 | | Confessor, Bishop of Chartres, canonist, born Beauvais, France, c.1040; died 1116. |
 | | Having studied philosophy at Paris, and theology at the Abbey of Bec in Normandy, he was made provost of the canons of Saint Quentin at Beauvais, 1080. |
 | | His works are divided into three categories: canonical writings like the "Decretum," the "Panormia," composed before 1096, and the "Prologus"; letters on religious and political questions of the day (he took a moderate position in the investiture struggle); and sermons which reveal his piety and science. |
