  • Cullen J. Chandler. Carolingian Catalonia

    Open AccessRoger CollinsARTICLEThe American Historical Review2020

    While British historians of medieval Spain have tended to work primarily on the kingdom of Castile, their American counterparts favor Catalonia and the kingdom of Aragón more generally.

    Open AccessRoger CollinsARTICLEThe American Historical Review2018

    The impossibility of writing a biography of Charlemagne is generally acknowledged, even by those attempting so to do. What has to be undertaken instead is something of a “life and times” approach, blending limited biographical evidence into wider contexts, with a good dose of speculation as to the roles played by the individual. For Charlemagne, the Frankish king and emperor who ruled from 768 to 814, none of his personal writings have survived, …

    The abdication of Diocletian and Maximian in 305, whether envisaged as a fundamental feature of the tetrarchic system or the product of the senior emperor's recent ill health, opened the way to the emergence of a second tetrarchy, in which the dominant figure should have been Galerius.1 His succession to Diocletian as the Augustus in the East was matched by the parallel elevation of Constantius in the West. The two Caesars appointed to assist the…

The studies, by leading scholars in the field, set out to provide the factual basis from which assessments of the significance of literacy in the early mediaeval world can be made, as well as analysing the …
