The book is a historical and literary analysis of the portrayal of King Alfred the Great in English poetry from the early Middle Ages to the Victorian era. Arnold examines how Alfred was depicted in various genres of poetry, including epic poetry, ballads, and romantic poetry. He also explores the historical context of each poem and how it reflects the attitudes and values of the time in which it was written. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution of Alfred's image in English literature and how it reflects the changing perceptions of the king over time. Overall, King Alfred in English Poetry is a valuable resource for scholars of English literature and history, as well as anyone interested in the cultural legacy of one of England's most celebrated monarchs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
