Brut y Tywysogyon or the Chronicle of the Princes: Peniarth MS 20 Version

(Cardiff 1952; repr. 1985)

The Brut y Tywysogyon is a valuable source for the history of medieval Wales but also provides important information about contemporary events in England and elsewhere. Whilst there is no surviving copy of the original thirteenth-century Latin text, three independent Welsh translations are extant - the `Peniarth MS. 20 version', `the Red Book of Hergest version' and the `Brenhinedd y Saesson version'.
