Dear mr. Cornwell, Ruth Lawler Kasilof, Alaska is asking about the title “the Great” also referring to Canute. He is called the Great by us Danes, and also by Wikipedia (encyclopedia). He was king of all of England including Wessex, Denmark, Norway, Schlesvig and Pommern. He is unfortunately burried in Winchester Cathedral, and not in Roskilde with the rest of the Danish Kings. Best regards, Bjarne Stigsby, Denmark
