Widsith, Ealhhild, and a Potential Appeal to Kentish Royalty
Original language description
Abstract: Widsith’s close connection with Ealhhild, wife of Eormanric, highlights the role of queens as gift-givers. Widsith’s praise of Ealhhild describes her in terms that situate her within the literary tradition of queens, but a comparison to the works of Venantius Fortunatus also illustrates the importance of female patronage to poets in real life. A study of Ealhhild’s name potentially links her character to the royal house of Kent, thus indicating an ideal type of audience for the poem.
