Caroline Books, the. A treatise compiled
c.790–2, which purports to be the work of
Charlemagne. It attacks the Iconoclastic Council of 754 (for prohibiting images altogether) and
Nicaea II of 787 (for allowing excessive reverence to be paid to them). It was long attributed to
Alcuin but is probably by
Theodulf of Orléans, though Alcuin may have written a small part.
