![]() Alfred, King of England Alfred, b. 849, d. Oct. 26, 899, succeeded his brother AEthelred as king of WESSEX in April 871. Both he and his brother were sons of King AEthelwulf. The only English king called "the Great," Alfred is renowned both for his ability as a war leader and for his love of learning. He can be counted, with CHARLEMAGNE , as one of the two most outstanding rulers of the 9th century. Alfred was the first English monarch to plan systematically for the defense of his realm against the Danes, with whom he was almost constantly at war from 876 until the end of his life. He was also the first monarch of an English kingdom to become a symbol and focus of national unity. Although effective ruler only of Wessex and English Merica he was regarded as the protector of all the English living under Danish rule. His capture of London in 886, which marked the farthest extent of his essentially defensive territorial expansion, led to general English recognition of his leadership. After his death, however, Wessex and Mercia were still unable to expel the Danes from England. A learned layman, Alfred tried to ensure that his countrymen had the opportunity to become literate. To that end, he relied upon the bishops of the Anglo-Saxon church both to teach and to seek out students. Alfred himself translated into Anglo-Saxon the Pastoral Care of Pope Gregory I, Orosius' Seven Books of History against the Pagans, Boethius' Consolation of Philosophy, (possibly) the Ecclesiastical History of the Venerable Bede, and part of St. Augustine of Hippo's Soliloquies. To each of these except the fourth he added his own commentary. Alfred's military victories saved English culture and national identity from destruction, and his intellectual activities began the education of his people in the Latin heritage. was born circa 849 at Wantage, Berkshire.1 He was the son of Aethelwulf King of England and Osburh. He married Ealhswith or Alswitha in 868.2 died on 26 October 899.1 |
