It focuses on Alcuin of York and Hincmar of Rheims, authors and political advisers to Charlemagne and to Charles the Bald, respectively. It examines how they used Augustinian political thought and ethics, as manifested in the De Civitate Dei, to give more weight to their advice. A comparative approach sheds light on the differences between Charlemagne's reign and that of his grandson. It scrutinizes Alcuin and Hincmar's discussions of empire, rulership and the moral conduct of political agents during which both drew on the De Civitate Dei, although each came away with a different understanding. By means of a philological-historical approach, the book offers a deeper reading and treats the Latin texts as political discourses defined by content and language"--Provided by publisher.NonfictionOverDriveHistoryOverDrivePhilosophyOverDriveHoly Roman EmpirePolitics and governmentAlcuinAugustineCarolingianCharlemagneDe Civitate DeiEarly medieval EuropeEthicsHincmarPolitical thoughtRulershipNonfiction.History.Philosophy.320.94409021HIS000000HIS037010PHI012000bisacshMoesch Sophia1733004MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910341146903321Augustine and the art of ruling in the Carolingian imperial period4147968UNINA
