Win the Crown
View through CrossRef
Can we find in the Old English translation of Boethius’s Consolation of
Philosophy an authentic relic of the contours of Alfred’s thoughts about
predestination and free will? This chapter offers a close reading of a paragraph comparing life to a race for a golden crown. The first one to reach
it wins it. This bears a startling similarity to the game young Alfred played
to win his mother’s book. If Alfred is the author of all three fables — this
philosophical fable, the fable of the youngest son who wins the book fair
and square, and the fable of Alfred’s papal anointing, then we can get
much closer to understanding what made Alfred tick than we thought.
If not, what then?
