Karl IV, the "greatest Roman-German emperor of the late Middle Ages" (Peter Moraw), was an exceptional ruler in every respect. His most famous achievement to this day is the adoption of the Golden Bull, the "constitution" of the Holy Roman Empire. Charles' unusually long reign coincided with the crisis of the 14th century, marked by the Hundred Years' War, the Great Plague and the Western Schism.
Raised in Paris, Charles was highly intelligent, unusually educated and polyglot (he spoke five languages). He wrote the only autobiography of a medieval ruler; Charles University, which he founded, is the oldest university in Central Europe. And no medieval ruler has been portrayed so often. Pierre Monnet writes the first modern biography of the great late medieval emperor in over 30 years. This specialist on the late Middle Ages combines the greatest erudition with French elegant style.
