Theodulf of Orléans (c. 750 - 821) was a writer, poet and the Bishop of Orléans during the reign of Charlemagne and Louis the Pious. He was a key member of the Carolingian Renaissance and an important figure during the many reforms of the church under Charlemagne.
This collection of some seventy poems is remarkable for its energy, diversity, and visualization of Carolingian court life.
Until now the poems have been available only in an unpublished prose, but the present version attempts to make the poems available to a general audience in a readable form.
