Alfred le Grand, le cauchemar des vikings

Petite question : les légendes médiévales, est-ce que c’est du roman national ? Je veux dire : au Moyen Âge, quand ils parlaient du roi Arthur, ils y croyaient vraiment, ou ils savaient que c’était juste un mythe autour duquel se réunir ? Faut dire que l’Angleterre du Haut Moyen Âge, ça secoue pas mal : d’un côté, du 7e au 8e siècle, c’est l’essor du christianisme et de l’instruction. De l’autre, du 8e au 9e siècle, c’est la terreur des raids scandinaves, du clergé renversé, des monarques divisés et des royaumes impuissants… Tout ça, c’est super pour les séries "Vikings" et "The Last Kingdom"… qui d’ailleurs, ne parlent pas du roi Arthur, mais d’un autre roi qui fait penser à lui, mais qui a l’avantage d’être bien réel : Alfred de Wessex, Alfred le Grand, une véritable légende de son vivant !
