Summary "Robert Ier et Raoul de Bourgogne, rois de France (923-936)" by Philippe Lauer is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the reigns of Robert I and Raoul of Burgundy, exploring the political dynamics and struggles of France during the Carolingian era. Lauer aims to fill historical gaps left by previous works regarding key figures and events, particularly emphasizing the political maneuvering and territorial disputes of the time. The opening of the work provides a detailed preface and introductory comments on the context surrounding Robert and Raoul's reigns, particularly the social and political fragmentation of France after the Carolingian dynasty's decline. Lauer discusses Robert's initial loyalty to King Charles the Simple and his subsequent rise to power. He also introduces Raoul, highlighting his lineage and early political interactions. The chapter sets the stage for understanding the complexities of political alliances, conflicts with the Normans, and the eventual election of Raoul as king. Overall, this beginning establishes a richly layered historical narrative that frames the key events and characters critical to understanding this tumultuous period in French history.
