Near the time of the novel's publication inHarper was in part inspired by the wedding of Charles, The of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencerparticularly when the newly married couple appeared on the balcony of Buckingham Palace together. Later, however, Harper felt the romance between Edward and Joan in her novel better resembled the "longtime, sometimes secret love between Prince Charles and Camilla ", as the author felt both couples faced opposition from their respective families.

Kings and Princes of Wales Born inprobably at Kenilworth Castle, Eleanor de Montfort was the only daughter and sixth child of Eleanor of England. Her father, Simon de Montfort, is remembered as one of the founders of representative government. He and his the son, Henry, were killed at the Battle of Evesham the 4th August Eleanor was taken to close, but comfortable, captivity at Windsor; whilst her brother Amaury was imprisoned at Corfe Castle for 6 years. In Llewelyn having refused to pay homage to Edward I, he was declared a rebel. Edward and his brother, Edmund of Lancaster gave Eleanor away at the church door, and Edward paid for the lavish wedding feast. While the marriage did not prevent further struggles between the Welsh and the English king, there was relative peace for a short time and Eleanor may have First Princess of Wales her husband to seek political solutions. She is known to have visited the English court when Princess of Wales; and was at Windsor on such a visit in January First Princess of Wales as we have heard, the contrary hereto hath been reported of us to your excellency by some; the we believe, notwithstanding, that you in no wise give credit to any who report unfavourably concerning our lord and ourself until you learn from First Princess of Wales if such speeches contain truth: because you showed, of your grace, so much honour and so much friendliness to our lord and yourself, when you were at the last time at Worcester. As a testament to her diplomatic First Princess of Wales, Eleanor uses First Princess of Wales of affection and flattery whilst clearly getting her point across, a technique her predecessor Joan, Lady of Wales, had used to good effect with Henry III. She wrote to the king. For if your excellency, as we have often known, mercifully condescends to strangers, the much reason, as First Princess of Wales think, ought you to hold out the hand of pity to one so near to you by the ties of nature. At the same time, Eleanor was the the final few months of her pregnancy and Llewelyn held off taking the field until the birth of his much hoped for heir. Llewelyn himself was killed in an ambush on 11 December of the same year, at Builth, earning himself the name of Llewelyn the Last — the last native Prince of Wales. She was sent to be raised at the Gilbertine convent First Princess of Wales Sempringham, where she eventually became a nun. It is said that she was never allowed to speak, hear or learn her native language. Eleanor de Montfort was the first First Princess of Wales known to have used the title First Princess of Wales of Wales. Sources: castlewales.

Hi Thomas, thanks for the comment. Yes, I believe Guy de Montfort had a couple of daughters after he married in Italy. Elizabeth Woodville, wife of Edward IV, was descended from him, which makes the current royal family his descendants. Best wishes, Sharon. You are commenting using your WordPress.

