Volker Riepenhausen

Bel exemplaire illustré de cette œuvre monumentale qui conjugue érudition historique et ambition littéraire pour retracer la vie et l’œuvre de l’empereur carolingien -

L’ouvrage s’inscrit dans la tradition historiographique du XIXe siècle, marquée par le romantisme national et la volonté de magnifier les grandes figures fondatrices de l’Europe chrétienne -

Vétault et Gautier, tous deux historiens et médiévistes reconnus, y déploient une fresque détaillée : enfance et formation de Charles, campagnes militaires, réformes administratives et religieuses, rôle dans la renaissance carolingienne, et construction de l’Empire sacré couronné en 800 -

Le texte mêle rigueur documentaire, citations de chroniques médiévales et envolées lyriques, cherchant à incarner Charlemagne comme modèle de souveraineté, de piété et de civilisation -

Alphonse Vétault / Léon Gautier - Charlemagne - 1888 - Alfred Mame et Fils -
573 pages -
