  === Life Sketch ===
  Robert I of Burgundy (1011 - 21 March 1076), known as Robert the Old and "Tete-Hardi", was Duke of Burgundy from 1032 to his death. Robert was son of King Robert II of France and brother of Henry I of France.
  
  In 1025, with the death of his eldest brother Hugh Magnus, he and Henry rebelled against their father and defeated him, forcing him back to Paris. In 1031, after the death of his father the king, Robert participated in a rebellion against his brother, in which he was supported by his mother, Constance of Arles. Peace was only achieved when Robert was given Burgundy (1032).
  
  Throughout his reign, he was little more than a robber baron who had no control over his vassals, whose estates he often plundered, especially those of the Church. He seized the income of the diocese of Autun and the wine of the canons of Dijon. He burgled the abbey of St-Germain at Auxerre. In 1048, he repudiated his wife, Helie of Semur followed by the assassination of her brother Joceran and the murdering her father, his father-in-law, Lord Dalmace I of Semur, with his own hands. In that same year, the Bishop of Langres, Harduoin, refused to dedicate the church of Sennecy so as not "to be exposed to the violence of the duke."
  
  His first son, Hugh, died in battle at a young age and his second son, Henry, also predeceased him. He was succeeded by Henry's eldest son, his grandson, Hugh I.

  Robert I, called "Robert the Old," was made Duke of Burgundy in 1032 by his brother, King of France Henry I, and was the founder of the first ducal succession of the House of Capet. His reign was filled with civil wars, since the nobles of Burgundy refused to accept him as their overlord. His disposition was violent, and in a fit of anger he killed his father-in-law, an act for which he was excommunicated by the Pope. In contrition he built the Priory of Semur, whose sculptural decorations include several scenes depicting the crime and, in 1060, he became reconciled with the church.
