Rather, feeling poem intermedial, lay conceptually between literary media, therefore unable to stand on own thus inherently mediocre.

Part one would concern “the form government, public private, Gauls living in liberty before Romans had envied, undermined, eventually seized their dominion.” It detail religion (its priests rituals), nobility composition, privileges, lifestyle), lesser social orders (merchants, artisans, commoners), institutions (laws, magistrates, other officials) — “in brief, everything notable about so little-known state.” two follow same pattern but even greater detail, examining changes introduced by “religion, administration, justice, military discipline, finances, business, ” as well changes.

by Leah Shopkow
Duco of Saint-Quentin's De moribus et actis primorum Normanniae ducum has presented difficulties for scholars, both because it is inaccurate history and could not be assigned to any literary-historical tradition, apart from the Aeneid. However, previously unnoted models, particularly Vita sancti Lamberti Stephen Liège Germani Heiric Auxerre, open a new perspective on Dudo's work. His use these texts, his style standard Merovingian Carolingian poetic conventions, suggest that he was educated at traditional centre, probably Liège. The Demoribus tells conversion dukes their gradual extirpation paganism. Because Carolingians believed rulers have secular ecclesiastical responsibilities, hagiography predominantly form, serial biography, makes sense.
