Description
An account of the resource
<p>An article on page 10 of The Sydney Morning Herald on September 25, 1901. The article reports on a sermon by Archdeacon Gunther in St. John’s Church in which he mentioned that it was the thousandth anniversary of Alfred the Great, king of Wessex (primarily England south of the Thames), ‘the greatest and best of English kings’. Particular mention was made of the glories of his reign, and his morality and learning. Although the main primary source, the <em>Anglo-Saxon Chronicle</em>, records Alfred’s death in the annal for 901, the texts date had gone awry and it is now thought that he died in 899. Alfred is renowned for defeating Viking invaders and promoting learning at his court, including the translation of many Latin works into (Old) English.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>This anonymous article in The Sydney Morning Herald on 30 November 1886 is a review of a musical performance about Alfred the Great. The cantata ‘Alfred’ was composed by Ebenezer Prout with a libretto by Mr Grist. The piece is based around Alfred’s battle with the Viking great army and its leader Guthrum in 878 and opens with Alfred at Athelney, where he had been forced to take refuge with his wife Alswitha (Ealhswith) and men following a Viking attack on the royal estate at Chippenham. Alfred eventually enters the Viking camp disguised as a minstrel where he enters a singing competition with Guthrum, which he wins. During the competition Guthrum sings about the Norse god Thor and Alfred a song of love. Alfred and his men later defeat the Vikings at the battle of Ethandun and Guthrum and his followers become Christians. The performance was given to raise money for a new organ at St Paul’s, Redfern, and took place at the Y.M.C.A.</p>
<p>The article can be found at <a href="http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article28351939" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: small;">http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article28351939</span></a></p>
The cantata is based on contemporary accounts about Alfred found in the <em>Anglo-Saxon Chronicle </em>and Asser’s <em> Life of Alfred</em>, but the story of him disguising himself as a minstrel to spy on the Viking camp is not found in these sources. It became a very popular tale in the nineteenth century, being the subject of various illustrations and mentioned in works of history.

Description
An account of the resource
An article by Dylan Welch in The Sydney Morning Herald about the Knights Templar in Australia. The article briefly outlines the origins of the order in the early twelfth century as protectors of Christian pilgrims to Jerusalem, and its disbandment in the early fourteenth. The order has since been revived and now also operates in Australia, combining Christian charity work with instruction in swordplay and a French form of kickboxing. The article interviews two Australian members of the Templar’s, Paul O’Sullivan and Paul Grice. It is noted that the modern knights have little in common with those featured in Dan Brown’s novel ‘The Da Vinci Code’. Instead, they are described as a ‘modern-day esoteric knighthood’.
