  • Memorable Crises. Carolingian Historiography and the Making of Pippin's Reign, 750-900 F.C.W. Goosmann
    Memorable Crises. Carolingian Historiography and the Making of Pippin’s Reign, 750-900 F.C.W. Goosmann Summary This study explores the way in which Frankish history-writers retroactively dealt with the more contentious elements of the Carolingian past. Changes in the political and moral framework of Frankish society necessitated a flexible interaction with the past, lest the past would lose its function as a moral anchor to present circumstances. Historiography was the principal means with which later generations of Franks were able to reshape their perception of the past. As such, Frankish writers of annals and chronicles presented Pippin the Short (c. 714-768), the first Carolingian to become king of the Franks, not as a usurper to the Frankish throne, but as a New David and a successor to Rome’s imperial legacy. Pippin’s predecessor, the Merovingian king Childeric III (742-751), on the other hand, came to be presented as a weak king, whose poor leadership had invited the Carolingians to take over the kingdom for the general well-being of the Franks. Most of our information for the period that witnessed the decline of Merovingian power and the rise of the Carolingian dynasty derives from Carolingian historiography, for the most part composed during the reigns of Charlemagne (d. 814) and Louis the Pious (d. 840). It dominates our source base so profoundly that, to this day, historians struggle to see beyond these uncompromising Carolingian renderings of the past. In many ways, the history of the rise of the Carolingian dynasty in the eighth century can be viewed as a literary construction of ninth-century design, and the extent to which this history has been manipulated is not at all easy to discern.

Three excluded groups in particular dominate the early Carolingian sources: pagans, rebels and Merovingians. The presentations of these groups involved a great deal of misrepresentation, and the research of recent decades has shed light on a ‘non-Carolingian’ narrative of the eighth century: the peripheral peoples need not be seen as rebels;4 the later Merovingians were not useless kings;5 and there have been serious attempts to investigate the realities of early medieval Germanic paganism, if such a term can be used.6 Yet even for Carolingian authors there was a great deal of ambiguity in the portrayal of those identified as ‘others’.

  • All in the Family: Creating a Carolingian Genealogy in the Eleventh Century*
    All in the family: creating a Carolingian genealogy in the eleventh century* Sarah Greer The genre of genealogical texts experienced a transformation across the tenth century. Genealogical writing had always been a part of the Judeo-Christian tradition, but the vast majority of extant genealogies from the continent before the year 1000 are preserved in narrative form, a literary account of the progression from one generation to another. There were plenty of biblical models for this kind of genealogy; the book of Genesis is explicitly structured as a genealogy tracing the generations that descended from Adam and Eve down to Joseph.1 Early medieval authors could directly imitate this biblical structure: the opening sections of Thegan’s Deeds of Louis the Pious, for example, traced the begetting of Charlemagne from St Arnulf; in England, Asser provided a similarly shaped presentation of the genealogia of King Alfred.2 In the late tenth/early eleventh century, however, secular genealogical texts witnessed an explosion of interest. Genealogies of kings began to make their way into narrative historiographical texts with much greater regularity, shaping the way that those histories themselves were structured.3 The number of textual genealogies that were written down increased exponentially and began to move outside of the royal family to include genealogies of noble families in the West Frankish kingdoms and Lotharingia.4 Perhaps most remarkable though, is that these narrative genealogies began – for the first time – to be supplemented by new diagrammatic forms. The first extant genealogical tables of royal and noble families that we possess date from exactly this period, the late tenth and eleventh centuries.5 The earliest forms of these diagrams were relatively plain.

  • Iron, Steel and Swords Script - Page 1 Charibert I These Kids Did Not Do All That Well - They Fought Each Other Over Women
    The Frankish Empire And Its Swords Born to Rule (or to Be Killed) The Frankish Empire (also known as Frankish Kingdom, Frankia, Frankland) was the territory inhabited and ruled by the Franks, a confederation of Germanic tribes, during Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages. It starts with the Merovingians, who we know from before. Here is a very brief history of the Fankish Empire (mostly based on Wikipedia). Clovis (ca. 466 – 511) was the first King of the Franks and the founder of the Merovingian dynasty that ruled the Franks for the next two centuries. His father was Childeric I, whose sword hilt we so admire. In the 150 or so years before his coronation in 496, a confederation of various tribes like Sicambri, Saliens, Bructeri, Ampsivarii, Chamavi and Chattuarii, fought the Romans, each other, or were allies of the Romans. Nevertheless they established some "Frankish" territory in what is now France. Around 428 the Salian King Chlodio, a member of the Germanic Franks from the Merovingian clan, ruled over an increasing number of Gallo- Roman subjects on both sides of the Rhine. Advanced His name is Germanic, composed of the elements "hlod" = "fame" and "wig" = combat. The French, of course, later wrote it "Clovis" and pronounced it like "Louis", the name born by 18 kings of France. The Frankish core territory then was Austrasia (the "eastern lands"); see the map below or on a larger scale here. Chlodio was a Christian and, like his forebears, under constant attack from the heathen Saxons in the North. After his death in 511 the Kingdom was partitioned into 4 parts, ruled by his four sons: Frankish empire evolution Numbers give date of "acquisition".

  • Taking History On-Line
    Academic Essays The rise of the Carolingians or the decline of the Merovingians? by Emily Wilson The transference of power from the Merovingians to the Carolingians in France is one of the most confusing periods of early medieval history. In coming to a conclusion about whether this transference was due more the decline of the Merovingians, or more to the rise of the Carolingians, there are many considerations, often conflicting, and the sources are far from comprehensive. Nevertheless, this is a period which repays consideration, as it was instrumental in the formation of medieval France. Ultimately, a conclusion to the question ‘should we speak of the rise of the Carolingians or the decline of the Merovingians?’ may not be possible. This essay will argue that the terms “rise” and “decline” suggest an inevitability which is not supported by the evidence. In so doing the focus will be almost exclusively on political history for the reason that this is the area that the documentary sources shed the most light. Unfortunately, while this is the area that leads to the most certain conclusions, this will mean that the paper will have to gloss over certain aspects of ecclesiastical and economic history—both areas which have a significant impact on this question, and have largely ignored the areas of military and diplomatic history, also important in any consideration of this period. By focusing on political history however, it will be shown that this was a period characterised by a vitality and change, where the eventual victors were far from certain. The historian examining the Merovingian and Carolingian dynasties faces a problem familiar to any historian of the early medieval period: the scarcity of sources.
