Robertines

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robertiner ( French les Robertiens ) is the modern name for a Franconian aristocratic family, also known as "Rupertiner" and attested since the beginning of the 7th century , or for the West Franconian branch of this family from the middle of the 9th century played an important role in western France and from which the French royal house of the Capetians emerged .

history

Illuminated family tree of the Robertines, 14th century, Besançon City Library

The Robertines were originally named after Count Robert the Brave (middle of the 9th century), who was still considered the ancestor of the family in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The secured family line begins with Robert I , who was count in the Worms and Upper Rhinegau around the middle of the 8th century . It was only Karl Glöckner who showed in an article published in 1937 that Robert came from the Rhineland-Franconian family of the Rupertines and that his ancestry can thus be traced back to the 7th century. The term "Rupertiner" refers to the lead name Rupert , also Chrodobertus or Robert , which runs through the family tree. Usually only the family branch of the Rupertines, descended from Robert the Brave, is referred to as "Robertiner".

Hugo Capet , who founded the French royal dynasty of the Capetians , came from the Robertin family . Since the later French royal families ( House of Valois , House of Bourbon ) descended from Hugo Capet in an uninterrupted male line, the whole "House of France" ( Maison de France ) is a branch of the Robertin family. The older Babenbergs are a branch of the Robertians .

The most famous members of the family are:

  1. Robert the Brave , Count of Tours and Count of Angers
  2. Odo of Paris , King of the West of France
  3. Robert I , King of the West of France
  4. Hugo the Great , Duke of the Franks ( dux Francorum ), Duke of Burgundy and Duke of Aquitaine
  5. Hugo Capet , King of France

  6. compare the Landrada / Sigramnus marriage two generations earlier. The death of the son Chrodegang in 766 does not fit into the following generation (his cousins ​​died in 795 or 807 and Chrodegang was already active as a founder of Gorze in 748), rather into the generation of Dux Robert in Haspengau (757 attested, † before 764). The Landrada / Sigram / Chrodegang group was left standing here with respect for literature.
  7.

MedLands Carolingian Nobility Chapter 1.O Family of Adelramn Comte (de Troyes) sees Aleram as the son of Aleran (Barcelona) († 852) and husband of a member of the Nebelung family, but not as the Count of Troyes.
