	Cluny the Scourge - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cluny is plagued in his dreams by the guardian spirit of Redwall, Martin the Warrior (fictional character).
		Cluny is portrayed as a good general and a fine tactician and is one of the only vermin invaders ever to make it into the Great Hall of the Abbey, but he is still driven out by the Redwallers in the end.
		Cluny was a savage and skilled fighter (he was said to have tamed a mighty beast known as a horse) and even Matthias the Warrior could not best him physically.

	Cluniac Order
		Cluny reached new heights of power and influence during Peter's abbacy, as its brethren became bishops, legates, and cardinals throughout France and the Holy Roman Empire [10].

		Cluny's influence upon the English Church, discussed previously, has altered the monastic culture of many Benedictine communities, encouraging the latter to extend and adorn their liturgical ceremonies at the expense of physical work.

	The Spanish Journey of Abbot Ponce of Cluny
		Since Ponce was elected abbot of Cluny in 1109, and since he presumably reached Abbeville in the winter of 1111, it seems to follow that his Spanish [312] journey occurred in 1110 or 1111, and was directed towards visitation of Cluny's major trans-Pyrenean subject-houses.
		Leon-Castile, and especially Leon, was a state with which, under Ferdinand I, Alfonso VI and Urraca, Cluny had strong personal and political ties; and on two previous occasions the abbot of Cluny had been called upon to settle dynastic disputes.
		This is not the place to discuss the precise aims of papal policy as regards the settlement of the war in Leon and Castile, or the way in which the abbot- legate of 1113 carried out his diplomatic mission.
