An evaluation of Emperor Louis the Pious' reign which examines the background and context of Louis' public penance in 833. Through a profound re-reading of contemporary texts that reflected on legitimate authority in times of crisis, Mayke de Jong reveals that self-humiliation served to enhance royal authority.
