Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles the Great, or Charlemagne, was one of the world's greatest military leaders. He became the leader of the Franks (who lived in modern-day France) in 768. Under his command, Frankish armies conquered most of Western Europe in the following decades. In 800, he was crowned emperor by Pope Leo XII. His greatness rested on more than military prowess. He was always interested in education, both for himself and for his subjects. He assembled many of the most noted scholars in Europe at his capital in Aachen, Germany, and began the Carolingian Renaissance. This was a period of heightened learning, innovations in architecture, and the preservation of many priceless books from earlier centuries.

So anxious was Charles that the revival of learning should not fail for want of teachers, that we hear that on his return from Rome, of which we shall speak in another chapter, he brought back with him several teachers, well known as men of genius. These he distributed among the principal Frank monasteries, and shortly afterwards, A.d. 787, sent round a famous letter or capitulary, addressed to the Abbot of Fulda, from which we will quote a few extracts. the ark and the tabernacle. Either in the lifetime of their royal patron, or after his death, all these scholars became great dignitaries of the Church, or ended their lives in monasteries of note.--" Guizot's History of France," Black's translation, He heads it thus: --" Charles, by the grace of God, King of the Franks and of the Lombards, and Patrician of the Romans, to Bangolfus, Abbot, and to his whole congregation, and to the faithful committed to his charge." After exhorting the Abbot to see that those under his charge not only led a regular life and one conformable to holy religion, but also gave time to the "study of letters," he goes on to say: "During past years we have often received letters from different monasteries, informing us that at their sacred services the brethren offered up prayers on our behalf; and we have observed that the thoughts contained in these letters, though in themselves most just, were expressed in uncouth language, and while pious devotion dictated the sentiments, the unlettered tongue was unable to express them aright! Hence there has arisen in our minds the fear lest, if the skill to write correctly were thus lacking, so too would the power of rightly comprehending the Holy Scriptures be far less than was...

Download or read book Charlemagne written by Derek Wilson and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An incisive and absorbing biography of the legendary emperor who bridged ancient and modern Europe and singlehandedly altered the course of Western history. Charlemagne was an extraordinary figure: an ingenious military strategist, a wise but ruthless leader, a cunning politician, and a devout believer who ensured the survival of Christianity in the West. He also believed himself above the rules of the church, siring bastards across Europe and coldly ordering the execution of 4,500 prisoners. Derek Wilson shows how this complicated, fascinating man married the military might of his army to the spiritual force of the Church in Rome, thereby forging Western Christendom. This is a remarkable portrait of Charlemagne and of the intricate political, religious, and cultural world he dominated.
