Thank you for the RIP, I didn't know Nick the creator of this wonderful channel has passed away, apparently two years ago. Very sad to hear about a thirty year old leaving this world. I thought he was a damn professor, very smart.
Thank you for this beautiful video. Not sure it's the right niche but if anyone's very much into the Carolingian courtly ideology and lifestyle I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's content on the topic. I'd love to see a coop. Keep up with the great work
Wonderful, a learned man given voice. History ought to be preserved. Accurate or not, he gives a good idea of what many thought of the past king (I think). You have my gratitude!
No need to apologize for your french language, we know by the fact that in carlemany times, two languages were the mist important, germanic and old occitan/ proto catalan, nothing french as french language was made up much later
This is wrong and insane. The langues d'oïl, of which French is part of, started to differenciate itself from vulgar latin in during the Carolingian era, like the langues d'oc
@@yoeyyoey8937 I presume that WYM stands for what do you mean?(I'm not that familiar with internet abbreviations!) What I meant was that Eginhardt would have had access to monastic copies of the lives of imperial Roman rulers -like Suetonius' "12 Caesars", Tacitus and Plutarch and he would have noted certain events in their lives and certain character traits concerning these great ancient rulers - so he would exalt the reputation and glory of Charlemagne by giving him positive character traits and accounts of conquests and the like that were reminiscent of Julius Caesar or similar ancient heroes thereby stretching the truth a little. In other words he was using well worn formulas.
Charlemagne was King David in a former life. Cicero took credit for the wisdom of one of his slave's just as thomas edison and steve jobs took credit for their subordinates' inventions.
Thanks for carrying on Nick's legacy.
I can't think of any other voice on the channel now.

RIP Nick, forever in our hearts

Good content with usual western bias. ‘Ever known’ seems bold statement to me. Thank you. Stay safe & warm.
Eginhardt and similar writers often used classical models and this went as far as bending the facts to suit the previous imperial models.

@@kaloarepo288 that makes sense like he was writing in their style?

The amount of commercials on this video is ridiculous.
