	Geraint of Dumnonia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is clear from this letter that in the later seventh century the British in Cornwall and Devon still observed Easter on the dates that the Celtic church had calculated, at variance with Catholic practice.
		According to Florence of Worcester, Geraint was killed after a series of battles that culminated in a victory of the West Saxons and South Saxons under Ine of Wessex in 710 CE.
		After Geraint's death, however, Ine was unable to establish his authority over neighbouring Cornwall; in 722, according to the Annales Cambriae, the West Saxons were defeated by the Cornish at the three battles of Hehil, Gartmailauc, and Pencon.

	Geraint and Enid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Geraint and Enid, also known by the title Geraint, son of Erbin, is a one of the Three Welsh Romances typically associated with the Mabinogion.
		Some scholars hold that the Erec from Chrétien's poem is based on Geraint, but others think the Welsh author simply replaced an unfamiliar French name with one his audience would recognize and associate with heroism.
		Geraint and Enid was reworked by Tennyson for two of his Idylls of the King.

	Telegraph \| News \| Lord Geraint
		Lord Geraint, who died on Saturday aged 79, was a leading Liberal Democrat; during his political career he fought for a Welsh Parliament, championed the Welsh language and campaigned on behalf of the hill farming community which was close to his heart.
		Geraint Wyn Howells was born on April 15 1925 at Ponterwyd, in Cardiganshire, where his family had been Welsh-speaking farmers for seven generations; his father was also secretary of the local Eisteddfod.
		Geraint was educated at Ardwyn Grammar School, Aberystwyth, and as a young man became a champion sheep-shearer.

	Geraint the Son of Erbin
		Geraint stood there to see whether the knight would remain in the Castle; and when he was certain that he would do so, he looked around him; and at a little distance from the town he saw an old palace in ruins, wherein was a hall that was falling to decay.
		Geraint dismounted from his horse, and took the arms of the men he had slain, and placed them upon their saddles, and tied together the reins of their horses, and he mounted his horse again.
		But Geraint turned upon him, and struck him with his lance upon the centre of his shield, so that by that single thrust the shield was split, and all his armour broken, and he himself was brought over his horse's crupper to the ground, and was in peril of his life.

	The Heroic Age: Saxon Bishop and Celtic King
		Further, for Geraint, as a Dumnonian king, to give land to a Saxon abbey implies a level of civility between him and the West Saxon church, and this act could be taken as corroborative of the contention that he did ultimately approve of Roman Christian practice.
		Finberg (1964a: 88) suggests that Geraint's grant was part of a policy to "conciliate the principal churches of Wessex".
		The fact that Geraint was at war with Ine and Nunna in 710, the year after Aldhelm's death, could imply that Aldhelm did have some role here, and was at the very least able to keep Dumnonia and Wessex away from outright warfare (Anglo-Saxon Chronicle 709, 710; Swanton 2000: 40-43).

		Geraint went forward to the top of the meadow, having upon himself and upon his horse armour which was heavy, and rusty, and worthless, and of uncouth shape.
		Geraint granted him mercy, but through the hardness of the ground where they had fallen, and the violence of the stroke which they had received, there was not a single knight amongst them that escaped without receiving a fall, mortally severe, and grievously painful, and desperately wounding, from the hand of Geraint.
		Geraint went towards his own dominions; and thenceforth he reigned prosperously, and his warlike fame and splendour lasted with renown and honour both to him and to Enid from that time forth.And thus ends this portion of the Mabinogion.

		Lord Geraint, the former Liberal MP Geraint Howells, who has died aged 79, might not have looked out of place as a rancher in a western, his slow rolling gait making him, in Michael White's phrase, "the Robert Mitchum of the sheep fells".
		Geraint Howells was born into a poor, Welsh-speaking farming family in Ponterwyd, Ceredigion.
		After his immediate appointment to the upper house, of which he was deputy speaker from 1994 to 1999, the now Lord Geraint continued to represent farmers, and in one of his last speeches, in April 2002, called for realistic livestock prices and the stamping out of illegal meat imports.

	Geraint the Son of Erbin
		Then Geraint put his hand on the hilt of his sword, but he took counsel with himself, and considered that it would be no vengeance for him to sly the dwarf, and to be attacked unarmed by the armed knight, so he returned to where Gwenhwyvar was.
		On one side of Geraint sat the young Earl, and Earl Ynywl beyond him; and on the other side of Geraint were the maiden and her mother.
		And the next day, at dawn, Erbin desired Geraint to send messengers to the men to ask them whether is was displeasing to them that he should come to receive their homage, and whether they had any object to him.
