Excerpt from Life of the Emperor Karl the Great As the notes to this English edition of Eginhard's Life of Karl the Great are intended for the use of young students of history, and profess only to direct the attention briefly to what has been insisted on at length by able historians, it may be found useful to mention some of those English writers in whose works the best information may be obtained on this period of history. Gibbon's "Roman Empire" is the standard work on the history of the Empire, Greek and Latin, and of the barbarian nations who invaded it. On the Empire of Karl the Great and his successors, the German Emperors of the Roman Empire, their influence and pretensions, and on the rise and power of the Papacy, Professor Bryce's "Holy Roman Empire" is a work of interest and repute.
