Prudentius, Galindo (d.861), Bp. of Troyes from
c.843. He played a major part in the controversy on
predestination between
Hincmar of Reims and
Gottschalk; he defended Gottschalk's Augustinianism and denied the general saving will of God. In his
Epistola ad Hincmarum he taught the doctrine of double predestination to damnation as well as to salvation.
