Robert was educated at Rheims under Gerbert (later Pope Silvester II). "As
the ideal of mediaeval Christianity he won his surname of `Pious' by his
humility and charity, but he also possessed some of the qualities of a
soldier and a statesman." Crowned in 12-987, he became sole king on his
father's death in 996. Marriage irregularities led to his excommunication
by Pope Gregory V.{-Encycl.Brit.,`56,19:347}
"Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992) 101-21 gives his birth year as 985.
