Talk:Chrodbert I

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Robert was married possibly to Glismoda of Bavaria, parentage unknown.

[edit]

This puzzles me. Does the word 'possibly' refer to the possibility that there was no marriage? Is it implying that the marriage was invalid? Or is it trying to say she was a concubine? Or is it a query as to whether the marriage (or concubinage) was with some woman, whose name might have been Glismoda the Bavarian? The statement is unreferenced, and desperately needs to be footnoted.

My best guess is that, as it is the case with most information in this article, the sources cited are guesswork at best, hence 'possible'. Settipani's work isn't verifiable. The only really credible source (medieval lands, added by me) -which is based on rather terse source material- does not contain a literal reference to the bishop, who is only known from a later episcopal catalogue. Everything is based on a supposed relationship between a number of individuals all named 'Robert'. It seems several individuals were mixed up. Harachte (talk) 21:31, 30 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Something is wrong

[edit]

How could he would die after 695 as his grandson Chrodbert II died after 678??
