Template:Short description Script error: No such module "For". Adelmann (Template:Langx, Template:Langx, Template:Langx, Template:Langx, Template:Langx; ?, – c. 1061, Brescia) was the bishop of Brescia, in Northern Italy, during the eleventh century. Adelmann seems to have become bishop there in 1050, and to have taken an active share in the church-reform movement of the period, especially against the clerical abuses of simony and concubinage.

Of unknown parentage and nationality, he was educated at the famous School of Chartres, in France, founded by Fulbert, and was considered one of his favourite scholars. Among his fellow students was Berengarius, to whom, at a later period, he addressed two letters. The second (incomplete) letter [1] is a dogmatic exposition of Christian teaching on the Eucharist;[2] the Benedictine editors of the Script error: No such module "Lang". call it "one of the finest literary documents of the period."

Calvin called him Script error: No such module "Lang".
