GILBERT FOLIOT (d. 1187) , See also:bishop of See also:Hereford, and of See also:London, is first mentioned as a See also:- MONK (O.Eng. munuc; this with the Teutonic forms, e.g. Du. monnik, Ger.

Shortly afterwards he became See also:prior of Clu ; then prior of See also:Abbeville, a See also:house dependent upon Cluny. In 1139 he was elected See also:- ABBOT (from the Hebrew ab, a father, through the Syriac abba, Lat. abbas, gen. abbatis, O.E. abbad, fr. late Lat. form abbad-em changed in 13th century under influence of the Lat. form to abbat, used alternatively till the end of the 17th century; Ger.

abbot of See also:Gloucester. The See also:appointment was confirmed by Stephen, and from the ecclesiastical point of view was unexceptionable. But the new abbot proved himself a valuable ally of the empress, and her ablest controversialist. Gilbert's reputation See also:grew rapidly. He was respected at See also:Rome; and he acted as the representative of the See also:primate, See also:Theobald, in the supervision of the Welsh See also:- CHURCH

king's choice. Becket, with rare forbearance, endeavoured to win his friendship by procuring for him the see of London (1163). But Gilbert evaded the customary profession of obedience to the primate, and apparently aspired to make his see See also:independent of See also:Canterbury. On the questions raised by the Constitutions of See also:Clarendon he sided with the king, whose See also:confessor he had nowbecome. He urged Becket to yield, and, when this See also:advice was rejected, encouraged his See also:fellow-bishops to repudiate the authority of the See also:archbishop. In the years of controversy which followed Becket's See also:flight the king depended much upon the bishop's skill as a disputant and diplomatist. Gilbert was twice ex-communicated by Becket, but both on these and on other occasions he showed See also:great dexterity in detaching the pope from the cause of the See also:- EXILE (Lat. exsilium or exilium, from exsul or exul, which is derived from ex, out of, and the root sal, to go, seen in salire, to leap, consul, &c.; the connexion with solum, soil, country is now generally considered wrong)
exile. To him it was chiefly due that Henry avoided an open conflict with Rome of the See also:kind which See also:John afterwards provoked. Gilbert was one of the bishops whose See also:excommunication in 1170 provoked the king's knights to See also:murder Becket; but he cannot be reproached with any See also:share in the See also:crime. His later years were uneventful, though he enjoyed great See also:influence with the king and among his fellow-bishops. Scholarly, dignified, ascetic in his private See also:life, devoted to the service of the Church, he was nevertheless more respected than loved. His nature was See also:cold; he made few See also:friends; and the taint of a calculating ambition runs through his whole career. He died in the See also:spring of 1187.
