William I of Aquitaine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

William I (died July 6, 918), called the Pious, was the Count of Auvergne from 886 and Duke of Aquitaine from 893, succeeding the Poitevin ruler Ebalus Manser. He made numerous monastic foundations, most important among them the foundation of Cluny on September 11, 910.

William was the son of the Bernard II of Auvergne and Ermengard. Sometime before 898, he married the Bosonid Engelberga, daughter of Boso and Ermengard.

By inheritance, he was the master of Auvergne and the Limousin. He conquered Poitou and Aquitaine in 893 on behalf of Ebalus Manser. He kept the latter for himself and was proclaimed duke. His possessions extended from Austrasia to Toulouse and included the Autunois and Mâconnais.

In 910, William founded the Benedictine abbey of Cluny that would become an important political and religious centre. William required no control over the abbey and established that the Cluniac house was responsible directly to the pope (see Clunian reforms). William nominated Cluny's first abbot, Bernon de Baume.

A sign of William's independence of rule in Aquitaine is that he had a deniers minted in his own name at Brioude.[1] He was buried in the monastery of Saint-Julien there. He had no sons of his own and was succeeded by a nephew, William the Younger, son of his sister Adelinda.

William required no control over the abbey, which he arranged should be responsible directly to the pope (see Clunian reforms). This was especially striking since most monasteries were owned privately and the appointment of abbots and officials was left to that family or individual.

'''Guillaume Ier d'Aquitaine'''

image: Guillaume le Pieux, d'après une lettrine enluminée (BNF, Ms. Lat. 17716, f°85.)

Guillaume Ier d'Aquitaine dit Le Pieux (né v. 22 mars 875 - mort le 6 juillet 918 à Lyon) fut marquis de Gothie, comte d'Auvergne, de Berry, de Limousin, de Lyon et de Mâcon, puis duc d'Aquitaine et abbé laïque de Saint-Julien de Brioude.

Guillaume était le fils de Bernard Plantevelue, comte d'Auvergne et d'Ermengarde d'Auvergne.

Il était maître de l’Auvergne et du Limousin par son père, et duc d'Aquitaine. Ses biens s’étendaient de la Bourgogne au Toulousain en passant par l’Autunois, le Mâconnais, le Lyonnais, le Berry, l’Auvergne, le Velay, le Gévaudan,la Gothie (actuel Languedoc).

Avant 898, il épousa Engelberge ou Ingelberge, fille du roi de Bourgogne-Provence Boson de Vienne et d'Ermengarde, elle-même fille unique de l'empereur Louis II le Jeune.

Il fonda l'abbaye de Cluny en 909, le 11 septembre, et y nomma Bernon de Baume comme abbé. Il reçut Odon de Cluny pour son apprentissage de la chevalerie à 13 ans1 en sa cour.

Il mourut le 6 juillet 918 et fut inhumé à l'abbaye de Brioude près des tombes du martyr saint Julien et de l'empereur Avitus.

Lui succèderont brièvement comme ducs d'Aquitaine, ses deux neveux, fils de sa sœur Adélinda d'Aquitaine et d'Acfred de Carcassonne : Guillaume II le Jeune (918-926) et Acfred (926-927). Ils ne laissent pas d'héritiers, et après eux, pendant plusieurs années, a lieu une véritable « guerre de succession » au duché d'Aquitaine, entre la Maison de Poitiers et celle de Toulouse.
