CARLOMAN (828-88o)

This article appears in Volume V05, Page 343 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: CAR-CAU
CARLOMAN (828-88o) , king of Bavaria and Italy, was the eldest son of Louis the German, king of the
East
 
Franks
 . In 856 he undertook the defence of the eastern frontier of Bavaria against the Bohemians and Moravians, and won considerable fame in various campaigns.. He married a daughter of Ernest,
count
  of the Bohemian mark, and in conjunction with his father-in-law resisted the authority of his father in 861. For some years he alternated between rebellion and submission to his father, but in 865 an arrangement was made by which he became possessed of Bavaria and Carinthia as his expectant share of the kingdom of Louis. During the troubles between Louis and his two younger sons Carloman remained faithful to his father, and carried on the war with the Moravians so successfully that in 87o their territory was completely under the power of the
Franks
 ; and when peace was made at
Forchheim
  in 874, they recognized the Frankish supremacy. In 875 the emperor Louis II. died, having named his
cousin
  Carloman as his successor in Italy. Carloman crossed the Alps to claim his
inheritance
 , but was cajoled into returning by the king of the West Franks, Charles the Bald. In 876, on his father's death, Carloman became actually king of Bavaria, and after a short campaign against the Moravians he went again to Italy in 877 and was crowned king of the Lombards at Pavia; but his negotiations with
Pope
  John VIII. for the imperial crown were fruitless, and personal illness added to the outbreak of an epidemic in his army compelled him to return to Bavaria. Stricken with paralysis, Carloman was unable to prevent his brother Louis from seizing Bavaria; so making a virtue of necessity, he bequeathed the whole of his lands to Louis. He died on the 22nd of September 88o at bttingen, where he was buried, leaving an illegitimate son, afterwards the emperor Arnulf.
