| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study was a general analysis of documents, especially letters and letter-form documents of the Carolingian Age from the perspective of political communication. It tried to show how political order could be created, kept or restored in the Carolingian world through various political networks made and kept by epistolary communication. Sources were examined from such various aspects as the process of document-issuing, types of documents, contexts of their use and their function, their textual (e.g. formulae) and physical features, the usage of titles and form of address etc. The results shows how letters and letter-form documents could (re)build and maintain a relationship between a issuer/sender and a recipient and suggests, furthermore, that those documents could establish or enhance broader communication including listeners of the documents read out publicly.
