How do you pronounce Ælfgifu?! • Historical novelist Patricia Bracewell is known for her 'Emma of Normandy trilogy', exploring the life of Queen Emma of England, wife of both Ethelred 'the Unready' and Cnut – and also known as Ælfgifu... • The Medieval Monk discusses with Patricia the motivation behind her work and the difficulty of creating a story from patchy historical records. • Then together they explore the challenge of making eleventh-century names accessible to a twenty-first-century audience. Ethelred or Æþelræd? Ælfgifu or Elgiva of Northampton? And how on earth would you say Sigeferth or Ealdgyth? • The video includes a sample reading from the newly released The Steel Beneath the Silk, the final part of the trilogy, by voice actor Rachel Atkins. • Patricia Bracewell's website provides links to purchasing The Steel Beneath the Silk: http://www.patriciabracewell.com/ • The Medieval Monk personally blesses all those subscribing to his channel. • The Medieval Monk's website: https://www.themedievalmonk.com/ • Music by Schola Antiqua, Universi qui te expectant; author of file, Mikebrubaker12; licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Licence; links: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Gr... and https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...
