The death of Charles the Bald - Charles the Bald died at 54 in 877. Charles' interest in the representation of royalty extended to the careful planning of his own burial and commemoration at St. Denis. In the event, Charles died in a remote spot in the French Alps. Contemporary chroniclers described the premature putrescence and unbearable stench of Charles' corpse. After a botched embalming, his followers, intent on carrying the body to St. Denis, had to bury it instead at Nantua. The Annals of St. Bertin 's wording echoed II Maccabees ix, where the rotting body of the still-living Antiochus Epiphanes signalled the tyrant's fate. Thus Hincmar, author of the Annals and longtime royal counsellor, intimated his own criticism of Charles. Yet Hincmar also described Charles' death-bed transmission of the royal insignia to his heir. Charles' own body rotted : the body of the realm lived on
