The primary focus is on the remarkable manifestations of historical writing in relation to historical memory in the Frankish kingdoms of the eighth and ninth centuries. It considers the audiences for history in the Frankish kingdoms, the recording of memory in new genres including narrative histories, cartularies and Libri memoriales, and thus particular perceptions of the Frankish and Christian past. It analyses both original manuscript material and key historical texts from the Carolingian period, a remarkably creative period in the history of European culture. Presentations of the past developed in this period were crucial in forming an historical understanding of the Greco-Roman and Judaeo-Christian past and, in subsequent centuries, of early medieval Europe. They also played an extraordinarily influential role in the formation of political ideologies and senses of identity within Europe. 517 3 $aHistory & Memory in the Carolingian World 606 $aHistoriography$zEurope$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aHistory$xPhilosophy$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aCarolingians$xHistoriography 607 $aEurope$xHistory$y476-1492$xHistoriography 607 $aFrance$xHistory$yTo 987$xHistoriography 615 0$aHistoriography$xHistory 615 0$aHistory$xPhilosophy$xHistory 615 0$aCarolingians$xHistoriography. 676 $a940.1 700 $aMcKitterick$b Rosamond$0161733 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910457891003321 996 $aHistory and memory in the carolingian world$91018026 997 $aUNINA
