    Abstracts (in alphabetical order) 1) Marco Conti, Rome (The American University of Rome) Poetical Technique and Use of Sources in Early Carolingian Court Poetry: the Poems of Paul the Deacon This paper will consist of two parts: 1) A brief examination of the historical-literary motives which caused the rebirth of a Latin Court Poetry in the Carolingian empire in the late eighth century, a rebirth that marked the return to a poetical form, which had been abandoned in Western Europe since the time of Venantius Fortunatus in the Merovingian Court. The rebirth of a Court Poetry required the use of Latin poems as an official medium for the praise of the emperor as well as a means of communication among the members of the court itself. As a consequence, it involved the employment of a specific poetical technique and classical sources to produce poems that were timely and ready to be recited or written in the form of a letter. 2) An examination of some significant sections of the poems of Paul the Deacon, who (together with Peter of Pisa) inaugurated the return of Court Poetry in the Carolingian empire. In the second part of the paper, I will analyse what specific poetical techniques they used and what classical sources to produce poems in a short time and according to necessity and circumstances. Paul the Deacon appears to be key figures in this particular aspect of Carolingian literature as (together with Peter of Pisa) he set the model and template for Carolingian Court Poetry, which will influence all later poets from Alcuin to Walafrid.

It was the only battle of a three-year civil war that left too many dead and the survivors, shattered. During this period of unrest, from 840-843, an aristocratic woman, Dhuoda, endured the most difficult years of her life. The loyalty of her absentee husband, Bernard of Septimania, was being questioned by one of the three kings fighting for an upper-hand in this bloody civil war. To ensure his loyalty, his and Dhuoda’s 14-year old son, William, was to be sent to King Charles the Bald as a hostage.

  • Liturgy As History: the Origins of the Exeter Martyrology

A NOTE ON VERSIONS The version presented here may differ from the published version. If citing, you are advised to consult the published version for pagination, volume/issue and date of publication 1 Liturgy as History: The Origins of the Exeter Martyrology Sarah Hamilton, University of Exeter Abstract Through an Anglo-Norman case study, this article highlights the value of normative liturgical material for scholars interested in the role which saints’ cults played in the history and identity of religious communities. The records of Anglo-Saxon cults are largely the work of Anglo-Norman monks. Historians exploring why this was the case have therefore concentrated upon hagiographical texts about individual Anglo-Saxon saints composed in and for monastic communities in the post-Conquest period. This article shifts the focus away from the monastic to those secular clerical communities which did not commission specific accounts, and away from individual cults, to uncover the potential of historical martyrologies for showing how such secular communities remembered and understood their own past through the cult of saints. Exeter Cathedral Library, Ms 3518, is a copy of the martyrology by the ninth-century Frankish monk, Usuard of Saint-Germain-des-Prés , written in and for Exeter cathedral’s canons in the mid-twelfth century.

  • Zur Kanonisationsbulle Für Erzbischof Heribert Von Köln 49
    ZUR KANONISATIONSBULLE FUR ERZBISCHOF HERIBERT VON K~LN Von Heribert Müller Theodoi Schieffev zunz 65, Gebuvtstag ~1~ ~h.Ilgen 1907 im Rahmen seiner Untersuchungen zur rheinisch- ~~~ll~nkundedes Mittelalters die von Johann Gelenius im ersten Band der ,,FarraginesUüberlieferte I<anonisationsbulle eines Gregorius epi- smpus semus servorum dei für den heiligen Heribert als Fälschung dieses ge- lehrten Sammlers nachzuweisen suchte, stand die Urkunde für einige Jahre im Blickpunkt der rheinischen Geschichtsforschung, bis H.

Seitdem wandte sich das wissenschaftliche Interesse von diesem Stück wieder ab; in den folgenden Jahrzehnten stellte man nur noch im Zusammenhang mit Arbeiten über Heri- bert, seine Klostergrüiidung in Deutz oder den Heribertusschrein bisweilen Überlegungen an, welcher Papst wohl mit dem als Aussteller genannten Gre- gorius gemeint sein könnte, und entschied sich oftmals - aber meist ohne nähere Begründung - für Gregor V11 2.

