| | Lanfranc |
 | | Lanfranc's name is, with that of his successor, St. Anselm, inseparably coupled with the thorny question of investitures, for the differences between king and primate, which came to a head under St. Anselm, showed their beginnings under Lanfranc. | | | Needless to say, that doctrine did not take its rise then, or through Lanfranc but his masterly exposition of the Faith (always held by the Church implicitly, and merely enucleated by him) was given with a clearness and precision of definition such as has been handed down through succeeding ages to ourselves. | | | Through the contents of a certain letter, Lanfranc came to be suspected of sharing Berengarius's erroneous views, but he so ably explained his own opinions that he has stood forth ever since as the principal exponent of the doctrine which has from that date been labeled with the name of Transubstantiation. |

| | By long tradition the primate was entitled to a leading position in the king’s councils; and the interests of the Church demanded that Lanfranc should use his power in a manner not displeasing to the king. | | | On several occasions when William I was absent from England Lanfranc acted as his vicegerent; he then had opportunities of realizing the close connection between religious and secular affairs. | | | Henceforward Lanfranc exercised a perceptible influence on his master's policy. |

| | It has been said of Lanfranc that the Christ Church community was a living memorial to his own charity and devotion[26]. | | | Put simply, Lanfranc “could not present monasticism primarily in terms of inquiry or vocation: basic good order had to be established first.”[19] Another divisive matter which affected the Christ Church community during Lanfranc’s term of office, was the fierce rivalry which took place between its Anglo-Saxon and Norman inhabitants. | | | The Archbishop’s great humility meant that he never lost sight of his monastic roots, and he refused to accept that “a collection of monks”[24] was unable to function without a staff of clergy well versed in secular business. |
