Description

Discover a rare window into the Middle Ages with this volume from the Central European Medieval Texts series. This book provides the autobiography of Charles IV, one of the fourteenth century's most influential rulers. It follows his journey from his early childhood in the French royal court through his marriage and his rise to the political stage, ending with his election as King of Germany in 1346. This edition is particularly valuable for historians and students because it includes the first English translation of the Legend of Saint Wenceslas, written by Charles IV himself. This unique combination of personal history and religious legend offers a deep look into the life of the Holy Roman Emperor and King of Bohemia.
