About this person

Oliba was the count of Berga and Ripoll (988-1002), and later abbot of the monasteries of Santa Maria de Ripoll and Sant Miquel de Cuixà (1008-1046) and the bishop of Vic (1018-1046). He is considered one of the spiritual founders of Catalonia and perhaps the most important prelate of his age in the Iberian Peninsula. Oliba was a great writer, and from his scriptorium at Ripoll flowed a ceaseless stream of works which are enlightening about his world. Most important are the Arabic manuscripts he translated into Latin for the benefit of 11th-century and later scholars.
