Zusammenfassung: This book delves into the reign of Liutprand, a pivotal Lombard king from 712 to 744, exploring his role in the broader context of early medieval European history. It examines the dynamics of power during this transitional period, characterized by the tension between central authority and local governance. The work challenges the predominance of Carolingian models by highlighting the distinct governance and cultural identity of the Lombard kingdom. The author aims to provide a nuanced understanding of Liutprand's rule as a significant moment in Italian history, marking the end of Late Antiquity and the commencement of the Early Middle Ages. The intended audience includes scholars and students of medieval history, particularly those interested in Italian and Lombard history.
