Eremburga of Mortain (Eremburge de Mortain)〔Goffredo Malaterra's words: "''Eremburga filia Gulielmi comitis Mortonensis''"〕 was the second wife of Count Roger I of Sicily and thus the second Sicilian countess. She is very obscure and details of her life are almost unknown to us today. Her father was either William, Count of Mortain〔''Norman Expansion: Connections, Continuities and Contrasts'' by Professor Andrew Jotischky and Professor Keith Stringer〕 or Robert d'Eu, and if he was Eremburga's father, then her mother was called Beatrix.〔(Eremburge de Mortain )〕 Roger married Eremburga in 1077 and she bore him several daughters and one son. Sources about her children gives many contradictory information. Eremburga's children were: *Matilda, wife of Count Ranulf II of Alife and mother of Robert〔''De Rebus Gestis Rogerii Siciliæ Regis'' of Alessandro, Abbot of Telese〕 *Flandina, wife of Henry del Vasto, whose sister married Roger after Eremburga's death *Constance (Matilda), wife of Conrad II of Italy *Judith, who founded a Cluniac abbey at Sciacca〔From a charter: "''Jullita filia comitis Rogerii cum consensus fratris mei Rogerii regis Sicilie ducatus Apulie et principatus Capue''."〕 *Mauger, Count of Troina Son of Flandina was Count Simon of Policastro. It is possible that Felicia of Sicily, mother of Stephen II of Hungary, was Eremburga's daughter,〔Norwich, John Julius (1992). ''The Normans in Sicily''. Penguin Books. ISBN 978-0-14-015212-8.〕 and Geoffrey, Count of Ragusa was maybe Eremburga's son. Another possible Eremburga's child was Princess Muriel. According to Goffredo Malaterra, Eremburga died in 1089. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eremburga of Mortain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
