Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book comprehensively examines the nature and duties of kingship as elaborated in four key texts from the ninth century: Smaragd of Saint-Mihiel's Via Regia, Jonas of Orleans' De institutione regia, Hinkmar of Reims' De regis persona et regio ministerio, and Sedulius Scottus' Liber de rectoribus Christianis. Produced in close association with the Carolingian courts, these works sought to define the responsibilities of rulers and the relationship between church and state. The author charts the historical development of these ideas, placing them within the broader context of early medieval political thought. The book delves into the expectations and ideals of rulership during this period, shedding light on the intellectual and religious currents that shaped conceptions of political authority in the Carolingian era. By exploring the complexities of kingship in the ninth century, this book provides valuable insights into the evolution of medieval political thought and its enduring legacy.
