** Active Table of Contents **
Life of Charlemagne comes complete with a Touch-or-Click Table of Contents, divided by each section.
In addition to Einhard's Life of Charlemagne, there is this other Life of Charlemagne written by the Monk of St. Gall, usually identified with Notker Balbulus.
Notker the Stammerer, also called Notker the Poet or Notker of Saint Gall, was a musician, author, poet, and Benedictine monk at the Abbey of Saint Gall in modern Switzerland. He is commonly accepted to be the Monk of Saint Gall (Monachus Sangallensis), the author of De Carolo Magno, a book of anecdotes about the Emperor Charlemagne.
The Monk of Saint Gall is commonly believed to be Notker the Stammerer: Louis Halphen has delineated the points of similarity between the two: the Monk claims to be old, toothless and stammerering; and both share similar interests in church music, write with similar idioms, and are fond of quoting Virgil. The text is dated to the 880s from mentions in it of Carloman (died 880), half-brother of Charles the Fat, the "circumscribed lands" of Carloman's son Arnulf, who succeeded as King of the Germans in 887, and the destruction of Prüm Abbey, which occurred in 882.
Under the name the Monk of Saint Gall, Notker the Stammerer likely penned The Life of Charlemagne.
