The Proverbs of Alfred is a collection of early Middle English sayings ascribed to King Alfred the Great (called "England's darling"), said to have been uttered at an assembly in Seaford, East Sussex. The collection of proverbs was probably put together in Sussex in the mid-12th century. The manuscript evidence suggests the text originated at either a Cluniac or Benedictine monastery, either Lewes Priory, 10 mi (16 km) to the north of Seaford, or Battle Abbey, 25 mi (40 km) to the north-east.

dbo:abstract
  • Les Proverbes d'Alfred sont un recueil de dictons en moyen anglais attribué au roi Alfred le Grand. En réalité, ils n'ont probablement aucun lien avec lui : ils ne subsistent que dans quatre manuscrits du XIIIe siècle et leur rédaction se situe vraisemblablement dans la deuxième moitié du siècle précédent. Ils sont rédigés en vers allitératifs, mais ne suivent pas les règles strictes de la versification anglo-saxonne. (fr)
