Note

'''Da Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia libera.''' Eadgifu (o Edgiva, fr: Edw ige) (Wessex, 902 – dopo il 955) era figlia di Edoardo il Vecchio, r e del Wessex e d'Inghilterra, e della sua seconda moglie Aelfflaed. F u la seconda moglie di Carlo il Semplice, re dei Franchi, che sposò i l 10 febbraio 919 dopo la morte della sua prima moglie, Frederonne; f u madre del futuro re Luigi IV di Francia. Nel 922 Carlo il Semplic e fu deposto, e l'anno successivo fu preso prigioniero dal conte Erber to II di Vermandois. Preoccupata per la sorte di suo figlio, Eadgifu r iparò con lui in Inghilterra, presso la corte del suo fratellastro At elstano. A seguito di questa vicenda, Luigi IV di Francia fu soprannom inato Luigi d'Oltremare. Quando Luigi, nel 936, fu richiamato in Franc ia per esserne incoronato re, Eadgifu lo seguì, e successivamente s i ritirò in convento a Laon fino al 951, anno in cui si risposò, iro nia della sorte, con Erberto III d'Omois, figlio del conte Erberto I I di Vermandois, l'antico nemico del primo marito.

William of Malmesbury names (in order) "Edfleda, Edgiva, Ethelhil da, Ethilda, Edgitha, Elfgiva" as the six daughters of King Eadwear d & his wife "Elfleda", specifying that Edgiva married "king Charles " [1]. The Book of Hyde names "Edgivam" as second of the six daughter s of King Eadweard by his first wife "Elfelmi comitis filia Elfleda" , specifying that she married "Karolo regi Francorum filio Lodowyci" [ 2]. Her birth date range is estimated from the birth of Eadgifu's so n in [920/21]. If this is correct, Eadgifu must have been one of Kin g Edward's oldest children by his second marriage. She fled with her t wo-year-old son to England in 923 after her first husband was deposed . She returned to France in 936. Abbess of Notre Dame de Laon, resigne d 951.
