Alfred the Great - Appearance in Culture
In honour of Alfred, the University of Liverpool now has a King Alfred Chair of English Literature.
Thomas Augustine Arne's Masque of Alfred (known for "Rule Britannia") was a masque about Alfred the Great (first public performance: 1745).
G K Chesterton's poetical epic The Ballad of the White Horse describes Alfred uniting the fragmented Kingdoms of Britain to chase the northern invaders away from the island. Like Shakespeare's Henry V, it deals with the theme of a divinely oriented leader waging physical and spiritual battle against a morally unjust enemy.
The historical fiction author Bernard Cornwell started, in the early 21st century, a retelling saga The Saxon Stories about Alfred's life and his struggle against the Vikings. A biography of Alfred by Justin Pollard was published in 2005.
Alfred was played by David Hemmings in the 1969 film Alfred the Great, which co-starred Michael York as Guthrum [1].
