He was also known to his contemporaries as Europae Pater, "the Father off Europe". Today, the city of Aachen in Germany awards a "e Prize" to the person who best advances the cause of European unity. A conference room in the buildings of the European Union in Strasbourg, France, is called "The Room" ". Who wass this man whose long shadow stretches even to the beginningg of the 21st century? More importantly, what did he do 1200 years ago that still commands our attention? The "World of " offers us an important case study of historical change. For the first time since the break-up to think about what European civilization and society should be like. In the hands of the Roman Empire in the West during the fourth and fifth centuries, people began of and his advisors and successors, Europeans began to take action to implement their ideas. One of the resultss of their thinking andd their efforts was the creation of the Carolingian Empire. It was 's conquest andd dominationn of most of western Europe during his long reign ( ) that have earned him a pre-eminent place in historical annals. Yet, there is much more to the world of than a tale off conquest and empire. resourcess did draw on when he and hiss advisors fashioned their world? What How

2 successful were they? How did they respond to challenges, disappointments, and failures? How did their efforts affect the lives of others--non-franks as well as Frankish men, women, and children? What impact did 's career have on politics, religion, the economy, intellectual and cultural life. We will also be interestedd to find out how 's world endured after his death and what impact it might have had on European civilization in the short term and generally. In addition to focusing on and his world, our semester's work will also attempt to analyze how civilizations try to fashion themselves. It will be attentive to the interplay between individuals and groups, between ideals and realities, between court and local interests, and among competing sources of power and authority. The rich art of the period will be discussed as symbolic representations of how Carolingians thought about themselves and their society. Althoughh the semester s work will focus on and hiss world, the course willl also include the perspectives of his successors and rivals, as well as off Saxons, Vikings, Muslims, Byzantines, bishops, abbots, and important men and women who also populated s world and helped to shape its successes as well as its failures. Finally, the semester's work willl provide students with an opportunity to develop their analytical (= thinking) skills by reading, thinking, and discussion. They will learn to read historical documents in context and to analyze those documents for what they reveal about a particular period in human history. This course will use lectures, readings, discussions, andd images to try as best as possible within 15 weeks to create a portrait of a complex and fascinating time,, a time whose failures and successess affected history long after 's world collapsed..
