Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book narrates how the Popes of the 8th century, caught between the waning Byzantine Empire and the rising power of the Lombards in Italy, turned to the Frankish kings for protection. The author focuses on the pontificates of Gregory II, Gregory III, Zachary, and Stephen II, who each adopted the policy of playing one power against the other, to maintain the independence of the Papal States. Examining original documents and historical sources, the author sheds new light on this complex period, exploring the political and religious motivations of the Papacy and the Frankish rulers. The book's detailed analysis of the events leading to the eventual Frankish intervention in Italy in 754 AD provides valuable insights into the origins of the Papal States and the foundations of the medieval alliance between the Papacy and the Carolingian Empire.
