The following information was submitted by Michael Allchin of Wiltshire It's interesting to read your understanding of some of the ancient history of the clan. It's encouraging that we also have had this idea of the name stemming from a d'Alquin as one of our family myths - without, it has to be said, any evidence of it being true! Here are a few more points which we have dredged up - again, mostly anecdotal. The link before the 11th century is supposed to find its way as far as a monk by the name of Alcuin, who started his rise to fame in York some time in the 8th century, in the Bede school of learning. It was some rise, too - he eventually held the post of Clerical Advisor to Charlemagne, emperor of the Holy Roman Empire: considering the importance of religious guidance to such a figure at such a time, this must have been a rather major post. He was given abbeys to run at Troyes and then Tours, at which he established important centres and traditions of (mainly theological) learning. There is now a college in his honour at York University

In 778 he accepted an invitation from Charlemagne to a meeting of the leading scholars at Aachen, where he was made head of Charlemagne's Palace School. Alcuin and the others emphasized the study of scriptures and philosophical texts in their original languages, as opposed to Latin translations which had been much more common. Alcuin was also responsible for the development of Carolingian minuscule, a form of writing which became common. It was much easier to read than the older, unspaced capital script which had been in use.

Two early and famous leaders were Charles Martel (714 - 741) and Pepin the Short (741 - 751). Martel was made famous for defeating the Muslim armies at Tours in 732. The Carolingian rulers maintained control with a powerful army made up of most of the free men living in their lands. Carolingian rulers were responsible for the Carolingian Renaissance. This development of learning and art helped preserve Western civilization of the past for the benefit of the future. Charlemagne had a great fondness for education and encouraged the clergy to preserve and develop it. Of particular help were the Irish monks whom Charlemagne invited to teach in his realm - Ireland had not suffered the material and intellectual devestation which afflicted the rest of Western Europe. During this renaissance Alcuin of York (735 - 804) was made head of a school of monks and teachers.

27. University Of York Press Release: York's Rich Anglo-Saxon Heritage Celebrated In One of York's most illustrious sons, alcuin of york, will be commemorated in a newseries of annual lectures beginning on 31 October in St William's College. http://www1.york.ac.uk/admin/presspr/alcuin.htm

23 October 1997 York's rich Anglo-Saxon heritage celebrated in new lecture on Alcuin One of York's most illustrious sons, Alcuin of York, will be commemorated in a new series of annual lectures beginning on 31 October in St William's College. The lecture is a partnership between the University's Centre for Medieval Studies and the Dean and Chapter of York Minster. Alcuin was an early medieval scholar, brought up and educated in the cathedral community of York. In 767 he became master of the cathedral school where he had a seminal influence on the young clerks, who included future archbishops. His fame spread and the Emperor Charlemagne invited him to join his court. Alcuin went on to fashion Charlemagne's educational and religious policy which had long-lasting effects on European culture. "Alcuin was one of the most learned and influential figures of the Middle Ages," says Dr Catherine Cubitt of the Centre for Medieval Studies. "He lived in York when it was a leading political and commercial capital, and its cathedral school was a European centre of scholarship. The vitality and prosperity of this Anglo-Saxon age in York is often overlooked by popular concentration on the Vikings. We aim to rejuvenate interest in York's earlier pre-eminence by establishing this lecture." The first York Alcuin Lecture will be given by Professor Donald Bullough, Emeritus Professor at the University of St Andrews, and the foremost scholar of Alcuin studies. His biography of Alcuin is shortly to be published by Oxford University Press. The lecture is at 7.30 in the McLagin Hall, St William's College on Friday 31 October, and is open to all.

Charles convinced him to share his talents with his empire and bestowed on him the abbeys of Ferrières and St. Loup. Steeped in the pedagogical tradition of Bede, Alcuin stirred the Franks to acquire the little learning they were to possess in the so called "Dark Ages."
