This reading of canonical texts of medieval English literature - <I\u003eSir Gawain and the Green Night and Chaucer's <I\u003eMan of Law's Tale - alongside Geoffrey of Monmouth's <I\u003eHistoria regum Britanniae and other Anglo-Norman and English chronicles offers a broader context for reading the romance narratives and re-evaluates romance conventions in light of the genealogical priorities of these chronicles. By arguing that maternity is featured as a position of power, <I\u003eGender and History in Medieval English Romance and Chronicle adds to our understanding of women and sovereignty, and the ways gender and authority were rhetorically linked to medieval texts.
