	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Fulbert of Chartres
		Fulbert was also chancellor of the church of Chartres and treasurer of St. Hilary's at Poitiers.
		In 1007 Fulbert succeeded the deceased Rudolph as Bishop of Chartres and was consecrated by his metropolitan, Archbishop Leutheric of Sens.
		Though Fulbert was neither abbot nor monk, as has been wrongly asserted by some historians, still he stood in friendly relation with Odilo of Cluny, Richard of St. Vannes, Abbo of Fleury, and other monastic celebrities of his times.

		His scholarly activities attracted a circle of disciples, sometimes termed a college although it was probably completely informal; St. Fulbert himself was hailed as the "Gallic Socrates".
		The last decade of St. Fulbert's life was devoted mainly to an endless round of fund-raising; the ancient cathedral of Chartres was completely destroyed by fire on 1020 September 7, and the bishop was determined to see it rebuilt.
