Description

Arnold is the shared name of several medieval figures gathered in one entry, and the article sorts them briskly. Arnold Amalricus, Cistercian abbot of Cîteaux in 1201, inquisitor and legate in 1204, and archbishop of Narbonne in 1212, died in 1225. His alleged order to kill Catholics and Albigenses alike at Béziers in 1209 is amply refuted, the article notes, by Tamizey de Larroque.

Others include Arnold of Badeto, Dominican prior of Limoux and general inquisitor at Toulouse in 1531, author of works on the world's wonders and against heresy. Arnold of Bonneval was Benedictine abbot of Chartres from 1144 to 1156, correspondent and biographer of Bernard. Arnold of Cologne was second master architect of Cologne cathedral, succeeding Gerhard, whose work with his son John shaped that great church.
