Life of Charlemagne (Einhard)
The 'Life of Charlemagne' (Vita Karoli Magni), written by Einhard around 817-830, is a biography commissioned by Charlemagne's son, Louis the Pious. As Charlemagne's court historian, Einhard provides detailed insights into the life and character of the Frankish king, drawing on the Frankish Royal annals. The work is notable for its classical style, influenced by Suetonius' 'Lives of the Caesars', and serves as a crucial historical document about Charlemagne's reign and legacy.
