The Life of Charlemagne

af Einhard
Bag om The Life of Charlemagne

Einhard's biography of the Carolingian Empire's founder The Life of Charlemagne (Vita Karoli Magni) is one of the most famous pieces of literature on the early Middle Ages. It is both an epic and personal account of the legendary warrior king who was known as the Father of Europe, providing a fascinating insight into his political success, battlefield strategy, foreign and domestic policies, friends, enemies, and personal habits. For scholars of military science, it is an essential bridge text linking the masterworks of ancient strategy like The Art of War and Commentarii de Bello Gallico with the future writings of Machiavelli, Clausewitz, et al.
