About the book

Just after the Latin, the IX th century, the French language was written in a prominent and context for political purposes (Oaths of Strasbourg, 842); it is singularly early. A grandson of Charlemagne, a diplomatic prince, a Latinist warrior, had the idea of ​​his written use; Nithard is the inventor of the French language. He was also the first writer: French literature was born of his sorrow. The rise of French and its Letters owes so much to Nithard, to whom the centuries have been ungrateful with constancy. At the end of a Carolingian road movie , the reader will know why.--page 4 of cover.
