The Rest Is History
523. Charlemagne: Return of the Kings (Part 1)
Tom Holland
Well, so the thing that's unusual about this is that it's a biography in a kind of Roman style. It echoes Suetonius, the biographer of the Caesars. And that's not a coincidence because Einhardt as a young boy had been sent by his parents to a monastery, not to become a monk, but kind of rather like being sent to a boarding school or something like that.
