The Carmen de conversione Saxonum—or in English, Poem Concerning the Conversion of the Saxons—is a Latin poem celebrating the conversion of the Saxons to Christianity in 777. It was written by a poet of the Frankish Kingdom for or shortly after the assembly held by Charlemagne at Paderborn in Saxony in that year. This marked the end of the first phase of the Saxon Wars and was believed at the time, as shown by the Carmen and other contemporary sources, to mark the full acceptance by the Saxons of their defeat and conversion. The following year, however, the Saxons rebelled and the wars continued for several decades.

has abstract	The Carmen de conversione Saxonum—or in English, Poem Concerning the Conversion of the Saxons—is a Latin poem celebrating the conversion of the Saxons to Christianity in 777. It was written by a poet of the Frankish Kingdom for or shortly after the assembly held by Charlemagne at Paderborn in Saxony in that year. This marked the end of the first phase of the Saxon Wars and was believed at the time, as shown by the Carmen and other contemporary sources, to mark the full acceptance by the Saxons of their defeat and conversion. The following year, however, the Saxons rebelled and the wars continued for several decades. The Carmen (or De conversione Saxonum) is strictly anonymous, but modern scholars have proposed several attributions. Frobenius Forster thought it was the work of Alcuin. Karl Hauck argued that it was written by Lullus, an attribution accepted by Donald Bullough and James Palmer. Dieter Schaller argues for Paulinus of Aquileia on the basis of internal linguistic evidence and is followed by Robert Flierman. The traditional attribution is to Angilbert, a confidante of the king, as in Ernst Dümmler's edition. More recently, it has been argued by Susan Rabe and accepted by Bernard Bachrach. The Carmen consists of 75 hexameters divided into three sections. It is a "virtual panegyric" of Charlemagne. Over half of the poem is a celebration of his initiatives, especially his military victories. Charlemagne and God are the only protagonists in its account. Some of its imagery is derived from Virgil's Aeneid, as when Hell is described as the "sand of Cocytus" or "jaws of Celydrus", but mostly from the Bible. There are also allusions to Eclogue 4 and possible borrowings from Aldhelm. The Carmen had little literary impact, since its celebratory tone was overtaken by events with a year. The only later medieval author to evince any awareness of it is Hrotsvith of Gandersheim. It now survives in a single 9th-century manuscript, number 308 (formerly 2883) in the library of the Schönborn family's Weissenstein Castle in Pommersfelden. The first edition, published in 1777 by Forster, was based on a different manuscript now lost. Rabe has translated the poem into English. (en)
