Dhuoda
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dhuoda was the wife of Bernard of Septimania and the author of the Liber Manualis.
Her first son William was given hostage to Charles the Bald in 841 as a pledge of loyalty by Bernard of Septimania. Dhuoda wrote the Manual for William, but crafted the phrasing knowing that other potential enemies of the time could/would read it.
