William Warelwast (died 1137) was a medieval Norman cleric and Bishop of Exeter in England. Warelwast was a native of Normandy, but little is known about his background before 1087, when he appears as a royal clerk for King William II. Most of his royal service to William was as a diplomatic envoy, as he was heavily involved in the king's dispute with Anselm, the Archbishop of Canterbury, which constituted the English theatre of the Investiture Controversy. He went several times to Rome as an emissary to the papacy on business related to Anselm, one of whose supporters, the medieval chronicler Eadmer, alleged that Warelwast bribed the pope and the papal officials to secure favourable outcomes for King William.

dbo:abstract
  • William Warelwast, a veces conocido como William de Warelwast​ (muerto en 1137), fue un clérigo medieval normando y obispo de Exeter en Inglaterra. Warelwast era nativo de Normandía, pero se sabe poco sobre su pasado antes de 1087, cuando era secretario real del rey Guillermo II. La mayoría de su servicio al rey Guillermo fue como enviado diplomático, cuando estuvo muy implicado en la disputa del rey con Anselmo, el Arzobispo de Canterbury, lo que supuso el escenario inglés de la Querella de las Investiduras. Fue varias veces a Roma como un emisario al papa en los asuntos relacionados con Anselmo, uno de cuyos partidarios, el cronista medieval Eadmer, declaró que Warelwast sobornaba al papa y a los oficiales papales para asegurar resultados favorables para el rey Guillermo. Posiblemente presente en la muerte del rey Guillermo durante un accidente de caza, Warelwast sirvió como diplomático al sucesor del rey, Enrique I. Después de la resolución de la Querella de las Investiduras, Warelwast fue premiado con el obispado de Exeter en Devon, aunque continuó sirviendo a Enrique como diplomático y juez real. Empezó la construcción de una nueva catedral en Exeter, y probablemente dividió la diócesis en archidiócesis. Warelwast se quedó ciego después de 1120, y después de su muerte en 1137 le sucedió su sobrino, Robert Warelwast. (es)

Possibly present at King William's death in a hunting accident, Warelwast served as a diplomat to the king's successor, Henry I. After the resolution of the Investiture Controversy, Warelwast was rewarded with the bishopric of Exeter in Devon, but he continued to serve Henry as a diplomat and royal judge. He began the construction of a new cathedral at Exeter, and he probably divided the diocese into archdeaconries. Warelwast went blind after 1120, and after his death in 1137 was succeeded by his nephew, Robert Warelwast. (en)
