medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
We have him in the Oxford Companion to the Year--d. c.684, son of Philibald,
bishop of Aire. He founded the monastery of Jumièges c.654, then of Noirmoutier
in 676. He is venerated as apostle and patron of the Vendée.
I am reminded of Philibert every year about this time when the squirrels start
raiding our hazel tree--this is the origin of the name 'filbert'.
