Back cover: A modest man of great accomplishments, Walahfrid Strabo was a fine poet,
teacher, abbot, gardener, liturgist, and diplomat. His personal notebook reveals that
he loved arithmetic and astronomy. For a decade, he tutored Carolus iunior, youngest
son of Judith and Ludwig der Fromme, who became emperor Charles the Bald. On two occasions,
Walahfrid found and transcribed formulae and explanations of time series, often correcting
them. By identifying Walahfrid's sources and scripts, Professor Stevens is able to
trace his life and scholarship, as they relate to Carolingian politics and schools
in the first half of ninth-century Europe
