Abstract
[EN] Contrary to Lombard and Carolingian Italy, there was no Frankish aristocracy in Rome itself. This paper discusses the relations between the Roman aristocracies and the emperor, which need to be seen within the context of the history between the elites of the city and the papacy after the end of Byzantine rule in Rome. Such relations can explain the tensions between the aristocracies and the papacy, which played into the hands of Lothar as he himself tried to support the pro-Frankish elites whenever possible, to provide a counterweight to papal control.
