The history of the church under Alfred is most obscure. The Danish inroads had told heavily upon it; the monasteries had been special points of attack, and though Alfred founded two or three monasteries and imported foreign monks, there was no general revival of monasticism under him.
To the ruin of learning and education wrought by the Danes, and the practical extinction of the knowledge of Latin even among the clergy, the preface to Alfred's translation into Old English of Pope Gregory's Pastoral Care bears eloquent witness. ...

| | | | Alfred the Great - Christianity literature and music: Encyclopedia II - Alfred the Great - Public life During the short reigns of his two eldest brothers, Ethelbald and Ethelbert, nothing is heard of Alfred.

It is likely that this arrangement was sanctioned ...
