| Zusammenfassung: | During the tenth century England began to emerge as a distinct country with an identity that was both part of yet separate from 'Christendom'. The reigns of Athelstan, Edgar and Ethelred witnessed the emergence of many key institutions: the formation of towns on modern street plans; an efficient administration; and a serviceable system of tax. Mark Atherton here shows how the stories, legends, biographies and chronicles of Anglo-Saxon England reflected both this exciting time of innovation as well as the myriad lives, loves and hates of the people who wrote them. He demonstrates, too, that this was a nation coming of age, ahead of its time in its use not of the Book-Latin used elsewhere in Europe, but of a narrative Old English prose devised for law and practical governance of the nation-state, for prayer and preaching, and above all for exploring a rich and daring new literature. This prose was unique, but until now it has been neglected for the poetry. Bringing a volatile age to vivid and muscular life, Atherton argues that it was the vernacular of Alfred the Great, as much as Viking war, that truly forged the nation. |

He demonstrates, too, that this was a nation coming of age, ahead of its time in its use not of the Book-Latin used elsewhere in Europe, but of a narrative Old English prose devised for law and practical governance of the nation-state, for prayer and preaching, and above all for exploring a rich and daring new literature. This prose was unique, but until now it has been neglected for the poetry. Bringing a volatile age to vivid and muscular life, Atherton argues that it was the vernacular of Alfred the Great, as much as Viking war, that truly forged the nation.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="505" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Introduction: Helmet and crown -- Part I: Mapping a journey through the Anglo-Saxon world -- 'The Italian journey' -- 'On the road' -- Interlude I: The charter bounds of Alveston and Tiddington -- Part II: The reign of King Alfred -- Literacy and the use of English: Alfred's reforms -- The rule of government: 'The craft of all crafts' -- The importance of Bede -- Interlude II: The dedication to the king in the preface to the Old English Bede -- Part III: The expansion of Wessex -- The reign of Edward the Elder -- The lessons of history: 'Edwardian' literature -- Interlude III: 'When the sun most brightly shines', from the Old English Metres of Boethius -- Part IV: War, poetry, and book-collecting -- 'King Æthelstan the Pious, famed throughout the wide world' -- The 'Great War' and medieval memory -- 'Prophet in his own country': The early life of St Dunstan -- 'By skill must love be guided': The school of Glastonbury -- Interlude IV: A passage from 'St Dunstan's classbook' -- Part V: Building the nation -- The reign of King Edred: Dealing with the Northumbrians, the queen mother, and the archbishop -- Politics, monasteries and the rise of Bishop Æthelwold -- Lawsuits, law-books and sermons: Archbishop Dunstan and King Edgar -- Winchester, chief city of Edgar's England -- Interlude V: The poem The Coronation of Edgar.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Anglo-Saxons</subfield><subfield code="z">England.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">English prose literature</subfield><subfield code="y">Old English, ca. 450-1100</subfield><subfield code="x">History and criticism.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Great Britain</subfield><subfield code="x">History</subfield><subfield code="y">Anglo-Saxon period, 449-1066.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85056730</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Anglo-Saxons</subfield><subfield code="z">Angleterre.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Prose anglaise</subfield><subfield code="y">ca 450-1100 (Vieil anglais)</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire et critique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Grande-Bretagne</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire</subfield><subfield code="y">449-1066 (Période anglo-saxonne)</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">HISTORY</subfield><subfield code="z">Europe</subfield><subfield code="z">Great Britain.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Anglo-Saxons</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">English prose literature</subfield><subfield code="x">Old English</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">England</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJpYDdYvBpjXV6WpybK68C</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Great Britain</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJdmp7p3cx8hpmJ8HvmTpP</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="648" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">449-1100</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Criticism, interpretation, etc.</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">History</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">The making of England (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGJp48Jfk3d6vKhJHjfkcK</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Atherton, Mark.</subfield><subfield code="t">Making of England.</subfield><subfield code="d">London : I.B.

Ltd., 2017. ©2017 1 online resource (xii, 340 pages) : illustrations, map text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Library of medieval studies ; 2 Includes bibliographical references (pages 293-330) and index. During the tenth century England began to emerge as a distinct country with an identity that was both part of yet separate from 'Christendom'. The reigns of Athelstan, Edgar and Ethelred witnessed the emergence of many key institutions: the formation of towns on modern street plans; an efficient administration; and a serviceable system of tax. Mark Atherton here shows how the stories, legends, biographies and chronicles of Anglo-Saxon England reflected both this exciting time of innovation as well as the myriad lives, loves and hates of the people who wrote them. He demonstrates, too, that this was a nation coming of age, ahead of its time in its use not of the Book-Latin used elsewhere in Europe, but of a narrative Old English prose devised for law and practical governance of the nation-state, for prayer and preaching, and above all for exploring a rich and daring new literature. This prose was unique, but until now it has been neglected for the poetry. Bringing a volatile age to vivid and muscular life, Atherton argues that it was the vernacular of Alfred the Great, as much as Viking war, that truly forged the nation. Print version record.
