"The Life of Charlemagne (Charles the Great)" by Thomas Hodgkin is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book provides a comprehensive exploration of the life and legacy of Charlemagne, a pivotal figure in the shaping of medieval Europe. It delves into his rise as the King of the Franks, his campaigns, and his role in the transformation of Western Europe during the early Middle Ages. The opening of the work sets the stage for Charlemagne's significance in history, portraying him as a central figure in the transition from the classical world to a new European order. It highlights the conditions of the world during his time, including the decline of the Roman Empire and the rise of various ethnic groups. Hodgkin emphasizes the importance of understanding Charlemagne's predecessors and the historical context leading up to his reign. The introduction suggests that the narrative will weave together Charlemagne's biography with the broader historical tapestry of the time, outlining both his achievements and the political dynamics of the era.
