Product Description

In the nineteenth century, Alfred the Great was a figure who rivalled King Arthur in the popular imagination. This book asks why Alfred was so important in Victorian Britain, examines the ways in which he was rewritten by authors and artists of the time, and investigates how Alfred is no longer a national icon. -- .
