Areas that receive particular attention are William's historical writings, his historical vision and interpretation of England's past; William and kingship; William's language; William's medical knowledge; the influence of Bede and other ancient writers on William's historiography; William and chronology; William, Anselm of Canterbury and reform of the English Church; William and the Latin Classics; William and the Jews; and William as hagiographer.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOverall, the volume offers a broad coverage of William's learning, wide-ranging interests and significance as revealed in his writings.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nRodney M.
