Richard of Poitiers
Richard of Poitiers (died c. 1174), also known as Richard of Cluny, was a monk of the Benedictine abbey of Cluny, and author of a small number of historical works (including a universal chronicle), treatises and poems.
==Life==

Little is known about the life of Richard of Poitiers beyond the barest biographical details suggested in the title and dedication prefacing his ''Chronica''. His name, ''Richardus Pictauiensis'' indicates that he was a native of the region of Poitou, France. He calls himself a ''monachus cluniacensis'', an ambiguous term suggesting either that he was a monk of the Abbey of Cluny or that he was a member of the Europe-wide network of Cluniac monasteries (the ''Ecclesia Cluniacensis'').〔Saurette, p. 306〕 Scholars have identified no further conclusive evidence for his life or background. On the basis of unique local material in a single manuscript of Richard's ''Chronica'', Élie Berger concluded that he resided in a Cluniac priory on the island of Aix in Poitou. The subsequent work of I. Schnack suggested, in contrast, that Richard wrote in the scriptorium of the Abbey of Cluny. The lack of any conclusive evidence makes it difficult to resolve this disagreement.〔See H. Kühl, pp. 75-76 for a summary of this debate.〕 From Richard's dedication of his chronicle to Peter the Venerable, it is evident that Richard was at work by 1156, the year of Peter's death. The poems attributed to Richard's authorship include an ode to London, and a condemnation of sea sickness, both of which suggest that Richard travelled beyond the confines of medieval France.〔Scott, p. 105-8.〕
Richard of Poitiers should not be confused with Richard of Ilchester, an English contemporary who was also known as Richard of Poitiers while Archdeacon of the Cathedral of Poitiers. He should also be distinguished from King Richard I of England, whom some chroniclers of the Crusades refer to as Richard of Poitiers.
