Berner (or Bernerus)

Berner (Or Bernerus)

a Benedictine monk of St. Remy, in Rheims, lived in the middle of the 10th century. He distinguished himself by the severe chastity of his manners; and in 948 he conducted to Humblieres, in Vermandois, a colony of monks of his convent, and cleared up the solitary country. He wrote there two small treatises: Vita Sanctes Hunegundis Humolariensis I, Abbatissce: — De Translatione Corporis Sanctee Hunegundis (inserted in the Acta Ord. Bened. by Mabillon).
