“PEPIN”
“LOUIS”
.
(‘778’ – ‘840’)
(died ’20 june 840′)
(‘age 62’)
.
also called
the fair,
and the debonaire
.
*”louis the pious” was the ‘king of aquitaine’ from ‘781’ on*
.
(he was also ‘king of the franks’ and ‘co-emperor’ (as louis I) with his father (‘charlemagne’) of the ‘holy roman empire’ from ‘813’ on)
(as the only surviving adult son of ‘charlemagne’ and ‘hildegard’, he became the sole ruler of the ‘franks’ after his father’s death in ‘814’, a position which he held until his ‘death’, save for the period ‘833’ – ‘834’, during which he was ‘deposed’)
(during his reign in ‘aquitaine’, ‘louis’ was charged with the ‘defense’ of the empire’s ‘southwestern frontier’).
(he conquered ‘barcelona’ from the ‘muslims’ in ‘801’ and asserted ‘frankish authority’ over ‘pamplona’ and the ‘basques’ south of the ‘pyrenees’ in ‘812’)
(as ’emperor’ he included his adult sons, ‘lothair’, ‘pepin’, and ‘louis’, in the ‘government’ and sought to establish a suitable division of the ‘realm’ among them)
(the first decade of his ‘reign’ was characterized by several ‘tragedies’ and ’embarrassments’, notably the brutal treatment of his nephew “‘bernard’ of ‘italy'”, for which ‘louis’ atoned in a public act of ‘self-debasement’)
(in the ‘830s’ his ’empire’ was torn by ‘civil war’ between his ‘sons’, only exacerbated by louis’s attempts to include his son ‘charles’ (by his 2nd wife) in the ‘succession plans’)
(though his ‘reign’ ended on a ‘high note’, with ‘order’ largely restored to his ’empire’, it was followed by 3 years of ‘civil war’)
.
(‘louis’ is generally compared unfavorably to his ‘father’, though the ‘problems’ he faced were of a distinctly different ‘sort’)
