Abstract

In Charlemagne’s Survey of the Holy Land, Michael McCormick rehabilitates and reinterprets one of the most neglected and extraordinary sources from Charlemagne’s revival of the Roman empire: the report of a fact-finding mission to the Christian church of the Holy Land. The roll of documents translated and edited in this volume preserves the most detailed statistical portrait before the Domesday Book of the finances, monuments (including exact dimensions), and female and male personnel of any major Christian church. Setting these documents in the context of economic trends, archaeological evidence, and a comparison of Holy Land churches and monasteries with their contemporaries west and east, this study shows that the Palestinian church was living in decline as its old financial links with Byzantium slackened. In recounting Charlemagne’s move to outflank the Byzantine emperor, McCormick constructs a microhistory of the Frankish king’s ambitions and formidable organizational talents for running an empire. Supplementing McCormick’s major synthesis, The Origins of the European Economy, this volume will be indispensable reading for anyone interested in medieval rulership and economics, and in the history of the Holy Land, its Christian communities, and its late antique monuments.

Abstract

"Le règne de Charlemagne est un moment politique fondateur, qui évoque pour nous la construction des institutions légales de l'Europe chrétienne. Revenant sur cet épisode clé de l'histoire européenne, Jean-Pierre Devroey en tire des réflexions très actuelles : Et si la réinvention carolingienne du pouvoir et le désir de refonder les lois avaient eu affaire avant tout avec la croissance démographique et la menace de la faim ? Et si cette histoire vieille de douze siècles pouvait éclairer le monde d'aujourd'hui ? Des décennies durant, les sociétés européennes eurent en effet à affronter des calamités naturelles meurtrières. Confrontant les textes anciens et les découvertes de l'archéologie à l'immense bibliographie récente sur les dynamiques environnementales, qu'il s'agisse de climatologie, de biologie ou de paléoécologie, Jean-Pierre Devroey parvient à faire revivre la peur de l'effondrement qui hanta les sociétés européennes du haut Moyen Âge, et l'extraordinaire effort créatif qui permit leur résilience. À l'heure où notre société est en proie à l'inquiétude environnementale, il offre une leçon de prudence et d'optimisme." -- Page 4 of cover.
