Serlo of Wilton (c. 1105–1181) was a 12th-century English poet, a friend of Walter Map[1] and known to Gerald of Wales.[2] He studied and taught at the University of Paris. He became a Cluniac and then a Cistercian monk, and in 1171 he became abbot of L'Aumône Abbey, a Cistercian monastery between Chartres and Blois. He died in 1181.
Serlo's poems are in Latin, of which the most famous is Linquo coax ranis.
He is the subject of an 1899 essay by the French author Marcel Schwob, La légende de Serlon de Wilton.
