 1920 PARIS AND CHARTRE8, 1136-1146 339 studied rhetoric under Master Theodoric.^ He does not say where this was or when ; but it was no doubt at Paris and before 1141. In 11 48 Theodoric attended the council of Rheims as a witness on behalf of Gilbert of La Porree, the old chancellor of Chartres. In the following year, when Archbishop Auberon of Treves went to attend the diet held by Conrad III at Frankfort on 15 August 1149, he took with him Master Jarland of Besan9on and Master Theodoric of Chartres : ' magistrura quoque larlandum Bisin- tinum et magistrum Teodericum Carnotensem. . . secum in sua ducens navali camerata, in illorum disputatione. . . valde delectatus est.' ^ Theodoric is here definitely Carnotensis, and we need not doubt that he is the chancellor and archdeacon of the church of Chartres who was commemorated under 5 November.^ 2. Reserving the two Roberts, Manerius, and Bernard, we may pass over the remaining names briefly. Of the praesul Pictaviensis Gilbert of La Porree, we have already spoken. Concerning the parvi pontis incola, the Englishman Adam of the Petit Pont, it need only be added that he was made bishop of St. Asaph in 1175. Lumbardus is Peter, the famous author of the Sentences, who became bishop of Paris in 1158-9. Ivo, like Bernard and Theodoric, was a Breton. He is the Master Ivo of Chartres who in 1148 attended the council of Rheims as a witness for his teacher Gilbert of La Porree.* From charters assigned to the years 1155-9 we learn that he was then dean of Chartres ; ^ his obituary describes him as ' vir multa scientia et honestate praeditus '.® Peter Helias we have found as one of John of Salisbury's teachers ; John mentions him again in a letter written in 1166.' Abailard needs no note. Reynold, the jealous monk, is unidentified : Prantl ® ingeniously suggested that he was the opponent of sound methods of study whom John of Salisbury disguises under the name of Gornificius. Bartholomew was a Breton who was made bishop of Exeter in 1162 ; he is said to have been distinguished as a learned writer. Walter Map, writing between 1181 and 1192-3, calls him 'vir senex et facundus '.^ 3. It is not easy to say with confidence whether Rohertus theologus and Robertus Amiclas are Robert of Melun and Robert xxvi, in Monum. Germ. Hist. viii. 257. For the date see W.
