Before we get back to our story, I’ve been seeing your conversations online and it made me realize I need to clarify something.   Some of you took the discussion of AEthelred’s unflattering nickname, and how he caught hell for some things that were out of his control or part of the common culture, and took that to mean that the BHP argues that AEthelred was a good king. He wasn’t.  He was an awful king in many respects.   What I’m trying to convey, and what I’m hoping you’ll get out of this series, is that the story of AEthelred (and how bad his reign was) was a great deal more complicated and nuanced than the stories regarding his reign imply.
