The treatment of Robert by the English was put forward by William the Conqueror as a pretext for invading England.

 EBK: Robert of Jumieres, Archbishop of Canterbury   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-16)
By birth a Norman, Robert was appointed as Abbot of Jumieges in 1037.
The resentment aroused by this was increased by the use which Robert made of his position to inflame the mind of the King against Earl Godwin of Wessex and to promote the interests of foreigners who filled many offices in Church and State.
Godwin, however, proved in the end, too strong for Robert, who was obliged to leave the country in 1052 and died at Jumieges in 1070.

In 1043 he was consecrated bishop of Elmham and in 1047 was translated to Winchester; he supported Earl Godwin of Wessex in his quarrel with Edward the Confessor, and in 1052 arranged the peace between the earl and the king.
In this year the archbishop of Canterbury, Robert of Jumieges, having been outlawed and driven from England, Stigand was appointed to the archbishopric; but, regarding Robert as the rightful archbishop, Pope Leo IX and his two successors refused to recognize him.
In 1058, however, Benedict X gave him the pall, but this pope was deposed in the following year.

 Missal of Robert of Jumieges, 1870252098, £55.00/$95.00, 440pp, 1994
The `Missal of Robert of Jumièges' is one of the most important, and also most beautifully written and decorated, service books which have survived from the late Anglo-Saxon period.
Probably written at Canterbury in the early years of the eleventh century, it eventually came into the possession of Robert, bishop of London (1044-51), who gave it to the abbey of Jumièges in France, where it remained until 1791.
From a liturgical point of view, the manuscript is notable for the large number of masses commemorating not only native English, but also continental, and particularly Flemish, saints culted in late Anglo-Saxon England; the book is thus an important witness to the cultural links between England and the Continent at that time.

In 1052, Godwin and his sons returned and demonstrated their power by forcing Edward to accept Stigand as archbishop of Canterbury instead of Robert.

How does she rate, for instance, Aelfheah, Aelfric, Aethelheard, Aethelnoth, Athelm, Berhtwald, Bregowine, Byrthelm, Ceolnoth, Cuthbert, Deusdedit, Honorious, Jaenberht, Justus, Lanfranc, Laurentius, Oda, Plegmund, Robert of Jumièges, Sigeric, Stigand, Tatwine, Theodore and Wulfred, to take only some of the earliest incumbents?
The great historian Stenton says of Deusdedit: "His one recorded act is the consecration of a bishop of Rochester." Consecrating bishops of Rochester, even in that turbulent era, would account for only a modest slice of any archbishop's time.
Robert of Jumièges, I see, was driven right out of England by a popular uprising in 1052, a fate which has yet to befall George Carey, though perhaps the forces of Mervyism are working towards it.
