The Life of Charlemagne: Vita Karoli Magni by Einhard (Bauer World Press)
The Vita Karoli Magni, or The Life of Charlemagne, is an esteemed historical text composed by Einhard, a learned contemporary and confidant of Emperor Charlemagne. Composed in the early 9th century, this biographical account stands as a paragon of Carolingian historiography and offers profound insight into the life and deeds of one of medieval Europe's most eminent sovereigns.
Through a new translation and contextual commentary, the Bauer World Press Edition of the Vita Karoli Magni aims to be the most comprehensive rendition of the twenty-first century. It will attempt to serve not only as a translation, but a contribution. It will attempt to weave a cohesive narrative around the lands, peoples, and key figures during the early days of the Carolingian Empire.
Many chapters have been augmented with information pertinent to the reader, endeavouring to provide context for both those well-versed with, and new, to the chronicles of Charlemagne. Finally, it will shed light on an often overlooked figure, the man behind the quill - Einhard.
