 The Catholic Encyclopedia - Sigebert of Gembloux
While at Metz he wrote the biographies of Bishop Theodoric I of Metz (964-85), of King Sigebert III, founder of the monastery of St. Martin at Metz, and also a long poem on the martyrdom of St. Lucia, whose relics were venerated at the Abbey of St. Vincent.
Of the three treatises which he contributed to the contest, one is lost; this was an answer to the letter of Gregory VII, written in 1081 to Bishop Hermann of Metz, in which Gregory asserted that the popes have the right to excommunicate kings and to release subjects from the oath of loyalty.
In the second treatise Sigebert defended the masses of married priests, the hearing of which had been forbidden by the pope in 1074.

Sigeberts most important work is a Chronographia, or universal chronicle, according to Molinier the best work of its kind, although it contains many errors and but little original information.
The chronicle was very popular during the later middle ages; it was used by many writers and found numerous continuators.
Other works by Sigebert are a history of the early abbots of Gembloux to 1048 (Gesta abbatum Gemblacensium) and a life of the Frankish king Sigebert III.

 Societas Christiana: Sigebert of Gembloux: Apologia Against Those Who Decry the Masses of Married Priests   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
[2] Note Sigebert’s use of the common anti-Gregorian accusation that the Gregorians were introducing manifest novelties into the Church contrary to ancient tradition—but especially in the case of this one, the forbidding of marriage, contrary to Divine Scripture.
[3] Sigebert is here probably in part referring to the tenet of the Gregorian hierocratic theory which allowed the Church to depose “heretical” secular rulers from their offices, thus fomenting revolt against them by their (often) discontent people.
If the reader is interested in more Sigebert of Gembloux, I recommend his Letter Against Pope Paschal II, written after the Investiture Contest had been decisively settled in the papacy's favor.
