While Vortigern rarely appears in the later stories of King Arthur, when he does he is usually the figure as described by either Geoffrey of Monmouth or Wace.

The name Wace, used in Jersey until the 16th century, appears to have been his only name ; surnames were not universally used at that time.

In the midst of the Arthurian section of the text, Wace was the first to mention the legend of King Arthur's Round Table and the first to ascribe the name Excalibur to Arthur's sword, although on the whole he adds only minor details to Geoffrey's text.

It is generally believed nowadays that Wace only had one name.

The fullest account of Leucius is that given by Photius ( Codex 114 ), who describes a book, called The Circuits of the Apostles, which contained the Acts of Peter, John, Andrew, Thomas, and Paul, that was purported to have been written by " Leucius Charinus " which he judged full of folly, self-contradiction, falsehood, and impiety ( Wace ); Photius is the only source to give his second name, " Charinus ".

There is a possibility that Wace, contrary to his own claims, derived Arthur's round table not from any Breton source, but rather from medieval biographies of Charlemagne — notably Einhard's Vita Caroli and Notker the Stammerer's De Carolo Magno — in which the king is said to have possessed a round table decorated with a map of Rome.

" To his contemporaries his forty years of influential episcopate, his friendship with Origen and Dionysius, the appeal to him of Cyprian, and his censure of Stephanus might well make him seem the most conspicuous figure of his time " ( Wace ).

It cannot be regarded as a history in any modern sense, although Wace often distinguishes between what he knows and what he does not know, or has been unable to find out.

Historian Matthew Bennett, in an article entitled " Wace and warfare ," has pointed out that Wace clearly had a good understanding of contemporary warfare, and that the details of military operations he invents to flesh out his accounts of pseudo-historical conflicts can therefore be of value in understanding the generalities of warfare in Wace's own time.

Although the name Robert has been ascribed to Wace, this is a tradition resting on little evidence.

Wace ( c. 1110 – after 1174 ) was a Norman poet, who was born in Jersey and brought up in mainland Normandy ( he tells us in the Roman de Rou that he was taken as a child to Caen ), ending his career as Canon of Bayeux.

She added Spanish to her languages, and in 1877 undertook the writing of a large number of the lives of early Spanish ecclesiastics for the Dictionary of Christian Biography edited by Dr William Smith and Dr. Henry Wace.

Oral performance ( story-telling ) is a feature of Gallo, for example, while Norman and Walloon literature, especially from the early 19th century tend to focus on written texts and poetry ( see, for example, Wace and Jèrriais literature ).

Another significant early supporter was Dean Wace.

He is best known for his chronicle Historia Regum Britanniae ( History of the Kings of Britain ) of 1136, which spread Celtic motifs to a wider audience, including accounts of Arthur's father Uther Pendragon, wizard Merlin, and sword Caliburnus ( named as Excalibur in some manuscripts of Wace ).

" In 1963 Talmy met Robert Wace, the manager of a group called The Ravens who later changed their name to The Kinks.

Brocéliande is the name of a legendary forest that first appears in literature in 1160, in the Roman de Rou, a verse chronicle written by Wace.

Wace numbers the Bretons from Brocéliande, about whom there are many legends, along with the Breton knights: " ceux de Brecheliant ( sic ) dont les Bretons disent maintes légendes ..." Wace also gives the name of the fountain of Barenton: " La fontaine de Berenton / sort d ' une part lez le perron ..." Wace describes how hunters scoop water from the fountain and wet a stone in order to summon rain.
