See also:QUIERZY [KIERSY], See also:CAPITULARY OF , a capitulary of the See also:emperor See also:Charles the Bald, comprising a See also:series of See also:measures for safeguarding the See also:administration of his See also:realm during his second See also:Italian expedition, as well as directions for his son See also:- LOUIS
- LOUIS (804–876)
- LOUIS (893–911)
- LOUIS, JOSEPH DOMINIQUE, BARON (1755-1837)
- LOUIS, or LEWIS (from the Frankish Chlodowich, Chlodwig, Latinized as Chlodowius, Lodhuwicus, Lodhuvicus, whence-in the Strassburg oath of 842-0. Fr. Lodhuwigs, then Chlovis, Loys and later Louis, whence Span. Luiz and—through the Angevin kings—Hungarian
Louis the Stammerer, who was entrusted with the See also:government during his See also:father's See also:absence. It was promulgated on the 14th of See also:June 877 at Quierzy-sur-See also:Oise in See also:France (dep. of See also:Aisne), the site of a Carolingian royal palatium, before a See also:great See also:con-course of lords. In this document Charles takes elaborate precautions against Louis, whom he had every See also:reason to
distrust. He forbids him to sojourn in certain palaces and in certain forests, and compels him to swear not to despoil his stepmother Richilde of her allodial lands and benefices. At the same See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)
- TIME, MEASUREMENT OF
- TIME, STANDARD
time Charles refuses to allow Louis to nominate to the countships See also:left vacant in the emperor's absence. In principle the honores (benefices) and the See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office of a deceased See also:count must be given to his son, who would be placed See also:pro-visionally in See also:possession by Louis; the definitive See also:investiture, however, could be conferred only by Charles. The capitulary thus served as a See also:guarantee to the See also:aristocracy that the See also:general usage would be followed in the existing circumstances, and also as a means of reassuring the See also:counts who had accompanied
the emperor into See also:Italy as to the See also:fate of their benefices. It cannot, however, be regarded as introducing a new principle, and the old See also:opinion that the capitulary of Quierzy was a legislative See also:text establishing the hereditary See also:system of fiefs has been proved to be untenable. A former capitulary of Charles the Bald was promulgated at Quierzy on the 14th of See also:February 857, and aimed especially at the repression of See also:brigandage.
