Si a lo largo del reinado de Ludovico Pío se habían dado conflictos dentro de la dinastía Carolingia, a su muerte en el 740 la situación sólo podrá agravarse. Tres hermanos se dividen el Imperio, iniciando una época de alianzas y traiciones que se prolongará durante décadas. Enfrentados y aliados entre sí en los diferentes momentos, deberán hacer frente a las amenazas exteriores: vikingos, sarracenos, eslavos y húngaros hostigan todas las fronteras del antiguo Regnum Francorum. En el interior, las insurrecciones serán el pan de cada día, hijos alzándose contra sus padres, en no pocas ocasiones incitados por una aristocracia rebelde. La tan ansiada unidad será imposible, una idea que aún así fue resucitada en algunos momentos, cuando parecía que un rey carolingio podría reconstruir todo el Imperio bajo su dirección. A la fragmentación inicial en Verdún en el 843, habrá que añadir la división de los reinos de Lotario I y Luis el Germánico cuando ambos fallezcan repartiendo sus tierras entre sus hijos, incrementando con ello la tensión en el reino. Con el fin del siglo IX se iniciará la imparable y veloz decadencia de una dinastía que había logrado dar vida a un nuevo Imperio inspirado en el recuerdo de la caída Roma y de espíritu cristiano. Con la muerte de Carlos el Gordo, la estirpe dará sus últimos coletazos de vida, aunque aún logrará mantenerse por algún tiempo en el poder en algunos de los reinos.

La muerte de Carlomagno abre una nueva etapa en la historia del Regnum Francorum. Su sucesor será su único hijo vivo: Ludovico Pío, también llamado Luis el Piadoso. Acusado por la historiografía de iniciar la decadencia del Imperio fundado por su padre, su reinado será presentado como un simple intermedio entre la grandeza de Carlomagno y la época de conflictos civiles auspiciadas por sus herederos. Frente a este visión, el reinado de Ludovico pío aparece como una época de consolidación y de transformaciones sociales; etapa que será sucedida por unas turbulencias a lo largo de todo el siglo IX que llevaran al ocaso del Imperio Christianum al que Carlomagno y sus intelectuales dieron vida el 25 de diciembre del año 800. El reinado de Ludovico y sus sucesores quedará marcado, sin ninguna duda, por la intriga política. Se abre, así en el 814 todo un siglo lleno de conflictos civiles surgidos por las disputas en el propio seno de la dinastía carolingia e instigadas por una nobleza y un clero con intereses diversos y divergentes. Conspiraciones, alianzas, traiciones, asesinatos, rebeliones y guerras dejarán su impronta en el Regnum Francorum a lo largo de toda la centuria.

Life of Charlemagne by Einhard audiobook. Einhard was employed by Charlemagne as a court historian. At the request of Charlemagne's son and successor Louis the Pious, he wrote a biography of Charlemagne, the Vita Karoli Magni or Life of Charlemagne (c. 817–830), which provides much direct information about Charlemagne's life and character. In composing this he made full use of the Frankish Royal annals. Einhard's literary model was the classical work of the Roman historian Suetonius, the Lives of the Caesars.

We are delighted to be joined by historian Dr Rutger Kramer on today's special episode recapping and re-examining all the Carolingians we have ranked on the podcast, from Charles Martel to Louis V. In this episode, among plenty of other topics, we talk about what the Battle of Tours really meant to the Franks, why Charlemagne is such an anomaly in this period, and why Louis the Pious might have been robbed!Rutger's "Rethinking Authority in the Carolingian Empire: Ideas and Expectations During the Reign of Louis the Pious (813-828)" is available as an open-access read, for those who want to learn more.Other recommendations:Vita Caroli (Life of Charlemagne) by Einhard (full translation)Gesta Normannorum (History of the Dukes of Normandy) by Dudo of St-Quentin (full translation)The Penitential State: Authority and Atonement in the Age of Louis the Pious by Mayke de JongList of books by Thea Beckman (Dutch historical fiction author)The Royal Diaries series by Kathryn Lasky (fiction)The Dark Queens: A gripping tale of power, ambition and murderous rivalry in early medieval France by Shelley Puhak (non-fiction narrative history about Fredegund and Brunhild, available in the US and UK)

