	Vincent of Beauvais - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Dominican friar Vincent of Beauvais (Vincentius Bellovacensis) (ca 1190 - 1264?) wrote the main encyclopedia that was used in the Middle Ages.

		Other works of Vincent of Beauvais are: De eruditione filiorum regalium ('On the education of princes') and a "Tractatus consolatorius de morte amici" ('Consolation upon the death of a friend'), addressed to Louis on the death of one of his sons in 1260.
