Archbishop of Lyons, France, and theologian. After serving as the arch-chaplain to the royal court of the Carolingian ruler Charles the Bald, he was named archbishop of Lyons in 852. During his time as archbishop, he became involved in the controversy surrounding the theologian Gottschalk of Fulda. While he was opposed to Gottschalk's teachings and ideas on predestination, he was firmly against the harsh treatment of the theologian as a result of his incarceration at the hands of Hincmar of Reims.
