Cullen J. Chandler Knihy

Using a range of evidence, Chandler addresses the political development of the Carolingian Spanish March as part of the Carolingian 'experiment'. Tracing the region's relationship with the monarchy over two centuries, he revises traditional views of ethnic motivations for action and prior interpretations of the constitutional birth of Catalonia.

The book offers a comprehensive overview of western Europe during the eighth and ninth centuries, highlighting the emergence of a distinct European civilization from the remnants of the Roman Empire. It delves into the cultural, political, and social transformations that characterized the Carolingian Age, providing readers with insights into this pivotal period in history.
