Everything about Amalarius Of Trier totally explained
Amalhar or
Amalarius Fortunatus (c.775 – c.850) was the third
Archbishop of Trier from 809 until 814.
Amalhar was a pupil of
Alcuin of York. In 809,
Charlemagne appointed him to the see of Trier and in 813 he was sent as the chief Frankish ambassador to the court of
Michael I Rhangabes at
Constantinople. On Charlemagne's death in 814, Amalhar resigned his see. Nevertheless he remained a partisan of
Louis the Pious throughout the tumult of his reign.
In 831, Amalhar travelled to
Rome to meet
Pope Gregory IV and arrange a new German liturgy. In 835, he replaced
Agobard at the
Synod of Diedenhofen and implemented liturgical reforms. In 838, on the accusation of heresy, the
Synod of Quierzy banned some of his works. He died around ten years later at
Metz.
His writings form a good portion of our current documentation of the ninth century liturgies of the Western Church.
