Men and morality.What did it mean to be a Frankish nobleman in an age of reform? How could Carolingian lay nobles maintain their masculinity and their social position, while adhering to new and stricter moral demands by reformers concerning behaviour in war, sexual conduct and the correct use of power? This book explores the complex interaction between Christian moral ideals and social realities, and between religious reformers and the lay political elite they addressed. It uses the numerous texts addressed to a lay audience (including lay mirrors, secular poetry, political polemic, historical writings and legislation) to examine how biblical and patristic moral ideas were reshaped to become compatible with the realities of noble life in the Carolingian empire. This innovative analysis of Carolingian moral norms demonstrates how gender interacted with political and religious thought to create a distinctive Frankish elite culture, presenting a new picture of early medieval masculinity.Cambridge studies in medieval life and thought ;4th ser., 81.Morality & Masculinity in the Carolingian EmpireCarolingiansConduct of lifeNobilityFranceConduct of lifeChristian ethicsFranceHistoryTo 1500Moral educationFranceHistoryTo 1500MasculinityFranceHistoryTo 1500FranceHistoryTo 987FranceSocial conditionsTo 987CarolingiansConduct of life.NobilityConduct of life.Christian ethicsHistoryMoral educationHistoryMasculinityHistory944/.014Stone Rachel936038UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910457533703321Morality and masculinity in the Carolingian empire2458886UNINA
