Narrative

Name Suffix:<NSFX> Holy Roman Emperor, King Of The Franks
!NAME: Charlemagne
!TITLE: King of the Franks (768-814), Emperor of the West (800-814);"
!BIRTH: 2 Apr 742, at Ingelheim, Germany
!MARRIAGE: ". . .(third) ca. 771, Hildegarde of Swabia,"
!DEATH: ". . . 814/4 at Aix-la-Chapelle;" "The grandson of Charles Martel and the son of Pepin the Short, he was the second Carolingian king of the Franks (768-814) and the first Christiann
Emperor of the West (800-814). One of history's great figures, he was
destined to found a new Roman empire in the West. He regarded himself as
the divine agent whose mission it was to revive the civilization, religion,
and culture that had been lost in the Dark Ages. . . . Under the last of the
Merovingians the intellectual and cultural of Francia had almost been
extinquished. Charlemagne's first concern was to re-educate the clergy.
. . . he brought to France learned and renowned teachers from abroad,
Alcuin from England, Paulus Diaconus from Italy. With their help, he
founded cathedral and monastic schools, and established the seven liberal
arts as the general program of studies. The result, not fully apparent
until his death, was a veritable renaissance in letters and arts."
