Franks and Lombards in Italian
Carolingian Texts
Franks and Lombards in Italian Carolingian Texts
examines how historians of
Carolingian Italy portrayed the history of the Lombards, Charlemagne’s conquest
of the Lombard kingdom, and the presence of the Franks in the Italian Peninsula.
The different contexts and periods in which these writers composed their
works allow readers to focus on various aspects of this period and to highlight
the different ways the vanquished remembered Carolingian rule in Italy. The
‘memories’ of these authors are organized by topic, ranging from the origin of
the Lombards to the conflicts that broke out among the Carolingians after Louis
II died in 875. Besides presenting the English translation and the Latin text of the
excerpts from the Italian Carolingian historical works, the volume also contains
the English translation of the same events recorded in Frankish and papal narrative
texts. In this way it is possible to compare different memories about the same
episode or topic.
The book will appeal to scholars and students of the Lombards and Carolingians,
as well as all those interested in medieval Europe.
