The review article discusses the contents of the collection of articles Religious Franks. Religion and Power in the Frankish Kingdoms: Studies in honour of Mayke de Jong / Meens, R.; van Espelo, D.; van Rhijn, C. (Eds.). Manchester: Manchester University Press, 2016. In it the new approaches to the history of the Frankish Kingdom during the rule of the Carolingians are shown. In particular, the review highlights the common points in all articles, which suggest that the structures of power and the images of power were quite unstable in the Carolingian period and that they formed dynamically.
