Gerald of Wales's Topographia Hibernica: Dates, Versions, Readers (2012)

unapi

Gerald of Wales wrote his text on Ireland, the Topographia Hibernica, in five successive versions, each one longer than the last. This paper suggests dates for each version based on new availability of manuscript evidence and internal textual interpretation. The resulting timeline drastically revises the previous assumption of scholars that Gerald continued to revise the Topographia until the end of his life.
