Imprégnés de leur rôle de vicaires du Christ, les empereurs carolingiens se voulaient protecteurs de leurs peuples, législateurs et juges, mais aussi recteurs de l’Église. Ils ont élaboré un idéal de gouvernement ambitieux, visant à corriger, étendre et guider la société chrétienne.À l’échelle de la Gaule, de l’Italie, de leurs conquêtes en Germanie et en Espagne, Charlemagne et Louis le Pieux pouvaient-ils réaliser leur plan ? Confrontés au problème essentiel des distances, ils ont relevé le défi en misant sur la délégation hiérarchique et les communications. Leurs efforts ont déterminé la nature de leurs échanges, mais aussi leurs limites et le destin de leur empire.L’enquête utilise un vaste éventail documentaire – actes diplomatiques, documents législatifs et correspondances. Elle tient compte des aspects matériels et techniques des déplacements et de la circulation des personnes. En considérant la rencontre et les communications à distance d’un point de vue anthropologique, l’auteur propose une étude des réseaux qui éclaire les modes de transmission de l’information et l’exercice du pouvoir.Au-delà des considérations propres à l’histoire des VIIIe-IXe siècles, le livre démontre l’intérêt d’aborder les réalités politiques prémodernes du point de vue des défis à la fois technologiques et relationnels que présentent les distances géographiques, le mouvement des hommes, les rencontres et les communications.

Medieval France saw Constantinople as something of a quintessential ideal city. Aspects of Byzantine life were imitated in and assimilated to the West in a movement of political and cultural renewal, but the Byzantine capital was also celebrated as the locus of a categorical and inimitable difference. This book analyses the debate between renewal and utopia in Western attitudes to Constantinople as it evolved through the twelfth and thirteenth centuries in a series of vernacular (Old French, Occitan and Franco-Italian) texts, including the Pèlerinage de Charlemagne, Girart de Roussillon, Partonopeus de Blois, the poetry of Rutebeuf, and the chronicles by Geoffroy de Villehardouin and Robert de Clari, both known as the Conquête de Constantinople. It establishes how the texts' representation of the West's relationship with Constantinople enacts this debate between renewal and utopia; demonstrates that analysis of this relationship can contribute to a discussion on the generic status of the texts themselves; and shows that the texts both react to the socio-cultural context in which they were produced, and fulfil a role within that context. Dr Rima Devereaux is an independent scholar based in London.
