medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Today (29. April) is the feast day of:
>
> Hugh of Cluny (d. 1109) Hugh was the eldest son of
> the count of Semur, but
> disavowed his heritage to become a monk at Cluny.
>
> Robert of Molesme (d. 1110) Robert, the founder of
> Citeaux,
This is the first time I take note of this coincidence
of feasts of the great abbots of Cluny and Citeaux.
Did they actually die on the same date, one year
apart?
Or was one or the other date "arranged" in later years
for some reason or other?
