Abstract
Charlemagne remains a dominant figure in European historiography and memory, one of the few early medieval rulers whose name is known outside academic circles. In March of 2014 the German Historical Institute in Paris held a colloquium to mark the 1,200th anniversary of his death, and the colloquium’s proceedings have now been published. The volume contains 27 essays (twelve in French, nine in English, and six in German, with summaries in English for each essay at the end of the book) distributed across six parts. After giving brief summaries of each essay, I will provide an overall assessment of the book.
