Charles was a great-great-grandson in the direct male line of the emperor Charlemagne andclung tightly to his Carolingian heritage throughout his life.1 Indeed, 28 January was chosen for the coronation precisely because it was the anniversary of his great ancestor’s death in 814. However, the coronation, for all its pointed symbolism, was not a simple continuation of his family’s long-standing hegemony – it was an act of rebellion. Five years earlier, in 888, a dearth of viable successors to the emperor Charles the Fat had shattered the monopoly on royal authority which the Carolingian dynasty had claimed since 751. The succession crisis resolved itself via the appearance in all of the Frankish kingdoms of kings from outside the family’s male line (and in some cases from outside the family altogether) including, in West Francia, the erstwhile count of Paris Odo – and while Charles’s family would again hold royal status for a substantial part of the tenth century, in the long run it was Odo’s, the Capetians, which prevailed. Charles the Simple, then, was a man displaced in time: a Carolingian marooned in a post-Carolingian political world where belonging to the dynasty of Charlemagne had lost its hegemonic significance , however loudly it was proclaimed.2 His dilemma represents a peculiar syndrome of the tenth century and stands as a symbol for the theme of this article, which asks how members of the tenth-century ruling class perceived their relationship to the Carolingian past.

    1 the EDICT of PÎTRES, CAROLINGIAN DEFENCE AGAINST the VIKINGS, and the ORIGINS of the MEDIEVAL CASTLE by Simon Maclean READ 8

    1 THE EDICT OF PÎTRES, CAROLINGIAN DEFENCE AGAINST THE VIKINGS, AND THE ORIGINS OF THE MEDIEVAL CASTLE By Simon MacLean READ 8 FEBRUARY 2019 ABSTRACT: The castle is one of the most characteristic features of the Western European landscape in the Middle Ages, dominating social and political order from the eleventh century onwards. The origins of the castle are generally assigned to the ninth and tenth centuries, and the standard story begins with the defensive fortifications established against the Vikings during the reign of the West Frankish king Charles the Bald (843–77). In this article I argue that there are serious problems with this origin story, by re-evaluating some of the key sources on which it rests – particularly the Edict of Pîtres (864). I seek to demonstrate that my analysis of this source has important implications for how we think about the relationship between fortifications and the state in the Carolingian Empire; and by extension the evolution of the castle in north-western Europe between the ninth and twelfth centuries. 1. Introduction The Edict of Pîtres of 25 July 864 is one of the most celebrated of the 350 or so capitularies promulgated by the kings and emperors of the Carolingian dynasty. The Carolingians ruled the Frankish kingdoms which dominated Western Europe during the eighth and ninth centuries, and the capitularies were their characteristic form of legislation – a heterogeneous genre, but broadly speaking recognisable as records of royal proclamations divided into chapters, often expressed in a legislative or exhortatory voice.1 The Edict was issued by one of the most enthusiastic Carolingian legislators: Charles the Bald, who ruled the West Frankish kingdom (approximately equivalent to modern France) between 843 and 877.

Copyright 1989 by Martha & Bill Reamy Printed in the U.S.A. Published 1989 by FAMILY LINE PUBLICATIONS INTRODUCTION Every effort has been made to achieve accuracy in this project, but interpreting the enumerator's hand-written material has posed problems. As an aid to deciphering many poorly written and misspelled names, the "Wood's Baltimore City Directory, 1861" was consulted. When an entry was found in the Directory where the first name and occupation agreed with the Census listing and the surname appears to be similar, the City Directory spelling was added in brackets in the text and added to the index. The original enumeration at the National Archives was consulted for all proofreading. The enumerator took great liberties in the spelling of surnames. Sometimes when an entry for a household carried over from one page to another the enumerator changed the spelling of the surname. We have retained both spellings in this book. Surnames were occasionally spelled phonetically, e.g. the name written as Knobloch in the Baltimore City Directory appears as Noblock in the census. The user is cautioned to check the index for all possible variations. In some sections it is obvious that the information was transcribed from the original record column by column rather than across the page, line by line, with frequent misalignment of the data on a particular line.

Over 1,000 international firms own businesses in UK financial services, which demonstrates the openness of the sector. This number is growing, given the UK’s importance in the global financial services market which reflects its experience, concentration of expertise, favourable time zone and language. The UK openness to investment is matched and facilitated by transparency of information. Every company has to file financial returns annually and the majority of firms that are active in UK financial services are regulated by the Financial Services Authority.
