Who Started The Carolingian Renaissance

The Carolingian Economy

This book is about the economy of the Carolingian empire (753 877), which extended from the Pyrenees and the northern shores of the Mediterranean to the North Sea, and from the Atlantic coast to the Elbe and Saale rivers. It is the first comprehensive evaluation of the topic to appear in English in over twenty years. Aspects of land and people, agrarian production and technique, craft and industry, and regional and international commerce are analysed, and the Carolingian economy is reassessed in a European context.

Poetry of the Carolingian Renaissance

Early Carolingian Warfare

Charlemagne could not have revived the Roman empire in the West without the military machine built up over the course of the eighth century. Early Carolingian Warfare is the first book to study how the Frankish dynasty established its power and cultivated its military expertise in order to reestablish the regnum Francorum.
