“Charlemagne lingered in the city until Christmas Day. He went to morning mass, knelt for the prayers, and he began to get to his feet, Leo III came forward and put a gold crown on his head. The crowd, which had been coached, cheered: “Long life and victory to Charles, the pious Augustus, the great peace-loving Emperor, crowned by God!” He had been crowned “imperator et augustus”, two titles that belonged to the emperor of Rome…But in the eyes of Charlemagne, the title of emperor had been unclaimed until his coronation…”

“Charles’s biographer Einhard claims that Charlemagne knew nothing about the plan to crown him and denied ever wanting the imperial title. But he is the only writer who assumes such massive ignorance on the part of the sharp-minded and wary king. The crowning on Christmas Day was simply a formal recognition of an authority that Charlemagne had been claiming for some time: the authority to stand as the protector of faith, guarantor of civilization, and highest civil power in the Christian world”.
