Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a fascinating journey through the history of the Germanic peoples and the formation of the Holy Roman Empire. The author examines the early Germanic tribes, their customs and institutions, through the lens of primary sources such as the writings of Tacitus and the Salic Law. By analyzing these documents, the reader gains a unique perspective on the transition from the primitive Germanic societies to the powerful, complex state founded by Charlemagne. The book then delves into the complex relationship between the empire and the papacy, exploring the rise of papal authority and the ensuing power struggles that shaped medieval Europe. Through translations of key documents, the reader witnesses the unfolding of significant events such as the imperial coronations of Charlemagne and Otto I, the investiture controversy, and the rise of the crusades. The authorââ â¢s insightful analysis of these primary sources sheds light on the key political, social, and religious dynamics that defined medieval Europe, offering a compelling glimpse into the past and its lasting influence on the modern world.