This week we're going to take a look at what may be one of the great military miscalculations of all time. Charles was a solid tactician and an excellent logistician, and clearly very successful in most things he tried his hand at. Politics, religion, culture, war... there was no area in which he did not make an enormous impact during his life. Knowing this, how was it then that he so dramatically failed to see just how long and hard a campaign against the Saxons would be? Einhard, one of the first and most eminent biographers of Charlemagne, and a man who studied the whole of the great King's life, would describe it this way: “No war taken up by the Frankish people was ever longer, harder, or more dreadful.” This is both factually correct and a huge understatement. After all, we are not talking about an extra battle or two; we are talking about nearly 30 additional years of battle, plus additional pockets of resistance that would not be fully squelched until well after Charles's lifetime. Was it hubris, bad intelligence, an overestimation of his own military capabilities, or an underestimation of his enemies that led to all of this? Or was it a bit of all of the above? Finally, even with all of these factors in mind, did Charles really have a choice of whether or not to face the Saxons? I mean, was their fight inevitable, and if so, could it have been less bloody for both sides? ⚜️ ⚜️ ⚜️ Links to social media and the website: Shelley Puhak: shelleypuhak.com The Dark Queens: https://www.amazon.com/Dark-Queens-Bloody-Rivalry-Medieval/dp/1635574919 TDQ Politics & Prose Launch Event: https://www.politics-prose.com/event/book/pp-live-shelley-puhak-dark-queens-bloody-rivalry-forged-medieval-world    Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ThugsAndMiracles Wise: https://wise.prf.hn/click/camref:1100lmi64/creativeref:1011l34332  Audible: https://www.audibletrial.com/thugs    Site: https://www.thugsandmiracles.com/ Email: thugsandmiracles@gmail.com Twitter: @thugsandmiracle (with no “s” on the end) Facebook: @ThugsAndMiracles Instagram: @ThugsAndMiracles YouTube: Thugs and Miracles Academia.edu: Life After Rome Listenable: History of the Merovingians, 451-613

Er war ein Mann mit vielen Talenten und er hatte Glück. Als der junge Klosterschüler Einhard in Fulda als außergewöhnlich klug und sprachbegabt auffiel, suchte Karl der Große gerade nach Männern, mit denen er die Bildung im Frankenreich reformieren könnte. Bald war Einhard Mitglied der illustren Gelehrtenrunde, die sich in Aachen um den Herrscher scharte. Autorin: Maren Gottschalk

Einhard und maha unterhalten sich über improvisierte Musik, kurz Impromusik. Früher sprach man auch von Tonkunst, wenn es um Musik ging. Deshalb findet sich das Wort im Untertitel. Es geht dabei um Harmonielehre und Einhard gibt konkrete Beispiele aus dem eigenen Repertoire. Sein technisches Equipment wird ebenfalls vorgestellt.

Einhard und maha erzählen ihre jeweilige Fahrradgeschichte, aber es geht auch allgemein um die Geschichte und die Zukunft des Fahrrads und besonders über das Fahren mit dem Rad. Das Thema wird eher allgemein und nicht technisch angegangen.

Prof. Rosamond McKitterick (Sidney Sussex College and the Faculty of HIstory) provides an overview of the life and achievements of Charlemagne, starting from Einhard's 'Life of Charlemagne'.

In this lecture, Professor Freedman discusses the Carolingian Renaissance, the revival of learning sponsored by Charlemagne and his successors. The period before the Carolingians saw a decline in learning, evidenced in part by the loss of lay literacy. As literacy became the purview of clerics, monasteries set up scriptoria in order to copy manuscripts on a larger scale. In this context, the Carolingians sponsored a revival of learning both for the sake of bringing educated people into the government and in order to encourage the piety of the people. Professor Freedman ends the lecture by discussing Einhard’s writings on Sts Marcellinus and Peter. Their story illustrates how, in this period, the piety of the well-educated was not all that different from that of the common people. Complete course materials are available at the Open Yale Courses website: http://oyc.yale.edu This course was recorded in Fall 2011.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the Holy Roman Emperor Charlemagne and the Carolingian Renaissance. In 800 AD on Christmas Day in Rome, Pope Leo III proclaimed Charlemagne Emperor. According to the Frankish historian Einhard, Charlemagne would never have set foot in St Peter's that day if he had known that the Pope intended to crown him. But Charlemagne accepted his coronation with magnanimity. Regarded as the first of the Holy Roman Emperors, Charlemagne became a touchstone for legitimacy until the institution was brought to an end by Napoleon in 1806. A Frankish King who held more territory in Western Europe than any man since the Roman Emperor, Charlemagne's lands extended from the Atlantic to Vienna and from Northern Germany to Rome. His reign marked a period of enormous cultural and literary achievement. But at its foundation lay conquest, conversion at the point of a sword and a form of Christianity that was obsessed with sin, discipline and correction. How did Charlemagne become the most powerful man in Western Europe and how did he finance his conquests? Why was he able to draw Europe's most impressive scholars to his court? How successful was he in his quest to reform his church and educate the clergy? And can the Carolingian period really be called a Renaissance? With Matthew Innes, Professor of History at Birkbeck, University of London; Julia Smith, Edwards Professor of Medieval History at Glasgow University; Mary Garrison, Lecturer in History at the University of York
