27 de abr. de 2020 · Æthelwold: Alfred the Great's rebel nephew. At the turn of the 10th century, King Alfred's carefully crafted royal dynasty was almost wrecked by an ambitious prince, Æthelwold. Ryan Lavelle describes a bloody civil war that split Anglo-Saxon England's most powerful family. Published: April 27, 2020 at 12:30 PM.
Æthelwold ( / ˈæθəlwoʊld /) or Æthelwald (died 13 December 902) was the younger of two known sons of Æthelred I, King of Wessex from 865 to 871. Æthelwold and his brother Æthelhelm were still infants when their father the king died while fighting a Danish Viking invasion.
Æthelwold was King Æthelred 's son and Alfred 's nephew. His own father considered him an unsuitable heir because of his debauchery and youthful lack of concern for the kingdom's business.
When Eadred died, he was succeeded by his nephew, Eadwig, who drove Eadred's chief advisor, Dunstan, into exile. However, Æthelwold attended Eadwig's court in at least some of the years of his reign, 955–59.
Æthelwold was the last of the nephews of Rædwald to rule East Anglia. He died in 664 and was succeeded by Ealdwulf, the son of his brother Æthelric. Few records relating to East Anglia have survived and almost nothing is known of Æthelwold's life or reign.
