The Rest Is History

524. Charlemagne: Pagan Killer (Part 2)

2263.242 - 2288.897 Dominic Sandbrook

You have to bury a body. Or eating meat during Lent, so the 40 days before Easter. And this is by miles the most brutal program for bringing a people to Christ. that anyone has ever attempted. This is why Alcuin objects to it. He feels that this is not what a Christian king should be doing at all. I think what sharpens this sense for Alcuin is that he is an Anglo-Saxon.
