Paper Summary:

This paper reviews the Dark Ages, the period from circa 500 AD up to about 1066 AD when William I became Norman king of England, period that is often unjustly been referred to as a largely uneventful epoch in which Europe essentially lost track of its past and ignored its cultural legacy. According to the paper, the truth is somewhat more complex and it now seems evident that the Dark Ages were a period wherein concerted and dynamic efforts were made to reconstitute the ancient Roman Empire - if only in Western Europe. The following paper will explore one of the most remarkable phenomena of the period - Charlemagne's crowning as "Emperor of the Romans" in 800 AD - and outline why he was crowned as such and the enduring significance of the event.
