Eudes de Deuil
Eudes de Deuil (also called Odon de Deuil ) is a monk Bénédictin French, born towards 1110 with Deuil and dead the April 8th 1162.
Of modest origin, he becomes the confidant of the abbot Suger, character important of the kingdom, abbot of Saint-Denis, adviser of the kings Louis VI '' the Large '' and Louis VII, and regent during the absence of this last at the time the second Croisade. It is Suger, which imposes Eudes as a secretary and a chaplain of king de France.
This prestigious station leads it to enter the continuation of the king, and to take part in the second crusade in 1147. Thus it writes a chronicle, entitled Of the forwarding of Louis VII in the East , chronicle enabling us to apprehend the difficulties encountered at the time of this crusade (relations with Greeks, currents divergent with the report heading, etc). This chronicle stops at the time of the arrival of the crusade with Antioche.
Once returned of the crusades he was abbot of Saint-Denis in 1151, thus succeeding Suger. ----
