Commentary
Suger (1080-1151) est un abbé et homme d'État français qui fut le principal ministre des rois Louis VI le Gros et Louis VII le Jeune. Il est connu surtout par ses ambitions théologiques et artistiques qui le conduisirent à reconstruire la basilique de Saint-Denis, première construction d'architecture ogivale, et à donner naissance à l'art gothique.

He is best known for his theological and artistic ambitions, which led him to rebuild the Basilica of Saint-Denis, the first Gothic-style building, and to give birth to Gothic art.
