John of Salisbury (
fl. 1120–80), studied at Paris under
Abelard and at Chartres, returning to England 1154. He was secretary to
Becket with whom he was exiled when he fell into disfavour with Henry II. He wrote a life of Becket and of
Anselm. He became bishop of Chartres in 1176. The most learned classical writer of his time, he was often seen as the principal humanist inspiration in ‘the twelfth-century Renaissance’. Among his works are the
Polycraticus (or
De nugis Curialium), on the vanities of the court and miscellaneous questions of philosophy; the
Metalogicon, a treatise on logic and an account of Aristotle's treatment of the subject; and
Historia Pontificalis. (See also
Anglo-Latin literature.)
