| Abstract

"Imprégnés de leur rôle de vicaires du Christ, les empereurs carolingiens se voulaient protecteurs de leurs peuples, législateurs et juges, mais aussi recteurs de l'Église. Ils ont élaboré un idéal de gouvernement ambitieux, visant à corriger, étendre et guider la société chrétienne. À l'échelle de la Gaule, de l'Italie, de leurs conquêtes en Germanie et en Espagne, Charlemagne et Louis le Pieux pouvaient-ils réaliser leur plan? Confrontés au problème essentiel des distances, ils ont relevé le défien misant sur la délégation hiérarchique et les communications. Leurs efforts ont déterminé la nature de leurs échanges, mais aussi leurs limites et le destin de leur empire."--P. [4] of cover.

Impregnated with their role as vicars of Christ, the Carolingian emperors wanted to be protectors of their peoples, legislators and judges, but also rectors of the Church. They developed an ambitious government ideal, aimed at correcting, expanding and guiding Christian society. On the scale of Gaul, of Italy, of their conquests in Germany and Spain, could Charlemagne and Louis the Pious realize their plan? Confronted with the essential problem of distance, they took up the challenge by focusing on hierarchical delegation and communications. Their efforts determined the nature of their exchanges, but also their limits and the fate of their empire. On the scale of Gaul, of Italy, of their conquests in Germany and Spain, could Charlemagne and Louis the Pious realize their plan? Confronted with the essential problem of distance, they took up the challenge by focusing on hierarchical delegation and communications. Their efforts determined the nature of their exchanges, but also their limits and the fate of their empire. The survey uses a wide range of documents - diplomatic acts, legislative documents and correspondence. It takes into account the material and technical aspects of travel and the movement of people. By considering the meeting and the remote communications from an anthropological point of view, the author proposes a study of the networks which illuminates the modes of transmission of the information and the exercise of the power.--Translation of page 4 of cover by Brepols.
