The volume consists of sixteen papers on the history of Francia
between the seventh and eleventh centuries. Originally published
between 1979 and 2009, the papers are arranged around three
interlinking themes: the relationship between History and
Hagiography, the history of Francia under the respective regimes of
the Merovingan and Carolingian kings, and the problem of how states
with weak governing institutions were able to exercise power over
large areas. The history of Francia has been one of the most
productive areas of early medieval history over the past two
generations. Models of European development have been based on its
rich materials and the fact that the polity lasted for half a
millennium makes it a prime area for the study of the dialectic
between continuity and change. The papers collected here all have
this 'big history' as their background. It is to be hoped that
keying into such questions makes them both accessible and useful
for students and teachers alike.
