.
On the See also:death of Rufus he at once declared for Henry I., by whom he was nominated to the see of York
.
He made difficulties when required to give Anselm the usual profession of obedience; and it was perhaps to assert the importance of his see that he took the king's See also:side on the question of investitures
.
He pleaded Henry's cause at See also:Rome with See also:great ability, and claimed that he had obtained a promise, on the See also:pope's See also:part, to condone the existing practice of See also:lay See also:investiture
.
But this statement was contradicted by See also:Paschal, and Gerard incurred the suspicion of See also:perjury
.
About 1103 he wrote or inspired a See also:series of tracts which defended the king's See also:prerogative and attacked the See also:oecumenical pretensions of the papacy with great freedom of See also:language
.
He changed sides in 1105, becoming a stanch friend and sup-See also:porter of Anselm

Gerard was a See also:man of considerable learning and ability; but the chroniclers accuse of being lax in his morals, an astrologer and a worshipper of the See also:devil
