"Roman Barbarians" investigates the nature of early medieval
culture, and what place the royal court had in it. It explores the
place of the royal court and the operation of patronage through it
in several European kingdoms of the early Middle Ages, such as the
Ostrogothic court of Theoderic the Great, the Vandal court of
Thrasamund, the Frankish courts of Dagobert I and the Visigothic
court of Sisebut. It seeks to identify the roots of later medieval
developments, and especially of the so-called Carolingian
Renaissance, in the centuries immediately succeeding the period of
Roman rule. After all, it was in that formative period that Roman
and Christian ideas and practices came together to be mingled with
indigenous Germanic practices, to produce the seeds of what we now
call 'the medieval civilization'.
