Desiderata was one of four daughters of Desiderius, king of the Lombards, and his queen, Ansa. She was married to Charlemagne, king of the Franks, in 770, probably to form a bond between the otherwise enemy states of Francia and Lombardy. The marriage was annulled in 771 and this hurt relations with Lombardy, presaging the war of 774. She had no children and her ultimate fate is unknown.

  • Desiderata was one of four daughters of Desiderius, king of the Lombards, and his queen, Ansa. She was married to Charlemagne, king of the Franks, in 770, probably to form a bond between the otherwise enemy states of Francia and Lombardy. The marriage was annulled in 771 and this hurt relations with Lombardy, presaging the war of 774. She had no children and her ultimate fate is unknown. Although she is commonly referred to by the name Desiderata, it is now theorised that the name derives from an editorial error in a 19th century copy of the Monumenta Germaniae Historica which capitalised the D in desideriata filiam (Latin for desired daughter). Even this error was sometimes compounded by a back formation to Desideria, a more probable first name (the feminine form of Desiderius, her father's name), or translated (as into French, Désirée). The noted Carolingian historian, Janet Nelson, hypothesised in the 1998 work After Rome's Fall that Desiderius' daughter was in fact named Gerperga. The reasoning used by Nelson hinges on the confusion that many contemporaries apparently had between her and Gerberga, the Frankish wife of Carloman who was brother of Charlemagne and his co-ruler from 768 to 771. Even Pope Stephen III seems to confuse the two and the chroniclers and annalists seem to believe that Gerberga fled, when her husband died, to the court of her father (she fled to Desiderius, who was definitely not her father). What is definite is that Desiderius and Ansa had three other daughters named Anselperga, Adelperga, and Liutperga. The commonality in the names of their daughters is the ending "-perga". Based on this, the author believes the confusion was caused because the two queens (wives of the two brothers Charles and Carloman) had the same name, namely Gerberga or Gerperga, which are respectively the Frankish and Lombard versions of the modern French name Gerberge.
  • Gerperga ist vermutlich der wahre Name der ersten Frau von Karl, dem Großen. Sie war eine Tochter des Langobardenkönigs Desiderius und seiner Frau Ansa. Sie wird traditionell meist Desiderata oder Desiderada genannt, obwohl ihr Name in keiner Quelle vermerkt ist.
  • Désirée de Lombardie, dite aussi Desiderada, était une princesse du royaume lombard d'Italie de la seconde moitié du VIII siècle. Fille de Desiderius/Daufer, dernier roi des Lombards, et Ansia, elle fut la première épouse officielle de Charlemagne. Répudiée par Charlemagne, roi des Francs, avant 771 pour cause de stérilité (officiellement).
  • Gerperga volt valószínűleg Desiderius lombard király és felesége, Ansa négy lányának egyike. 768-ban feleségül ment Nagy Károlyhoz, a frankok királyához, nem sokkal annak válása után, valószínűleg azért hogy megerősítsék a kapcsolatot a Frank Birodalom és Lombardia között. Házasságukat 771-ben erősítették meg. Ám ez az erős kapcsolat Lombardiával előre vetítette a 774-es háborút. Gerpergának nem született gyermeke és további sorsa ismeretlen.
  • Le fonti altomedievali non ci hanno trasmesso il vero nome di questa figlia del re longobardo, condannandola a una damnatio memoriae. Per poterla indicare, gli storici utilizzano il nome Desiderata, oppure Berterada, fornitoci da Andrea da Bergamo (che scrisse alla fine del IX secolo e che non sempre è attendibile come fonte). Il nome Ermengarda è invece frutto dell'inventiva di Alessandro Manzoni. Ermengarda venne data in moglie al figlio di Pipino il Breve, Carlo che più avanti sarà detto Magno, per rinsaldare l'alleanza tra Franchi e Longobardi. Tuttavia il matrimonio ebbe breve durata. L'Italia era ormai ambita da entrambe le potenze e nel frattempo Carlo nel 771 alla morte del fratello Carlomanno era diventato unico re franco. Quasi contemporaneamente ripudiò Ermengarda che si rifugiò a Pavia in un convento. Desiderio allora per far riconoscere i diritti della figlia da papa Adriano I invase i territori pontifici ma la sua azione fu frenata da Carlo Magno che nel 774 conquistò Pavia e rinchiuse Desiderio in un monastero. A Ermengarda Alessandro Manzoni dedicò uno tra i più celebri cori dell'Adelchi, la tragedia che egli scrisse per raccontare la drammatica guerra condotta contro i Longobardi dal re franco Carlo Magno tra il 772 e il 774.
  • Desiderata van Lombardije (750-) was een dochter van Diederik van Lombardije en van Ansa. Zij huwde in 768 met Karel de Grote, maar werd al spoedig verstoten. Dit huwelijk was het enige dat in die periode gesloten werd met een buitenlandse partner.
  • Gerperga - córka króla Longobardów Dezyderiusza i jego żony Ansy. W 768 r. poślubiła Karola Wielkiego związek ten miał na celu stworzyć sojusz dwóch wrogich do tej pory królestw (Gerperga była poprzednio prawdopodobnie żoną Karlomana - brata Karola). Małżeństwo zostało anulowane w 771 r. na skutek wybuchu konfliktu Dezyderiusza z papiestwem. Jej dalsze losy są nieznane. Jest ona czasami znana pod imieniem Dezyderaty (fr. Désirée de Lombardie). Wiąże się to z pomyłką edycyjną w XIX wieku, ostatnio sprostowanej przez Archibalda C. Murraya i Waltera A. Goffarta.
  • Desiderata foi uma princesa do reino da Lombardia, tendo sido a segunda esposa de Carlos Magno com quem casou em 768 . Foi filha de Desidério, o último rei dos Lombardos.
