The portrayal of William Rufus, the second Norman king of England, has evolved significantly over time. Initially, contemporary chroniclers depicted him negatively, emphasizing traits that were considered unworthy of a monarch. This unfavorable image persisted through the eleventh and twelfth centuries, influencing later historians who largely reiterated these views with only slight reinterpretations. The paper explores the political and cultural context surrounding Rufus's reign, highlighting the impact of historical narratives on his legacy.
