Jocelin (or Jocelyn) (died 1199) was a twelfth-century Cistercian monk and cleric who became the fourth Abbot of Melrose before becoming Bishop of Glasgow, Scotland. He was probably born in the 1130s, and in his teenage years became a monk of Melrose Abbey. He rose in the service of Abbot Waltheof, and by the time of the short abbacy of Waltheof's successor Abbot William, Jocelin had become prior. Then in 1170 Jocelin himself became abbot, a position he held for four years. Jocelin was responsible for promoting the cult of the emerging Saint Waltheof, and in this had the support of Enguerrand, Bishop of Glasgow.

Jocelin was responsible for promoting the cult of the emerging Saint Waltheof, and in this had the support of Enguerrand, Bishop of Glasgow. His Glasgow connections and political profile were already well-established enough that in 1174 Jocelin succeeded Enguerrand as Glasgow's bishop. As Bishop of Glasgow, he was a royal official. In this capacity he travelled abroad on several occasions, and performed the marriage ceremony between King William the Lion and Ermengarde de Beaumont, later baptising their son, the future King Alexander II. Among other things, he has been credited by modern historians as "the founder of the burgh of Glasgow and initiator of the Glasgow fair", as well as being one of the greatest literary patrons in medieval Scotland, commissioning the Life of St Waltheof, the Life of St Kentigern and the Chronicle of Melrose.

  • Jocelin ou Jocelyn - aussi appelé Jocelin de Glasgow (afin de le distinguer de son contemporain homonyme Jocelyn de Furness), est un religieux écossais mort en 1199. C'était un ecclésiastique, moine de l'ordre cistercien, du XIIe siècle, qui devint le quatrième abbé de Melrose, avant d'être fait évêque de Glasgow (Écosse). Il est probablement né dans les années 1130 et, encore adolescent, il devint moine à l'abbaye de Melrose. Il s'éleva dans la hiérarchie au service de l'abbé Waltheof et était déjà devenu prieur (c'est-à-dire responsable d'une partie de l'administration), lorsque l'abbé William succéda à Waltheof. En 1170, Jocelin devint abbé pour quatre années. Il était chargé de promouvoir le nouveau culte voué à l'abbé Waltheof, devenu saint ; il était soutenu dans cette action par Enguerrand, évêque de Glasgow. Ses bonnes relations avec Glasgow et son profil politique furent suffisants pour qu'en 1174 Jocelin succédât à Enguerrand comme évêque de Glasgow, devenant ainsi fonctionnaire royal. En tant que tel, il voyagea à l'étranger à plusieurs reprises et célébra le mariage entre le roi Guillaume Ier et Ermengarde de Beaumont. Il baptisera plus tard leur enfant Alexandre qui fut sacré roi à l'abbaye de Scone en 1214. Des historiens modernes le considèrent comme « le fondateur du burgh de Glasgow et l'initiateur de la foire de Glasgow ». Il fut également l'un des plus grands mécènes de la littérature écossaise du Moyen Âge, commandant la Vie de saint Waltheof (Life of St Waltheof), la Vie de saint Kentigern (Life of St Kentigern) et les Chroniques de Melrose.

  • Jocelin di Glasgow (1130 circa – Melrose, 17 marzo 1199) è stato un abate e vescovo cattolico britannico dell'ordine dei Cistercensi, che divenne abate presso l'abbazia di Melrose prima di diventare vescovo di Glasgow. Crebbe al servizio dell'abate Valteno di Melrose. Quando divenne abate William, successore di Valteno, Jocelin fu nominato priore finché nel 1170 egli stesso non divenne abate, carica che mantenne per quattro anni. Fu grazie a Jocelin che Valteno riuscì ad assurgere agli onori degli altari supportato in questo da Enguerrand (morto 1174), vescovo di Glasgow. Le connessioni politiche che Jocelin intratteneva con la città scozzese erano già sviluppate quando Enguerrand morì ed egli venne quindi eletto in sua vece, in qualità di vescovo divenne anche un ufficiale regio e in queste vesti fece diversi viaggi officiando per altro il matrimonio di Guglielmo I di Scozia con Ermengarda de Beaumont e più tardi battezzò il loro figlio Alessandro (it)
