Middle Name King Of
Last Name Hungary
Died 1116
Nationality Hungarian

Coloman I the Book-lover (Hungarian: ), also spelled Koloman (c. 1074 – 3 February 1116), King of Hungary (1095–1116) and Croatia (from 1108 full royal title "King of Hungary, Slavonia, Croatia and Dalmatia"). Although Coloman was their father's elder son, during his reign Coloman had to fight against his brother, Duke Álmos who always disputed his right to the crown because Coloman probably had a physical deformity. Finally, Coloman ordered that his brother and his infant son were blinded which caused later chroniclers, who lived in the court of his brother's descendants, to accuse him of viciousness. However, he was one of the most educated rulers of his age, e.g. the Polish chronicler, Gallus Anonymus describes him as the king "who was more educated in literary sciences than any of the kings who was living in his age". Coloman, as legislator, mitigated the austerity of his predecessor's decrees.
