  • Summary

    This contribution is designed to give an overview of the political history of Italy in the ninth century. As the other contributions in this voume are to be far more precise about certain aspects, the aim of this chapter is mainly to provide a grid on which the reader can get easy access to the developments in Italy in this period. The chapter thus starts with Charlemagne's policy in Italy, but then quickly moves on to Louis the Pious and his son, Lothar I. The main focus is then on the rule of Louis II, whose tenure can be seen as the pinnacle of Carolingian influence on Italian soil. An epiloge then provides the most important developments into the tenth century.
