ENGLAND and NORMANDY, 1204-1259 by Wendy B. Stevenson ENGLAND AND NORMANDY, 1204-1259 by Wendy B. Stevenson Vo 1urne I Submitted for the Degree of Ph.D. in the University of Leeds 1974 SUMMARY England and Normandy, 1204-1259 by Wendy B. Stevenson Submitted for the Degree of Ph.D. in the University of Leeds, 1974 In 1204, Normandy submitted to King Philip Augustus of France but the kings of England refused to acknowledge the loss of the duchy, or of the other Angevin possessions conquered by the French kings, until the Treaty of Paris of 1259- Apart from King John's grandiose attempt of 1214 to recover all the conquered provinces, no serious attempt was made by an English king between 1204 and 1259 to recover the duchy. Consequently, most modern historians tend to speak of the "loss of Normandy" in 1204 and the "formal" surrender of all English claims thereto in 1259 as if the events of the former date had effectively severed England and Normandy for ever. It is generally felt that on the whole the links with England were very soon forgotten and that after 1204 the duchy settled down quite happily under her new French masters who adopted a conciliatory policy t owa r d s her. This thesis questions the current orthodoxy as summarized above. It examines Anglo-Norman relations between 1204 and 1259 and reveals that strong ecclesiastical, economic and tenurial links continued to exist between England and Normandy throughout the period. Consideration is also given to the relations of the various sectors of Norman society with their new Capetian rulers and it is suggested that these were not as harmonious as previously supposed. Finally, an attempt is made to assess the political significance of these two factors as far as Anglo French relations were concerned. i TABLE OF CONTENTS p . i i i Bibliography and Abbreviations p. 1 I n t rod uct i on Chapter I: The Ecclesiastical Connection (i) The situation in 1204 (ii) Relations between the English kings and the Norman clergy, 1204-59 P • 5 3 (iii) Relations of the Norman Church with Philip Augustus, Louis VIII and Lo u i s IX p. 1 1 3 Chapter II: Commercial Relations (i) The position of the Norman towns and merchant classes in 1204 P. 137 (ii) The Norman towns and merchant classes under Capetian rule, 1204-59 p. 147 (iii) Anglo-Norman commercial relations, p. 170 1204-59 p. 199 Chapter III: Family and Tenurial Connections,__1 2 0 4- 59.

  • Isabelle Hainaut, Queen of France
    Pg 1 Isabelle of Hainaut Born: 5 Apr 1170 Valcenciennes, FRA Married: King Philippe II of France Died: 15 Mar 1190 Paris, FRA Parents: Baldwin V, Count of Hainaut & Countess Margaret of Flanders Isabelle of Hainaut (5 April 1170, Valenciennes - 15 March 1190, Paris) was queen consort of France. Isabelle was born in Valenciennes,on 5 April 1170 the daughter of Baldwin V, Count of Hainaut and Countess Margaret I of Flanders. She married King Philip II of France on 28 April 1180 at Bapaume and brought as her dowry the county of Artois. The marriage was arranged by her maternal uncle Count Philip of Alsace who was advisor to the King.[2] Isabelle was crowned consort of France at Saint Denis on 28 May 1180. As Baldwin V rightly claimed to be a descendant of Charlemagne, the chroniclers of the time saw in this marriage a union of the Carolingian and Capetian dynasties. Though she received extravagant praise from certain annalists, she failed to win the affections of Philip due to her inability to provide him with an heir. Meanwhile, King Philip in 1184, was waging war against Flanders, and angered at seeing Baldwin support his enemies, he called a council at Sens for the purpose of repudiating her. Robert, the king's uncle, successfully interposed. Finally, on 5 September 1187, she gave birth to the needed heir, the future King Louis VIII of France. Her second pregnancy, was extremely difficult; on 14 March 1190, Isabelle gave birth to twin sons. Due to complications in childbirth, Isabelle died the next day, and was buried in the cathedral of Notre Dame in Paris.

  • TO RUNNYMEDE VIA MERTON in Medieval Times Monasteries Acted As the News Media by Recording National Events of Their Time
    LIONEL GREEN sets out Merton Priory’s connections to the stirring events of 1066 and all that: TO RUNNYMEDE VIA MERTON In medieval times monasteries acted as the news media by recording national events of their time. Such annals provide narrative historians with details not recorded elsewhere. The Annals of Merton Priory still exist at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge (MS No 59 ff 151b-173a), with details of events to 1242. The most important section of the Annals refers to those of 1216 and 12171, which covers the period following the signing of Magna Carta, the death of King John and the Peace Conference at Kingston and Merton. ———————— On 13 July 1205 Hubert Walter, archbishop of Canterbury and canon of Merton Priory, died. The king was triumphant, for the primate had prevented him from launching an expedition to recover his lost lands on the continent. He chose the bishop of Norwich to be the new archbishop and assembled an army at Portsmouth. But the pope’s choice as archbishop was Stephen Langton. King John was outraged that his choice had been rejected and refused Langton entry into England as well as seizing church property. In 1207 England was laid under interdict by Innocent III and subsequently the king was excommunicated. For seven years the churches in England were closed and silent. Philip Augustus of France denounced the English king and threatened to invade. In 1213 John repented, accepted the pope’s desires and was absolved at Winchester. On 1 August Stephen Langton, the new primate, arrived at Merton Priory accompanied by the bishops of London, Ely and Lincoln.2 In the following year the interdict was lifted and John surrendered the kingdom to the pope and received it back as a papal fief.

  • Introduction
    Introduction The Other Voice [Monsieur de Voysenon] told [the soldiers] that in the past he had known me to be a good Catholic, but that he could not say whether or not I had remained that way. At that mo- ment arrived an honorable woman who asked them what they wanted to do with me; they told her, “By God, she is a Huguenot who ought to be drowned.” Charlotte Arbaleste Duplessis-Mornay, Memoirs The judge was talking about the people who had been ar- rested and the sorts of disguises they had used. All of this terrified me. But my fear was far greater when both the priest and the judge turned to me and said, “Here is a little rascal who could easily be a Huguenot.” I was very upset to see myself addressed that way. However, I responded with as much firmness as I could, “I can assure you, sir, that I am as much a Catholic as I am a boy.” Anne Marguerite Petit Du Noyer, Memoirs The cover of this book depicting Protestantism as a woman attacked on all sides reproduces the engraving that appears on the frontispiece of the first volume of Élie Benoist’s History of the Edict of Nantes.1 This illustration serves well Benoist’s purpose in writing his massive work, which was to protest both the injustice of revoking an “irrevocable” edict and the oppressive measures accompanying it. It also says much about the Huguenot experience in general, and the experience of Huguenot women in particular. When Benoist undertook the writing of his work, the association between Protestantism and women was not new.
