king of the See also:English (d. 955), was the youngest son of See also:Edward the See also:Elder and his wife Eadgifu. He succeeded his See also:brother See also:Edmund in the See also:year 946 and at this See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf.

See also:Pontefract, in See also:Yorkshire, where he received from See also:Wulfstan, See also:arch-See also:bishop of See also:York, and the Northumbrian " See also:witan " See also:confirmation of their submission. Shortly after they threw their pledges to the winds and took the See also:Norwegian See also:Eric Bloodaxe, son of Harold Fairhair (See also:Harald Harfagar), as their king. Edred recklessly ravaged all See also:Northumbria in revenge, burning See also:Ripon during his See also:march. On his return See also:home Edred's rearguard was attacked at See also:Castleford, and the infuriated king once more turned to ravage Northumbria, which was only saved by its See also:- ABANDONMENT (Fr. abandonnement, from abandonner, to abandon, relinquish; abandonner was originally equivalent to mettred banddn, to leave to the jurisdiction, i.e. of another, bandon being from Low Latin bandum, bannum, order, decree, " ban ")
abandonment of Eric and by See also:compensation made to Edred. See also:Archbishop Wulfstan seems to have been a centre of disaffection in the See also:north, and in 952 Edred caused him to be imprisoned in the See also:castle of " Judanburh," while in the same year the king, in revenge for the slaying of See also:- ABBOT (from the Hebrew ab, a father, through the Syriac abba, Lat. abbas, gen. abbatis, O.E. abbad, fr. late Lat. form abbad-em changed in 13th century under influence of the Lat. form to abbat, used alternatively till the end of the 17th century; Ger.

After the brief See also:rule of Anlaf Cuaran in Northumbria, Eric was once more restored, probably in 950, only to be expelled again in 953 or 954, when Edred took the Northumbrian See also:kingdom into his own hands. In the same year Wulfstan was liberated and appointed to the Mercian bishopric of See also:Dorchester. Edred died on the 23rd of See also:November 955 at See also:Frome, in See also:Somersetshire, and was buried in the old See also:minster at See also:Winchester. During the whole of his See also:life Edred was troubled by See also:ill-See also:health, a fact which may help to explain some of the more passionate acts of violence attributed to him. The king was throughout his life on terms of See also:personal intimacy with St See also:Dunstan, and his public policy was largely guided by that See also:prelate and by his own See also:mother Eadgifu.