    AFTER THE FALL –EARLY MEDIEVAL WRITINGS FOR THE LATIN CLASS 60 minute workshop Introduction Map of Europe 500 A.D. The Dark Ages of Europe, in which Rome as an idea continued to wield power after Rome in the substance was largely gone, had a profound influence on world history. Important Latin writers such as Boethius, Isodore, the Venerable Bede, and Alcuin still thought of themselves as Romans or preservers of the Roman tradition. People couldn't believe that Rome was no longer the Owner and Protector of the World, and opportunists kept strengthening their power by putting on its empty mantle. Visigoth kings in France and Spain claimed to be subjects of the Roman Emperor, and carefully kept the Roman civil systems going as long as they could. When the Emperor became a total nonentity, Odoacer and after him Clovis, as barbarian a pair of kings as any who ever lived, hurried to claim the titles Patricius and Consul and pose as successors to the Roman Emperors. Even Charlemagne did this, and gained prestige from it to augment his power. In addition to seeking power, however, these people, as well as the scholars living in their realms, saw themselves as Guardians of the Roman Culture, which must not be allowed to perish from the world. Thanks to their efforts, it didn’t. Historically this period is unbelievably fractured. In order to establish some order, I will use maps of Europe and a chronological organization, as I did in my book The Lighter Side of the Dark Ages.

  • Charlemagne – Emperor and Reformer
    Krzysztof Ratajczak DOI: 10.14746/bhw.2018.38.39 Department of Educational Studies Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań Charlemagne – Emperor and Reformer. On the 1200th Death Anniversary Abstract The purpose of this paper is to present the role of Charlemagne (768−814), King of the Franks and Emperor of the Romans (from 800) in the process of recovering the school organisation that was considerably weakened in the period from the 5th to the 7th century as well as the participation of the ruler in the reforms of education, science and the school system, referred to as the Carolingian Renaissance. In his reforms of the legal system, the monetary system, administration and education, Charles consistently implemented the political program announced in the Act of 789. The emperor’s actions reveal a clearly utilitarian goal. The command of Latin and the introduction of readable writing enabled the clergy to better understand the words of the Holy Scripture and, in turn, increased the general level of religious education among believers. The numerous scriptoria across the empire contributed to the ongoing work on defining the uniform text of all the books. The rebirth of Latin was driven by the works of the late Roman grammarians, Donatus and Priscian, and many works by ancient authors were also copied in scriptoria. Keywords: Charlemagne, carolingian renaissance, history of education 2014 marked the 1200th anniversary of the death of Charlemagne (768−814), King of the Franks and Emperor of the Romans (from 800) and it was a good occasion to look back at his achievements in education and legislation related to educational matters.

  • Clerics and Troubadours
    CHAPTER 5 The Culture (Ninth–Twelfth Centuries): Clerics and Troubadours Isabel Grifoll 1 Carolingian “renovatio” Carolingian domain opened Catalonia to the Northern European cultural en- vironment. Charlemagne (742/747–814) promoted an ambitious cultural pro- gramme across his empire that is known historiographically as the Carolingian renovatio or Carolingian Renaissance. It was fuelled by the desire to unite the different peoples and ethnic groups that made up the empire by giving them a common culture. Culture was an instrument of policy, especially after Charlemagne’s coronation as Imperator romanorum in Rome (800). The Carolingian renovatio was built around two main axes, namely the Catholic faith as a principle of cohesion and the legitimation of the imperi- um through the revival of the classical roman legacy (imitatio imperii). After his coronation, Charlemagne felt he was the continuance of Augustus’ impe- rial lineage (Imperator Augustus) and he mirrored himself particularly on the model of the Roman Empire Christianised by Constantine I (272–337). Aware of the expansion of Christianity in the West, Charlemagne saw this as a good vehicle for the administrative and institutional reform of the empire. The em- peror’s good relations with the Church in Rome, the guardian of the ancient culture, favoured the assumption of the classical legacy. The culture of the Franks was inferior to that of other western peoples (Ireland, Saxon England, Longobard Italy or Visigoth Hispania). Their con- quests brought the Franks into contact with these areas, which furnished men and books for the Carolingian scriptoria and schools. The renovatio was, to a great extent, the work of foreign intellectuals.

INTRODUCTION It will become clear in what follows why the diocese ofLiege merits specific treatment in this collection. The ecclesiastical in­ stitutions along the Meuse and its larger vicinity were among the most prolific producers ofhagiography throughout the mid­ dle ages, and the period roughly encompassing the late tenth to the early twelfth century was no exception. The tenth and eleventh centuries saw the development of Liege into an episcopal principality - its political form that would endure until the French Revolution. Thanks in large part to grants and privileges from the German emperors, the bishops 1 of Liege became the most powerful magnates in the region . Episcopal influence is strongly felt in the hagiography of the 1 On this development, see KURTH, Notger (1905) and KUPPER, Liege (1981). 810 ]. R.
