The Writing of History in Twelfth-Century England.

Dr. Partner sets out to describe, analyse, compare and contrast three English historians of the twelfth century: Henry of Huntingdon, William of Newburgh and Richard of Devizes. She explains how they understood history writing, how they went about it and how far they measure up to the standards of modern historiography.
