Note:
"Not all founders [of monasteries] were known for their
kindness. Fulk
of Anjou, plunderer, murderer, robber, and swearer of
fale oaths, a truly
terrifying character of fiendish cruelty, founded not
one but two large
abbeys. This Fulk was filled with unbridled passion, a
temper directed
to extremes. Whenever he had the slightest difference
with a neighbor
he rushed upon his lands, ravaging, pillaging, raping,
and killing; nothing
could stop him, least of all the commandments of God.
This appalling
man had countless crimes upon his conscience, but
when seized with a
fit of remorse he abandoned himself to incredible
penances. Thus the
very tomb of St. Martin, whose monks he had
ill-treated, saw him
prostrate, with bare feet and in penitent's dress; and
four times during
his life he went to Jerusalem as a devout pilgrim,
treading half-naked
the sorrowful road of the passion while two of his
servants flogged him
until the blood flowed, crying, "Lord, receive thy
perjured Fulk!" "
--- Richard Erdoes, *AD 1000: Living on the Brink of
Apocalypse*,
1988 (reprint 1995) p 12.

Subject: Re: FULK THE BLACK
"Fulk is spoken of elsewhere with admiration. R. W.
Southern, The
Making of the Middle Ages, pp. 83-86, calls him (86) a
'man of note' and a
'pioneer in the art of feudal government,' particularly in
the building and
strategic use of stone castles. Bernard Bachrach's
biography of Fulk is
more openly admiring in an Ayn Rand sort of way. Fulk
may not have been
particularly sensitive, but a fitting progenitor for the
likes of Henry II &
Edward I."