Princess of Wales Theatre | Mirvish | The Official Source for Tickets Although the Romans invaded Wales in the first century AD, only South Wales ever became part of the Roman world as North and Mid-Wales is largely mountainous making communications difficult and presenting obstacles to any invader. After the Roman period the Welsh kingdoms that emerged were the ones that commanded stretches of useful lowland, especially Gwynedd in the north, Ceredigion in the south-west, Dyfed Deheubarth in the south and Powys in the east. Powys would always be at a disadvantage however, due to its close proximity to England. The great princes of medieval Wales were all westerners, mainly from Gwynedd. Their authority was such that they could wield authority well beyond the borders of their kingdoms, enabling many to claim to rule all Wales. HRH Prince Charles currently holds the title. Unlike their invasion of England, the Norman penetration into Wales took First Princess of Wales very gradually after …. The story of Gruffudd ap Llywelyn, how he united Wales, and the role he played in the years running up…. King of Gwynedd. He was killed in battle alongside his brother fighting Ceolwulf of Mericia. Acknowledging Alfred as his overlord, he gained equality with Ethelred of Mercia. With English help he ravaged Ceredigion in Idwal inherited the throne from his father Anarawd. Although he intially allied himself with the Saxon First Princess of Wales, he rebelled against the English fearing they First Princess of Wales usurp him in favour of Hywel Dda. Idwal was killed in the battle that followed. The throne should have passed First Princess of Wales his sons Iago and Ieuaf, however Hywel invaded and expelled them. The son of Cadell ap Rhodri, Hywel Dda inherited Ceredigion from First Princess of Wales father, gained Dyfed by marriage and acquired Gwynedd following the death the his cousin Idwal Foel in Thus, most of Wales was united during his reign. A frequent visitor to the House of Wessexhe even made a pilgrimage to Rome in A scholar, Hywel was the only Welsh ruler to issue his own coins and compile a code of law for the country. Excluded from the kingdom by his the Hywel Dda after his father was killed in battle, Iago together with his brother Ieuaf returned to reclaim their throne. In following some brotherly banter, Iago imprisoned Ieuaf. Iago was one of the Welsh princes that paid homage to the English king, Edgar, at Chester First Princess of Wales In assisted by English troops, Hywel defeated his uncle Iago in battle. That very same year Iago was captured by a force of Vikings and mysteriously disappeared, leaving Hywel as the sole ruler of Gwynedd. Custennin was killed in the battle. Hywel was killed by his English allies in and was succeeded by his brother Cadwallon ap Ieuaf. Succeeding to the throne following the death of his brother Hywel, he ruled for just one First Princess of Wales before Maredudd ab Owain of Deheubarth invaded Gwynedd. Cadwallon was killed in the battle. After defeating Cadwallon and adding Gwynedd to his kingdom, Maredudd effectively united north and south Wales. The his reign Viking raids were a constant problem with many of his subjects being slaughtered or taken as captives. Maredudd was said to have then paid a considerable ransom for the freedom of the hostages. The son of Hywell ap Ieuaf, he inherited the throne of Gwynedd after the death of Maredudd. Although of noble First Princess of Wales, it is unclear how Aeddan siezed the throne of Gwynedd following the death of Cynan as he was not in the direct line of royal succession. In his leadership was challenged by Llywelyn ap Seisyll, The and his four sons were killed in the battle. Llywelyn gained the throne of Gwynedd and Powys by defeating First Princess of Wales ap Blegywryd, and then went on to take control of Deheubarth by killing the Irish pretender, Rhain.

    2 In memory of Jeffrey Martin Whittock (1927–2013), much-loved and respected father and papa. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of people provided valuable advice which assisted in the preparation of this book; without them, of course, carrying any responsibility for the interpretations offered by the book. We are particularly indebted to our agent Robert Dudley who, as always, offered guidance and support, as did Simon Hamlet and Mark Beynon at The History Press. In addition, Bradford-on-Avon library, and the Wiltshire and the Somerset Library services, provided access to resources through the inter-library loans service. For their help and for this service we are very grateful. Through Hannah’s undergraduate BA studies and then MPhil studies in the department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC) at Cambridge University (2008–12), the invaluable input of many brilliant academics has shaped our understanding of this exciting and complex period of history, and its challenging sources of evidence. The resulting familiarity with Old English, Old Norse and Insular Latin has greatly assisted in critical reflection on the written sources. As always, the support and interest provided by close family and friends cannot be measured but is much appreciated. And they have been patient as meal-time conversations have given way to discussions of the achievements of Alfred and Athelstan, the impact of Eric Bloodaxe and the agendas of the compilers of the 4 Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 5 CONTENTS Title Dedication Acknowledgements Introduction 1 The Gathering

  • Welsh Kings at Anglo-Saxon Royal Assemblies (928–55) Simon Keynes
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Apollo Keynes The Henry Loyn Memorial Lecture for 2008 Welsh kings at Anglo-Saxon royal assemblies (928–55) Simon Keynes A volume containing the collected papers of Henry Loyn was published in 1992, five years after his retirement in 1987.1 A memoir of his academic career, written by Nicholas Brooks, was published by the British Academy in 2003.2 When reminded in this way of a contribution to Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman studies sustained over a period of 50 years, and on learning at the same time of Henry’s outstanding service to the academic communities in Cardiff, London, and elsewhere, one can but stand back in awe. I was never taught by Henry, but encountered him at critical moments—first as the external examiner of my PhD thesis, in 1977, and then at conferences or meetings for twenty years thereafter. Henry was renowned not only for the authority and crystal clarity of his published works, but also as the kind of speaker who could always be relied upon to bring a semblance of order and direction to any proceedings—whether introducing a conference, setting out the issues in a way which made one feel that it all mattered, and that we stood together at the cutting edge of intellectual endeavour; or concluding a conference, artfully drawing together the scattered threads and making it appear as if we’d been following a plan, and might even have reached a conclusion. First place at a conference in the 1970s and 1980s was known as the ‘Henry Loyn slot’, and was normally occupied by Henry Loyn himself; but once, at the British Museum, he was for some reason not able to do it, and I was prevailed upon to do it in his place.

