’s English Writers, Vol. 11, 107, and Warton’s English Poetry, Vol. 1.

Wace is an honest chronicler, and his clear phrasing shows the typical Norman; the portions of his work dealing with Hastings are of especial interest to us. There is no good edition of the Roman. See Gaston Paris, Romania, IX, and Körting

Ueber die Quellen des Roman de Rou, Leipzig, 1867. For Wace’s Brut–-an excellent rimed version of Geoffrey of Monmouth, in which the Round Table makes its appearance–-and his connection with Layamon and Arthur, see Chapters XI and XII; Fletcher, R.
