| Abstract | |
This research is a bibliographic review of the Libri Carolini, treatise written during the VIIIth century under Charlemagnes name as an answer to the II council of Nicaea, 787, where the image-worship was reestablished in the East. The Libri Carolini are a work in which the Carolingians deny the decision taken on the Eastern council, that had the support of the pope, Hadrian I. This study can only be done if we consider the question about images that took place between the Latin world and Byzantium during the VII and IXth centuries, as well as the relations between the three main powers involved in this matter, Carolingians, the Eastern empire and Rome. This research had the will to observe, after the reading of other studies, how images were understood between East and West, and how they were in the center of theological and political matters.
