Eadmer of Canterbury

   Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.04 sec.

Eadmer of Canterbury (c.1064-1124)

English historian and monk. His works include a history of England 1060-1122, Historia Novorum in Anglia, and a biography of his friend and Archbishop of Canterbury, St Anselm.

Eadmer was elected bishop of St Andrews in 1120, but a dispute between the archbishops of Canterbury and York, and the Scottish king over control of the bishopric meant that he never took office.
