Berengars belief was not shaken by their arguments and exhortations, and hearing that Lanfranc, the most celebrated theologian of that age, strongly approved the doctrine of Paschasius and condemned that of Scotus (really Ratramnus), he wrote to him a letter expressing his surprise and urging him to reconsider the question.

Berengar of Tours (born c.999 - died January 6, 1088) was an 11th century Christian theologian in France who disputed with the Church leadership over the doctrine of transubstantiation in the Eucharist.
Probably in the early part of 1050, Berengar addressed a letter to Lanfranc, then prior of Bec, in which he expressed his regret that Lanfranc adhered to the eucharistic teaching of Paschasius and considered the treatise of Ratramnus on the subject (which Berengar supposed to have been written by Johannes Scotus Erigena) to be heretical.
Under these circumstances Berengar decided to concede as much as he could, and the French bishops showed that they wished a speedy settlement of the controversy, when the Synod of Tours declared itself satisfied by Berengar's written declaration that the bread and wine after consecration were the Body and Blood of Christ.
