"Archbishop Hincmar of Rheims (d.882) is a crucial figure for early medieval European history. As an archbishop for nearly forty years, Hincmar shaped the times in which he lived, advising and admonishing kings, playing a leading role in the Frankish church, and intervening in a range of political and doctrinal disputes. His role in the controversial attempts by King Lothar II to divorce his queen Theutberga has particularly interested researchers. Hincmar also shaped how ninth-century events would later be seen by historians up to the present day by writing historical accounts such as the Annals of St-Bertin, and by carefully preserving dossiers of material for posterity. He is a key source for political, social and religious history in the period, providing information on everything from papal politics to the abduction of women and the role of parish priests. This book puts the archbishop himself centre-stage, bringing together the latest international research across the spectrum of his varied activities, as history-writer, estate administrator, hagiographer, canonist, pastorally-engaged bishop and politically-minded royal advisor. For the first time since Jean Devisses magisterial studies of the 1970s, it offers a three-dimensional examination of a controversial figure whose actions and writings in different fields are often studied in isolation, at the cost of a holistic appreciation. Combining research from recognised experts ... as well as early-career historians, it will be an essential companion for all those interested in the Carolingian world, and early medieval Europe more broadly."--P. [4] of cover.

Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit Quellen zur Geschichte der Bistümer Reims und Trier seit dem 8. Jahrhundert. Am Anfang stehen wesentliche Angaben zur Geschichte dieser Bistümer im frühen Mittelalter, die hauptsächlich auf Nachrichten des einflussreichen Reimser Erzbischofs Hinkmar (845-882) zurückgehen. In der Folge vielfach rezipiert, prägen sie bis heute nachhaltig Überlieferung und Forschungsstand zu beiden Orten. Im Zentrum der Untersuchung stehen ein Reimser Königsgrab und der vermeintliche Bischof Milo, der beide Metropolen längere Zeit gemeinsam innegehabt haben soll. Doch das kirchenrechtlich nur schwer zu begründende Doppelamt und die über mehrere Jahrhunderte gestreuten Zeugnisse weisen erhebliche Widersprüche auf, die man bislang zu einem stimmigen Gesamtbild zu harmonisieren suchte. Hinkmars Ausführungen sowie ihr Fortwirken bilden deshalb den Gegenstand dieser Arbeit. Es gilt, sie sowohl vor dem zeitgenössischen Hintergrund ihrer Abfassungszeit zu problematisieren als auch ihre späteren Verformungen durch die Zeit zu verfolgen. Nimmt man die Spur dieser Verformungen auf, so wird die Kontingenz historischer Nachrichten und Überlieferung deutlich. Von Reims führt ihr Weg bald nach Trier und von dort weiter zu den benachbarten Klöstern Echternach und Mettlach.
