The poem "The Battle of Maldon"[edit] It is believed by many scholars that the poem, while based upon actual events and people, was created to be less of a historical account and more of a means of enshrining and lifting up the memories of the men who fought and lost their lives on the battlefield protecting their homeland, especially in the case of the English commander of the battle, Byrhtnoth. O. Morgan is a book-length poem retelling the story of the Battle of Maldon in modern English. ^ "The Battle of Maldon sometimes called Byrhtnoth's Death".
