It might have taken more than two years since the first draft was written, but my first published article has been published in _Peritia_, an internationally recognised journal of medieval studies! I owe thanks of course to the Laidlaw Foundation who provided the oportunity to do the research as an undergraduate that lies behind it.

However, my greatest debt is to Dr Alex Woolf who's supervision first pointed me towards these sources that have been so fruitful for me in so many ways. He has also been a wonderful sheppherd through the often disspiriting world of academic publishing, and his advice has been always been deeply helpful. He is a model for a nurturer of young scholars. Diolch yn Galon!
