'Its fourteen contributors seek, in distinct but complementary ways, to draw together Hincmar's life and work in order to understand better not only the man himself, but also the late Carolingian world which is so often evoked through his writings.' Ingrid Rembold, Hertford College, University of Oxford, Early Medieval Europe Vol. 25 Issue 2
