Synopsis uitgever
"Becher succeeds in combining a masterful account of the life stages of the 'powerful figure' and the myth of Charlemagne with a precise and impressive representation of his era." Die Zeit; "A remarkably informed, informative, and admirably up-to-date 'personal interpretation' of the Frankish emperor's character, reign, and legacy.... Highly recommended." Choice; "An excellent introduction." Historical Association Review; "More concerned to strip away layers of legend than to add to them, Becher's book may be prosaic - but there's a sense to the historical heart of things that offers excitements of its own." Michael Kerrigan, The Scotsman" Meer lezen...
