Brian Boru, when the Danes were pillaging the Irish countryside.
How his foster-father Angus becomes poet to the High King and how
Ferdiad himself recovers a lost treasure. Gives a glimpse into the
customs and social life of the Celts, with special emphasis on
their artistic achievements, including the Book of Kells and the
stories of Cuculain. Suitable for ages 8 and up.
Through the eyes of Rainolf, a boy at the court of Charlemagne, we
catch a glimpse of life in the Frankish kingdom, including dress,
occupations, and amusements. We learn how Charlemagne brought
Alcuin from England to establish schools in his kingdom and how he
encouraged the development of the arts, including the recitation of
poetry such as the Song of Roland. We hear about Einhard, a close
associate of Charlemagne, who wrote a biography of him after his
death. Finally, we travel to Rome to see Charlemagne crowned Holy
Roman Emperor on Christmas Day in 800 A.D. Suitable for ages 8 and
up.
