Book Description
Excerpt from Analysis of the History of Germany: With Brief Extracts From Standard Authorities; Continued Down to the Present Time At length the German branch of the family of Charlemagne became extinct, and his feeble descendants who reigned in France had sunk into such contempt that the Germans, without looking towards them, exercised the right inherent in a free people, and in a general assembly of the nation elected Conrad}s Count of Franconia, emperor. After him Henry of Saxony, and his descendants, the three Othos, were placed, in succession, on the im perial throne by the suffrages of their countrymen. The extensive terri tories of the Saxon Emperors, their eminent abilities and enterprising genius, not only added new vigour to the imperial dignity, but raised it to higher power and pre eminence. Otho the Great marched at the head of a numerous army into Italy, and, after the example of Charlemagne, gave law to that country. Every power there recognised his authority. He created popes, and deposed them, by his sovereign mandate. He annexed the kingdom of Italy to the German Empire. Elated with his success, he assumed the title of Caesar Augustus. A prince, born in the heart of Germany, pretended to be the successor of the emperors of ancient Rome, and claimed a right to tim same power and prerogative. But while the Emperors, by means of these new titles and new dominions, gradually acquired additional authority and splendour, the nobility of Ger many had gone on at the same time extending their privileges and jurisdiction.
