Summary:

Chapter 1 is introductory; with no claim to originality, it analyzes the main features of the political and intellectual setting of the ninth century in Carolingian Francia. Chapter 2 explains the origin and traces the main lines of the controversy on the Trinity. Chapter 3 analyzes the relevant writings of Gottschalk. Chapters 4 to 6 analyze the refutation of Gottschalk by Hincmar in his major work, ʼDe una et non trina deitate. Chapter 7 acts as a conclusion, as it draws some theological lessons for today and tomorrow from what was discussed in the ninth century.
