Titova, A. O. Revival of the Rome Empire: the issue of Carolingian idea of empire
Abstract:
Abstract: the article is aimed at answering the question what made Carl the Great to declare himself an imperator and to revive the empire in the West and what that empire was like. The author is analyzing contradictory data and points of views on that event. It is concluded that Frankish empire was potentially universal because it was based on the idea of the Christianand the Roman empires altogether. The author suggested that Carl accepted the Roman tradition even though his Carolingian idea of empire had other elements as well. In conclusion the author also described the three “roots” of the Roman idea of empire which determined the historical development of the West.
