  Theodulf - LoveToKnow 1911
THEODULF, bishop of Orleans, was born about the middle of the 8th century, of a noble family of Gothic extraction, probably in Spain.
Theodulf asserted his innocence to the end, and no proof of his guilt has come down to us; in fact, from what we know of the bishop's life and political principles we should presuppose his innocence.
Theodulf was the author of at least part of the hymn for Palm Sunday, the Gloria laws.

 Theodulf
Theodulf's most important work for the king known to us was his service as a royal overseer of justice, a missus dominicus.
Theodulf wrote the Libri Carolini ("Charlemagne's Books," called so because the text was written in the name of Charlemagne), the official response of the Frankish empire to the Byzantine document produced at the Second Council of Nicaea.
Theodulf served as bishop of Orleans from about 798 until 818, when, accused of involvement in the conspiracy of Bernard, King of Italy, against Louis the Pious, he was deposed from his bishopric and imprisoned for some time, then exiled to the fortress at Angers, where he died in 821.

Theodulf wrote the Libri Carolini ('Charlemagne's Books', called so because the text was written in the name of Charlemagne), the official response of the Frankish empire to the Byzantine document produced at the Second Council of Nicaea (787 AD).
As regards language and metre he occupies the first place among the poets of the Carlovingian era and distinguished himself by spirit and skill; particularly interesting are the letters which he wrote in the form of poems giving an animated picture of the life at court.
Theodulf wrote a hymn still used by Roman Catholics and Lutherans for Palm Sunday, the Sunday before Easter: Gloria, laus, et honor, "Glory, praise, and honor" (Analecta hymnica, L, 160 sq.), which came into liturgical use, and has gone down in the hymn-books for all time as 'All glory, laud and honour".

Theodulf was born most probably in 750, probably of Spanish Visigoth origin, whose history we first pick up in Languedoc, the region of southern France.
Upon the death of Charlemagne (814), Theodulf remained a trusted envoy of the realm until he was accused (818) of complicity with Bernard, King of the Lombards (810-818) who had risen against the Emperor.
The charge was unjust, but Theodulf was judged guilty and confined to a monastery in Angers as punishment where he died in 821.

Almost all were successful in the leap, but with three horses only a few succeeded, and Theodulf alone was able to leap over four, and as he drew back into the crowd behind the horses, he made a gesture with his hand to the attendants.
It was difficult to satisfy all with a seat of honor, but the herald understood his office, and knew how to recommend to many their places, on account either of their neighbor, or of being near the ladies, or of having a good view of the hall.
Then, when all were sitting in expectation, the cup-bearer entered with the servants, carrying in beautiful wooden goblets the greeting draft; the host rose, and drank to the good health of the guests, and all stood up and emptied their goblets.

Of the two basic trends in Carolingian culture, the “insular” orientation of Charlemagne’s court at Aachen had, as is well known, a lasting impact on the development of Western culture.
The project will elucidate the techniques and motives that characterized the theology of Spanish refugees at the turn of the century and the extent to which they informed later scholars, especially in the School of Auxerre.

Theodulf's +"The Fox and Hen" makes a brief appearance, described as a riposte to Alcuin's poem, as do Alcuin's +Letter 181 and +Eclogue on Dodo, cited as evidence for the use of animal nicknames in Carolingian court circles, in the latter piece extending to the poetic attribution of avian qualities to the person.
Theodulf's +"What do the Swans Do?" appears unattractively as an abusive jeu d'esprit displaying only superficial similarities to John the Deacon's verse version of "Cyprian's Supper." Theodulf's +"The Battle of the Birds" appears as an early example of complaint about real people cloaked in animal disguise, to which Alcuin's letter 181 might be compared.
Several speculative topical explanations are summarized, but left inconclusively with the comment that "the poet judged the moral [either] too obvious or too dangerous to bear direct statement" (66).

Section B, the Carolingians, surveys Fulda, largely because it is an English foundation (the book is carefully oriented to English MSS and English contributions to medieval Biblical studies).
Since Gibson gives no dates for these scholars, and the order in which they are presented might lead a reader to believe that Theodulf was older than Alcuin; even worse, that the twelfth century codex (plate 8) of the Biblical commentary of Rabanus was contemporary with him.
Gibson offers a useful description of how these tables operate using as her example a modest MS (London BL Harley 2795, a French MS of the first third of the ninth century).

And this I say to thee --- when Theodulf's wooers come to the house, and assent is given to their coming, then shall they find a broom in front of the door at which they go out, that they may guess what we maidens think of their wooing."
But on the twelfth night of the New Year the Prince was to release him from his oath; then Theodulf would make his entrance as a free wooer, and the marriage might take place in the spring.
All was determined --- even the bridal presents and dowry --- and the Princess advised that the men should renew to each other their old promise concerning this secret arrangement.

Now, given his date and location we know that Andrew’s critic Theodulf would himself have pronounced a Latin c before front vowels (ae, e, i, oe, y) in a non-Classical, “assibilated” fashion resembling s (so this would have applied in caelo, ascensu and amicitiis).
As Sidwell points out,[vi] it is a little odd that Theodulf’s otherwise densely-packed poem should “spend two lines on giving examples of the occurrence of the letter c.
The full poem runs to two hundred and forty-four lines, beginning with praise of the emperor Charlemagne and his family and turning to pithy word-sketches of about a dozen of Theodulf’s fellow courtiers, among them the unfortunate Gael (not named by Theodulf, but conclusively identified by Bischoff 1967: 19-25).
