| <p> (or Tilpin), a French prelate of the 8th century, of whose early history nothing definite is known, was a monk of St. Denis, and became bishop of [[Rheims]] probably in 753, after a long opposition by Milon. He was one of the twelve French bishops present in 769 at the council called at Rome by pope [[Stephen]] to condemn the antipope Constantine. About 786 [[Turpin]] founded a chapel dedicated to St. Denis, which afterwards became an abbacy. He died Sept. 2,800. He left a genuine letter to pope [[Adrian]] I, and a romantic Latin Chronicle of the wars of [[Charlemagne]] against the [[Saracens]] in Spain, the authenticity of which has been greatly doubted, although avouched by a declaration of pope [[Calixtus]] in 1122. The oldest MSS. of it date from the end of the 11th century, and the first writer who speaks of it is Raoul of Tortoire (1096-1145). The Latin text was published in 1584 by Schard, in his Germanicarum Rerum Chronographi, and French versions have appeared by Raguin (Paris, 1527, 4to; Lyons, 1583, 8vo, etc.), and lately by Ciampi (Florence, 1822, with a dissertation on the author) and Reiffenberg (Brussels, 1836). See Gascon Paris, De Pseudo Turpino (Paris, 1865). </p> | | == References == |
