Description

Not long after the Norman invasion, William of Malmesbury was seeing it as an unmitigated disaster, while Geoffrey of Monmouth cast the Anglo-Saxons as cruel invaders and resurrected the old Arthurian myths. This last of the trilogy on the Anglo-Saxons explores their legacy, and asks whether they have any meaning in modern multi-cultural England.
