Amandus (Fayeta)

(called Fayeta) was abbot OF ST. BAVON, at Ghent, in the 14th century, and was very zealous against the Flagellants (q.v.); and it was at his instance that pope Clement VII entirely put an end to them. He resigned his abbacy before his death, which happened in 1394. He composed a treatise, De Esu Carnium, and other works.
