Focusing on the political thought during King Alfred the Great's reign, this book delves into the significant translations from Latin to Old English that highlight Alfred's intellectual contributions. It contextualizes these works within a broader discourse of power and authority, emphasizing the influence of Frankish and European experiences. The first part evaluates the West Saxon structures of Alfred's rule, while the second part analyzes royal texts, revealing insights into kingship, communication, and court culture, positioning Alfred's reign within wider European aristocratic trends.
