‘Its fourteen contributors seek, in distinct but complementary
ways, to draw together Hincmar’s life and work in order to
understand better not only the man himself, but also the late
Carolingian world which is so often evoked through his
writings.’
Ingrid Rembold, Hertford College, University of Oxford, Early
Medieval Europe Vol. 25 Issue 2
'The editors are to be commended for bringing together a set of
perceptive and well-researched studies (ninety-three pages of
endnotes in 288 pages of text with an uncommonly detailed index)
that ask the right questions and will prompt new thinking about one
of the Carolingian age’s great figures.'
