Greek A Thesis in the Field of History for the Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University March 2019 Abstract The Battle of Tours and its victorious leader Charles Martel are often presented as a single event that defined the course of historical events in Western Europe. The motives that drove Arab forces to invade Gaul in 732 have their roots in a century of expansion beginning in 634 in the Arabian Peninsula. The factors that drove the success of the conquest, including the incorporation of local forces would weaken over time. By the time the Battle of Tours was fought the forces driving Arab expansion were stretched to the point of breaking.

    The Fall of the Umayyads & the Rise of the Franks Introduction In 750, the Umayyad Caliph Marwan II dies after fleeing defeat in the Battle of the Zab by the rival Islamic family of the Abbasids. Fifty years Later Charlemagne is crowned Emperor of the Romans or, as he preferred it, most serene Augustus crowned by God, the great, peaceful emperor ruling the Roman empire. These events might not seem to have much in common, but at one time it seemed, at least to the people living in that time that it would be an Islamic empire that came to rule over Europe, just as it came to rule over Syria, North Africa, and Iberia. So, what happened? How was the destiny of the Umayyads thwarted? How was it Franks and not Arabs that come to define the Middle ages and Europe? Setting the Stage and Introducing the Players This paper will focus on a period of roughly three decades in which the fortunes of the Umayyads wane and the fortune of the Frankish Carolingians rise. Leading this tale is a figure well known for his victories over the Muslims, but leaves little in the way of sources about him. Charles Martel comes to us through his successes Charles Figure 1: Frankish Kingdoms upon Charles’ Ascension to Martel and his campaigns Mayor of the Palace more then anything he (most of the time), reigning over the largest empire wrote or was written of in human History to that point.

In this work, Jacques Le Goff, one of the truly great medieval historians of our times, magisterially plumbs the depths of the fundamental contradiction of Saint Louis: is it possible to be both a king and a saint? Saint Louis lies at the intersection of reasons of state and divine reason; he is an individual around whom Le Goff turns like a detective searching for an ever-elusive truth, that of a life and a leg- end inextricably intertwined. A fine, eminently readable translation.” —Robert J. Morrissey, University of Chicago Critical praise for the French edition: “What is the ‘truth’ about Saint Louis? Can we recover an image of the ‘real SAINT man’? . Are the excavated multiple and tangled images of the king the only reality? ‘Saint Louis,’ wonders Jacques Le Goff, ‘a-t-il existé?’ In the pages of this wise and ruminative study, the distinguished French medieval- ist, in his longest and most impressive book, tries to provide an answer to this last question. [Le Goff’s] question . is not so much a pleasant irony LOUIS or an allusion to the methodological power of deconstruction as a profound meditation on the difficulty of doing history .
