Course Description: Fulbert of Chartres, a cleric of somewhat obscure origin, became master of Chartres’s cathedral school around the end of the first millennium and was eventually named bishop of the diocese in 1006. From his writings we see a man of remarkable breadth of knowledge and active involvement in the world of his time, a man who was not perfect but possessed a deep piety and a robust commitment to teaching others. In this course we will try to get a closer look at this lesser-known figure and discover a window into the world of medieval France at the turn of the millennium.
