Uncover the Extraordinary Legacy of the Father of Europe
In the annals of history, few figures loom as large as Charlemagne, the legendary king who shaped the destiny of Europe. From his humble beginnings as a young prince to his coronation as Emperor of the Romans, Charlemagne's life was a tapestry woven with epic battles, political intrigue, and cultural brilliance.
Now, in King and Emperor: A New Life of Charlemagne, renowned historian Peter Sarris brings this extraordinary figure to life with unparalleled depth and detail. Drawing on a wealth of primary sources and the latest scholarship, Sarris paints a vivid portrait of Charlemagne's character, motivations, and the profound impact he had on the world.
Through engaging prose and captivating storytelling, King and Emperor takes you on an unforgettable journey into the heart of the Middle Ages. You'll witness Charlemagne's rise to power as he unites the Frankish kingdom and embarks on a series of military campaigns that will forever alter the map of Europe.
But Charlemagne was more than just a warrior-king. He was also a brilliant statesman and a patron of the arts. Under his rule, the Carolingian Renaissance flourished, giving birth to a new era of learning and cultural achievement. Charlemagne's architectural wonders, such as the Palatine Chapel in Aachen, remain testaments to his grand vision and enduring legacy.
King and Emperor is not just a biography; it is a sweeping historical narrative that explores the complex political, religious, and cultural forces that shaped Charlemagne's reign. Sarris provides fascinating insights into the workings of the Frankish court, the role of the Church in Charlemagne's empire, and the everyday lives of his subjects.
With its rich characterizations, vivid descriptions, and captivating storytelling, King and Emperor: A New Life of Charlemagne is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Europe, the Middle Ages, or the life of one of its most extraordinary rulers.
