Why this is in the register
HOLLIS searches for 'Gilo Vita Hugonis Cluny', 'Life of St Hugh of Cluny Gilo' and 'Hugh abbot of Cluny life Gilo translation' return either zero records or the single German volume 'Die Geschichte von Cluny in den funf grossen Abtbiographien' (Stuttgart: Hiersemann, 2018), which translates the five abbatial lives into German; the only other hit is a description of a twelfth-century manuscript of the lives. No English translation is recorded, and no open electronic text was verified, so none is recorded here.
Gilo wrote the life of the abbot under whom Cluny's church was begun and whose abbacy marks the order's greatest political reach, and he wrote it as a monk of the house with direct knowledge of Hugh's last years. English biography of Hugh depends on modern studies; the contemporary life itself, with its detail on Cluny's building works and its relations with the papacy, has not been translated.
