He was a staunch supporter of See also:Charlemagne's principles of See also:government and educational reforms; he established See also:schools, and by his own See also:literary achievements showed himself a worthy member of the learned circle which graced the Carolingian court. He was likewise a See also:good churchman and an able See also:administrator of his See also:diocese; he encouraged the See also:reformation of the See also:clergy and the monasteries. In 798 he was appointed missis dominicus, and two years later performed so See also:great services for See also:Leo III. as See also:judge in the cause between the See also:pope and his enemies, that he returned from See also:Rome with the See also:pallium.

Louis the See also:Fair. Later, however, he was accused of having taken See also:part in the See also:conspiracy of See also:Bernard of See also:Italy, and in 818 was deposed from all his dignities and imprisoned in a monastery at See also:Angers. Theodulf asserted his innocence to the end, and no See also:- PROOF (in M. Eng. preove, proeve, preve, &°c., from O. Fr . prueve, proeve, &c., mod. preuve, Late. Lat. proba, probate, to prove, to test the goodness of anything, probus, good)
proof of his See also:guilt has come down to us; in fact, from what we know of the bishop's See also:life and See also:political principles we should presuppose his innocence. He died in See also:prison, probably from See also:poison, in 821.
Theodulf was called See also:Pindar in the See also:palace school of Charlemagne. Fond of Latin literature, whether See also:Christian or See also:pagan, and a friend of the arts, he was himself one of the best writers of the See also:period. His See also:prose See also:works include sermons, See also:treatises on vices and on See also:baptism, a See also:penitential, capitularies and exhortations to bishops, priests and
See also:judges. His poems are his best See also:work, and afford us a vivid picture of the times.