The Strange End of the Mercian Kingdom, 850-924* by Charles Insley 1. Introduction The “C” manuscript of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle has the following entry for the year 1007: In this year also Eadric was appointed ealdorman over all the Mercian kingdom (geond eall myrcena rice)1. This is quite striking phrasing, given that the Mercian kingdom had not existed as an independent political entity since – by some accounts – the 880s, some one hundred and twenty years earlier. One might be tempted to dismiss this phrase as antiquarianism on behalf of the compiler of the “C” manuscript, probably writing in East Anglia in around 1016 or 1017, except for the fact that the Mercians and the Mercian kingdom appear elsewhere long af- ter its supposed demise at the end of the ninth century2. A decade or so before Ealdorman Eadric’s appointment in 1007, the will of a thegn from Essex, in eastern England, named Æthelric of Bocking, had caused some political prob- lems3. Æthelric had died in around 995 or 996, having been accused of un- specified treasons.

  • From Footnotes to Narrative
    1 INTRODUCTION LANGUISHING IN THE FOOTNOTES: WOMEN AND WELSH MEDIEVAL HISTORIOGRAPHY The era known as the high Middle Ages, in particular the thirteenth century, was an epochal period for Wales. While the high Middle Ages was a period of cultural transformation in all of western Europe, in Wales it was also a time of great upheaval and complete change, which was to have a greater impact on Welsh society than was experienced by most other medieval societies. In fact, for some, the effects of this upheaval and change in Wales may be described as catastrophic. The thirteenth century has been called the ‘age of the Welsh Princes’. Under the leadership of the rulers of the house of Gwynedd, the Welsh achieved some measure of independence from their English overlords during this century. For a time the native Welsh princes were able to mitigate their characteristic unrelenting internal conflict and factionalism and unite against their Anglo-Norman oppressors.1 Fundamental changes which were to have an overwhelming effect on Wales took place in England during this period. For example, the end of the twelfth and beginning of the thirteenth centuries saw the gradual introduction of the English common law into England, much of which is still in use to this day. The ascension to the English throne in 1272 of Edward I, who unlike his two predecessors was a strong king, was another factor in this upheaval and change which took place in Wales. 1 K.

    Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Owain ap Hywel (b. before 929, d. 988) David E. Thornton https://doi.org/10.1093/ref:odnb/51404 Published in print: 23 September 2004 Published online: 23 September 2004 Owain ap Hywel (b. before 929, d. 988), king of Deheubarth, was the son of Hywel Dda, descendant of Rhodri Mawr of Gwynedd, and Elen ferch Llywarch (d. 929) of Dyfed. Owain ruled the kingdom of Deheubarth, in south Wales, jointly from 950 and singly from about 954 until his death in 988. His father Hywel had possibly annexed Dyfed on account of his marriage into the ruling dynasty, and, on the death of his cousin Idwal Foel in 942, had added Gwynedd and other parts of north Wales to his kingdom. On Hywel's own death in 949 or 950 the southern portion of this kingdom fell under the collective rule of his sons, including no doubt Owain, while the northern portion was contested by the sons of Idwal Foel, Iago and Ieuaf. The two groups fought at Nant Carno (in Arwystli) in 950, which was a victory for the sons of Idwal and perhaps thus secured their position in the north. The latter were sufficiently strong in 952 to take the fight into Dyfed twice. In 954 Owain and his brothers retaliated and the two groups met at Llanrwst (in the Conwy valley, Gwynedd). The sons of Idwal were the victors; they slew Owain's brother Edwin, and afterwards raided Ceredigion. It is not wholly clear at what point Owain came to dominate Deheubarth as opposed to sharing power with his brothers.

    Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Anarawd ap Rhodri (d. 916) Arthur Miller, revised by David E. Thornton https://doi.org/10.1093/ref:odnb/458 Published in print: 23 September 2004 Published online: 23 September 2004 Anarawd ap Rhodri (d. 916), king in Wales, was the son of Rhodri Mawr and Angharad ferch Meurig of Ceredigion. With the division of political power in north Wales on Rhodri's death at English hands in 878, later medieval sources credited Anarawd with either Powys or (more accurately) Gwynedd. He is often regarded as the eldest of Rhodri's male offspring, and therefore the natural heir to the regions of Gwynedd and Anglesey. The contemporary reference in the ‘Nennian’ recension of the Historia Brittonum calls Anarawd 'rex Monie' (‘King of Anglesey’) about 907–8. Whether his power extended eastwards into Powys (which may have come under Rhodri's control in 854–5) and southwards into Ceredigion (likewise in 872) is not clear. In 881 the sons of Rhodri Mawr fought the battle of Conwy, also known as the ‘avenging of Rhodri’, which implies both that it was directed against the same (English) foe who slew Rhodri and that Anarawd and his brothers were victorious. Later Welsh genealogies state that the battle was fought against 'Edryd Long Hair, king of England', possibly Æthelred, ealdorman of Mercia. The sons of Rhodri Mawr did not content themselves with fighting the English but also continued their father's policy of expansion within Wales. In his Life of King Alfred Asser states that predatory attacks by Anarawd and his brother had forced Hyfaidd ap Bleddri of Dyfed and Elise ap Tewdwr of Brycheiniog to seek the protection of the West Saxon king.

    Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Cadell ap Rhodri (d. 910) David E. Thornton https://doi.org/10.1093/ref:odnb/4296 Published in print: 23 September 2004 Published online: 23 September 2004 Cadell ap Rhodri (d. 910), king in Wales, was one of the sons of Rhodri Mawr and Angharad ferch Feurig of Ceredigion. Although he is described as 'king' on his death in 910 and possibly had held that status since the demise of his father in 878, the exact location and extent of his ‘kingdom’ is not apparent. Later medieval accounts of the division of political power following Rhodri's death invariably credit Cadell with Deheubarth (probably here meaning south Wales in general), and one version claims he outlived his brothers and ruled the whole of Wales. Most of this is patently incorrect. Rhodri Mawr's authority never even extended over Dyfed which remained independent until 903–4 when it may have passed to Cadell's son Hywel Dda. Cadell's longevity is incorrect also: the longest-surviving known brother was Anarawd ap Rhodri (d. 916) of Gwynedd. Cadell is often allotted Ceredigion, which Rhodri had probably acquired in 872 through his wife, Angharad. His sons probably controlled this kingdom in the mid-880s when (according to Asser in his Life of King Alfred) they were able to launch attacks against Dyfed and Brycheiniog, no doubt using Ceredigion as a base for such raids. However, in 895 Anarawd is said to have attacked Ceredigion and Ystrad Tywi with English help. Some have suggested that it had passed into Scandinavian control by this point whereas others, maintaining Cadell held the kingdom, would see Anarawd's action as an attack on his brother.

  • Edgar and the Eight Kings, AD 973: Textus Et Dramatis Personae David E
    Edgar and the eight kings, AD 973: textus et dramatis personae David E. Thornton The purpose of the paper is to examine in detail the alleged submission by Welsh, Scottish and Scandinavian rulers to the English king Edgar at Chester in 973, and particularly the claim made in a number of Anglo- Norman chronicles that these rulers rowed Edgar up and down the River Dee as part of this submission. All relevant texts (both explicit descrip- tions and possible allusions) will be presented and analysed, and the identities of the Celtic and Scandinavian rulers will be considered. The paper will argue that the rowing episode is a post-Conquest fictional embellishment based on earlier Old English material, and that the meet- ing at Chester in 973 was a `peace summit' rather than a straightforward submission. One of the more colourful episodes in the relations of tenth-century English kings with their Celtic neighbours is the submission of various Scottish, Welsh and Scandinavian rulers to Edgar `Paci®cus' at Chester, shortly after his coronation as king of England at Bath on Whit Sunday (11 May) 973. Accounts from the twelfth century and later state that these rulers not only submitted to Edgar's lordship but also rowed him up and down the River Dee. Modern scholarly opinion on this episode has varied: while some historians have denied that the accounts of the submission in 973 had any basis in fact, others have accepted them as wholly historical.1 I propose to re-examine the submission of 973 by presenting all the texts (both pre- and post-Conquest) which refer to it and discussing the identity of the kings who allegedly took part.
