After Charlemagne's death in 814, Italy was ruled by a succession
of kings and emperors, all of whom could claim some relation to the
Carolingians, some via the female line of succession. This study
offers new perspectives on the fascinating but neglected period of
Italy in the ninth century and the impact of Carolingian culture.
Bringing together some of the foremost scholars on early medieval
Italy, After Charlemagne offers the first comprehensive overview of
the period, and also presents new research on Italian politics,
culture, society and economy, from the death of Charlemagne to the
assassination of Berengar I in 924. Revealing Italy as a
multifaceted peninsula, the authors address the governance and
expansion of Carolingian Italy, examining relations with the other
Carolingian kingdoms, as well as those with the Italian South, the
Papacy and the Byzantine Empire. Exploring topics on a regional and
local level as well as presenting a 'big picture' of the Italian or
Lombard kingdom, this volume provides new and exciting answers to
the central question: How Carolingian was 'Carolingian Italy'?
