Westminster, Matthew of

1910 New Catholic Dictionary

Supposed author of the English chronicle "Flores Historiarum." The misunderstanding regarding this imaginary personage originated with a copyist who, perceiving that part of the chronicle was written at Westminster, while another portion followed the history of Matthew Paris, concluded that Matthew was himself a monk of Westminster.
