Using the legend of Charlemagne, an often-overlooked current in early medieval thought, An Empire of Memory looks at how the contours of the relationship between East and West moved across centuries, particularly in the period leading up to the First Crusade.

Matthew Gabriele received his Ph.D. in History from the University of California, Berkeley. He has published widely on topics related to Charlemagne, kingship, and religiosity in the eleventh century. He has also co-edited, with Jace Stuckey, an interdisciplinary volume of essays on the medieval legend of Charlemagne entitled The Legend of Charlemagne in the Middle Ages: Power, Faith, and Crusade. His next project investigates how a shift in language signalled a change in how the West understood the relationship between past, present, and future.
