Notes and Documents 286 SOGEB OF WENDOVEB April Notes and Documents. Roger of Wendover and the Coggeshall Chronicle. Downloaded from KALFH, abbot of Coggeshall from 1207 until his resignation in* 1218, is said' to have begun his share of the monastic chronicle •with the account of the capture of the Holy Cross (1187). He took a special interest in the stories which came from the Holy Land, and his narrative is very valuable. It tells us what http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ Englishmen at home knew of the third crusade. The captivity of Eichard gave Ralph a fresh opportunity, for Anselm, the royal chaplain, brought the report of an eye-witness, which was inserted in the new chronicle. The personal history of the king is the central theme during these years. A period which finds a unity and completeness outside England, in which other English and even European events are of secondary importance, closes with by guest on August 11, 2015 Richard's return from captivity and Count John's submission in 1194. Now it is significant that just here, after a supplementary account of the Saracens in Spain, the ink and style of writing change in the original manuscript. Down to this point, with the exception of a few corrections and additions the manuscript and all its various alterations are the work of the same scribe. The entries under the year 1195 are in another hand.1 It would be quite in accord with monastic usage if copies of this earlier portion were sent elsewhere. Such was the case, for example, with Robert of Torigny's chronicle. And when we turn to Roger of Wendover, who borrowed largely from Coggeshall, we find that his extracts end exactly at this place, with the account of the Saracens in 1 On a pa#e inserted in the Cottonian MS. (ed. J. Stevenson, pp. 162-8), a. 1207 obiit domnus Thomas, abbas quintus dt Cogeshal, cui tuccessit domnus Radulfus, monaehus eiusdem loci, qui hanc chronicam a captions Sanctat Crucis usque ad annum undecimum Benrici regis tertii, filii regis Iohannis, descripsit The entries on this page cover the years 1206-1213, when Balph was evidently unable to go on with his work. It is difficult to estimate hli responsibility for the rest; the Cottonian MS (Vesp. D. x.) which is accepted as the first or autograph is written in different hands and is fall of corrections. * See Stevenson's note (p. 67). The' writing changes again in 1198 (p. 89), and there is a decided change early in 1202 (p. 135). The existing St. Victor MS. breaks off in 1201, and does not resume ontil 1213. This manuscript is not a first copy, bat a note, hie deficit, is added at the point where it breaks off in the Cottonian MS. 1906 AND THE COGGESHALL CHRONICLE 287 Spain.8 After 1195 there are no long quotations from Goggeshall in the St. Albans chronicle, and the resemblances which Luard has pointed out in his edition of Matthew Paris do not seem to me to prove that Wendover used Coggeshall after that date. With these I shall deal later. It is natural that Wendover should rely upon a contemporary, who was somewhat older than himself, for these early years. Although he may be regarded as an original authority for Bichard's reign, in the sense that he probably remembered its events, he does not begin to write as an independent witness until 1201. Roger of Howden is still his mainstay in the first years of King John.4 But neither Boger of Howden nor Ralph de Diceto could give him snch a full and vivid account of Bichard's exciting, Downloaded from complicated story as he could find in the Coggeshall chronicle. The view that Boger of Wendover used an early copy of the Coggeshall manuscript for the years 1187 to 1195 gains support from the following considerations. Here and there Wendover seems to give older readings of the Goggeshall chronicle which http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ are erased in the Cottonian manuscript. The most striking in- stance is also of some historical importance. It refers to John's attempt to gain the kingdom in 1193. Wendover copies a passage from Goggeshall almost word for word under the rubric, Ut Iohannet, /rater regis, regmtm AngUae sibi subiugare voluerit. But there is one strange difference. R. COGGESHALL, p. 61. R.

Rex autem Philip- £oronari, ted Anglorum virtute pas &c laudabili fait impeditus. Rex Francorum PhUippus <fec. In the Coggeshall manuscript the inconsequent entry about the bishop of Bath is written by a ' different but coeval hand' upon an erasure of two lines.6 In Wendover the passage proceeds quite smoothly, and is otherwise an almost verbal repetition of Gogges- hall. Moreover the variation, with its reference to evil counsel, is (p. 129).. This looks as though the original of the St. Victor MS. was composed of different oopies. • Bog. Wendorer (Boll* Series), L 388-9. • See Hardy's remarks in his Descriptive Catalogue, m. xxrrii $qqn 317 tqq. Wendover, it is agreed, began his work after 1215, probably after 1280, and based the later part on the materials and compilations already existing at SI Albans (Hardy, pp. inil-xnvi; Madden's Introduction to Matthew Paris, Hutoria Anglorum). • Stevenson's note. If the second hand is really coeval we get an early date for the original of the St. Victor MS., lines the insertion about the bishop is not given there, although the erasure was made before this copy was written (Siitor. de France, xvili. 74). See below, p. 292 note 34. 288 ROGER OF WENDOVER April quite in accord with Coggeahall's other reflexions upon John's conduct, though more outspoken than was usual with. him. It •would fill about two lines in the Cottonian original. Two other cases deal with the same theme, John's relations with Eichafd. Nearly the whole of Coggeshall's account of the crusade, from Richard's quarrel with the French king to his capture, is copied by Wendover. He uses his authority freely and omits a good deal. At times he gives additions which had been made to the Coggeshall chronicle. Thus Anselm'B account of Eichard's capture, which is a later insertion in Goggeshall, is also "found in Wendover.8 At times, on the contrary, we are forced to believe that some of the Coggeshall additions and corrections were Downloaded from made after the copy used by Wendover. Thus the latter omits a page inserted in a different and larger hand by Coggeshall.7 And in a passage more faithfully copied than usual comes another Variant reading, again an accusation against John. http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ E.

