书籍简介

艾因哈德的《查理曼大帝的生活》是一部引人入胜的编年史，讲述了所有中世纪统治者中较强大和较有活力的一位，由一位亲密的朋友和顾问撰写。它以优雅的散文描述了查理曼大帝的个人生活，详细介绍了他在恢复学习和艺术方面的成就，叙述了他的军事成就，并描述了欧洲历史上的一个决定性时刻： 公元800年圣诞节，查理曼大帝在罗马加冕为皇帝。相比之下，诺克尔的叙述是在查理曼死后几十年写成的，是一个轶事集，而不是对历史事实的介绍。

Einhard's Life of Charlemagne is an absorbing chronicle of one of the most powerful and dynamic of all medieval rulers, written by a close friend and adviser. In elegant prose it describes Charlemagne's personal life, details his achievements in reviving learning and the arts, recounts his military successes and depicts one of the defining moments in European history: Charlemagne's coronation as emperor in Rome on Christmas Day 800AD. By contrast, Notker's account, written some decades after Charlemagne's death, is a collection of anecdotes rather than a presentation of historical facts.

作者简介

EINHARD大约于公元770年出生在美因河谷的贵族父母家中。他成为查理曼及其家族的朋友，并被选中邀请查理曼在813年为他的儿子加冕为继承人。查理曼大帝死后，他是虔诚的路易斯的忠实仆人，他于840年去世。

巴尔布勒（NOTKER BALBULUS）大约840年出生在瑞士圣加尔修道院附近，小时候进入修道院。他在884年至887年期间为胖皇帝查理写了关于查理曼的记述。他还创作了一本带音乐的序列书，一本殉道书（897），以及诗歌、信件和宪章。他在修道院学校任教，直到912年去世。

EINHARD was born of noble parents in the Main valley around A.D. 770. He became a friend of Charlemagne and his family, and was chosen to invite Charlemagne to crown his son as his successor in 813. After Charlemagne’s death he was a loyal servant of Louis the Pious, and he died in 840.

NOTKER BALBULUS ( The Stammerer) was born near the monastery of St Gall, in Switzerland, around 840, and entered the monastery as a boy. He wrote his account of Charlemagne for the Emperor Charles the Fat between 884 and 887. He also composed a book of sequences with music, a Martyrology (897), and poems, letters and charters. He taught at the monastic school until his death in 912.
