Did Charlemagne deserve the title of emperor? In what ways was his kingdom an heir to the Roman
Empire, and in what ways did it depart from its predecessor?
Why did Charlemagne’s kingdom disintegrate shortly after his death? How had he managed to hold it
together for as long as he had?
Be sure to use Einhard’s Life of Charlemagne.
It must answer these questions while also providing quotes from both my Experience Humanities by Roy T
Matthews textbook of which I have attached pictures of the relevant pages for this assignment. A majority of
the quotes and quote analysis should come from this primary source, The Life of Charlemagne by Einhard. I
have also attached images of this selection of text. Each quote must be properly analyzed and related back
to the questions. I have attached screenshots of what I have already completed as well as my professors
instructions for this essay. I do not need a works cited page nor any footnotes.
