(3) | Keine | Probably composed in Latin in the 1160s and then translated into Welsh in the 13th century, the Historia Gruffud vab Kenan is the only biography in Welsh composed for a prince', rather than the more usual saint.

In his introduction D Simon Evans discusses the known facts about the life of Gruffudd (c.1055-1137), including his upbringing in Ireland and his battle for control of Gwynedd. Evans also considers why Gruffud's son Owain would have had the biography composed, arguing that Owain needed to authenticate his claim to Gwynedd when it was threatened by other Welsh princes, in league with Henry II of England, in the 1150s.… (mehr) |

While there is no evidence that Gruffudd ap Cynan himself possessed qualities which marked him off from other leaders, the circumstances of his life in so far as they can be known, are certainly significant and noteworthy. His life (from c. 1055 to 1137) covers an important period in both Welsh and English history. The Normans came to England and later to Wales, and their advent resulted in changes and developments which permanently affected life and culture in these lands.
