Hugh's correctorium
I revised the earlier version which read: "He directed the first revision of the text of the Vulgate, begun in 1236 by the Dominicans; this first "correctorium," vigorously criticized by Roger Bacon, was revised in 1248 and in 1256, and forms the basis of the celebrated Correctorium Bibliae Sorbonicum." My reasons for doing so were that in the previous sentence, Hugh's correctorium and the decrees of the General Chapter of 1236, in which the "correctiones biblie senonenses" are mentioned, have been mingled. The "Correctorium Bibliae Sorbonicum", to my knowledge, has nothing to do with the decrees of 1236, but is yet another correctorium. Jclinde, 11 December 2009, 14:02

Hugh and St. Louis IV
Jean de Joinville, in his "Life of St. Louis", relates Hugh's brief visit to the royal court, his address to the king, and affirms his status as a holy friar. This lively anecdote, in which Hugh lectures the saintly king and spurns an invitation to stay longer than a day at court, could be mentioned (and add some energy to this article, which currently reads a little drily). It would also be interesting to hear some of his purported miracles, if any references to them are extant.

Here is the reference to the visit to St. Louis: http://xtf.lib.virginia.edu/xtf/view?docId=legacy/uvaBook/tei/WedLord.xml&chunk.id=d28&toc.id=d28&brand=default.
