Almost all of Alcuin's work writings date from the period of his retirement between 796 and 804, and include a number of important exegetical and didactic treatises. He also left behind an important series of letters, collected after his death, that are today regarded as one of the most important sources for early medieval continental history.

He also left behind an important series of letters, collected after his death, that are today regarded as one of the most important sources for early medieval continental history.
