Question

How was Charlemagne’s attitude toward his children’s education similar to St. Benedict’s attitude toward monks in the Catholic Church?

Answer 1

Answer:

Charlemagne’s attitude toward the children of his school was similar to St. Benedict’s attitude towards the monks in the Catholic Church in a way. Charlemagne’s school was open to both, boys and girls. He taught them all without any differentiation until a certain age. After that age, the boys were taught the art of horsemanship, and the girls went to learn to thread. The monks and Charlemagne’s students were made to follow their masters.
