This paper argues that the P oeta S axo's epic poem about Charlemagne was composed at the bishopric of P aderborn as part of a wider literary programme that included both the Translatio sancti Liborii and the Vita sancti Liborii . Near the close of the ninth century, when P aderborn's renown and resources were at their lowest ebb, these three works articulated an image of episcopal authority, touted the pre‐eminence of P aderborn, and made a bid for royal patronage
