Two Lives of Charlemagne (Paperback)
Published by Penguin Books, London, 1969
ISBN 10: 0140442138 ISBN 13: 9780140442137
Language: English
First Edition
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Charlemagne's name shines out over the historical landscape, illuminating the dark ages and anticipating the Renaissance. These two "lives" provide a fascinating contrast. Einhard, who spent 23 years in Charlemagne's service, chose to approach his "Vita Caroli" as a public history and, in beautifully expressed language, recounts Charlemagne's personal life and his achievements in warfare, learning, art, building, and in the skillful administration of the state. Notker the monk's "De Carolo Magno" is a collection of anecdotes rather than a presentation of historical facts, and his main delight seems to stem from the ingenious ways in which Charlemagne subdued proud or corrupt bishops and other men of power. In these stories, which merge into fiction, Charlemagne is already halfway to becoming the legendary figure of the epics in the later middle ages. A collection of anecdotes. It describes Charlemagne's personal life and details his achievements in reviving learning and the arts. It recounts his military successes and depicts one of the defining moments in European history: Charlemagne's coronation as emperor in Rome on Christmas day 800.
