Alcuin – Letters to Charlemagne (Selected)
Abstract
This article comprises three letters of Alcuin to Charlemagne which have not been translated into Polish. In these letters, the Alcuin takes up the most important issues for the Church, such the schismatic threat of Adoptionism. He also explains the doctrinal teaching of the Church, primarily on the divinity of Christ. In addition, Alcuin reflects upon the development of learning in his time and discusses some contemporary and trifle matters. In the footnotes, I have included the most important philological, theological, biographical and geographical remarks which will allow the reader to properly understand the context of the translated letters.