Again, the Coggeshall variant8 is written upon an erasure, while Wendover's text asserts John's treachery. Taken by itself this instance might be regarded as an illustration of the relentless hatred of John, which became traditional at St. Albans. Wendover would then brush aside the excuse of Longchamp's excesses. But the other instances made it even more "likely that Coggeshall added the excuse later. Wendover's reading is of about the same length as the erasure; and, it should be noted, the later chronicler was not in the habit of tampering in this way with his authority. He did not alter facts in passages which he quoted textually; and if he wished to copy some statement, even in the middle of a narrative taken from another source, he generally used the words of his authority. It is with reflective or narrative passages written in general terms that he took liberties. He loved to make changes in such cases, though he never altered the sense. The following passages illustrate both his exactness and his * Coggeshall, p. 54; Wendover, i. 218. ' Coggeshall, pp. 44-6; Wendover, L 215.

A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GiLA.DUATE SCHOOL IN PARTLVL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY 'B J <^n5w Introductory LITTLE less than one hundred years after the death of King John, a Scottish Prince John changed his name, upon his accession to L the and at the request of his nobles, A throne to avoid the ill omen which darkened the name of the English king and of John of France. A century and a half later, King John of England was presented in the first English historical play as the earliest English champion and martyr of that Protestant religion to which the spectators had newly come. The interpretation which thus depicted him influenced in Shakespeare's play, at once the greatest literary presentation of King John and the source of much of our common knowledge of English history. In spite of this, how- ever, the idea of John now in the mind of the person who is no student of history is nearer to the conception upon which the old Scotch nobles acted. According to this idea, John is weak, licentious, and vicious, a traitor, usurper and murderer, an excommunicated man, who was com- pelled by his oppressed barons, with the Archbishop of Canterbury at their head, to sign Magna Charta.

  • King John and Arthur of Brittany
    1909 659 Downloaded from King John and Arthur of Brittany FTER studying, in the order of their composition, the authori- ties which refer to or discuss the death of Arthur and the http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ Aalleged condemnation of King John by his peers in the French court, I have been led to feel considerable doubt concerning the orthodox view on the subject. That view is the negative con- clusion reached by M. Bemont in his well-known thesis nearly a quarter of a century ago. With one important exception—M. Guilhiermoz—every scholar who has gone over the evidence since M. B6mont published his thesis, has agreed with the master.1 And, indeed, every student of the period must feel that his opinion, at University of Tennessee ? Knoxville Libraries on August 19, 2015 whatever it may be, owes almost everything to the preliminary collection and criticism of the evidence by M. Bemont. In the following pages I haye not hesitated to leave unnoticed a good deal of the discussion, including the juridical arguments of M. Guilhiermoz. I have simply reviewed the evidence in the order, first, in which it became known to contemporaries, and secondly, of its composition. The chief conclusions at which the paper arrives may be thus summarised, in addition to the fact that no con- temporary official documents before those of 1216 refer to the con- demnation of King John :— 1. There was no certainty in contemporary knowledge of how Arthur died, but it does not follow that John was not condemned. What evidence there is, apart from the chronicle of Margam, goes to show that he was condemned, rather than the reverse.

  • Crusades, Martyrdoms, and the Jews of Norman England, 1096-1190
    Crusades, Martyrdoms, and the Jews of Norman England, 1096-1190 BY ROBERT C. STACEY A connection between crusading and anti-Jewish violence was forged in 1096, first in northern France, and then, most memorably, in the cataclysmic events of the Rhineland. Thereafter, attacks on Jews and Jewish communities became a regulär feature of the cru­ sading movement, despite the efforts of ecclesiastical and secular authorities to prevent them. The Second Crusade saw renewed assaults in the Rhineland and northern France. In the Third Crusade, assaults in the Rhineland recurred, but the worst violence this time oc­ curred in England, where something on the order of 10% of the entire Jewish Community in England perished in the massacres of 1189­1190. After the 1190s, however, direct mob violence by crusaders against Jews lessened. Although Crusades would continue to pro­ voke anti­Jewish hostility, no further armed assaults on Jewish communities, on the scale of those that took place between 1096 and 1190, would accompany the thirteenth Century 1 Crusades ^. The connection we are attempting to explain, between crusading and armed at­ tacks on Jewish communities, is thus distinctly a phenomenon of the twelfth Century ­ provided, of course, that we may begin our twelfth Century in 1096. Attempts to analyze this connection between crusading and anti­Jewish assaults have generally focused on the First Crusade. This is understandable, and by no means misguid­ ed. Thanks to the work of Jonathan Riley­Smith, Robert Chazan, Jeremy Cohen, Yisrael Yuval, Ivan Marcus, Kenneth Stow and others, we now understand far more about the background, nature, and causes of the events of 1096 than we did a generation ago.

  • Notes and Documents Downloaded from the Letters of Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine to Pope Celestine III
    78 LETTERS OF ELEANOR OF AQUITAINE Jan. Notes and Documents Downloaded from The Letters of Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine to Pope Celestine III. OP all the perils which beset the unwary historian none is more insidious than the rhetorical exercise masquerading in the guise of http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ an historical letter; it deceives only the more effectually because it was written with no thought of deception, and is often close enough to fact and accurate enough in form to mislead all but the most minute and laborious of critics. The present article is an attempt to follow up the suggestion of M. Charles Bemont that the three letters from Eleanor of Aquitaine to Pope Celestine III, printed by Eymer in the Foedera, are rhetorical studies of this nature. at Emory University on August 24, 2015 The letters in question purport to be addressed by Queen Eleanor to the pope, imploring his intervention on behalf of her son, Richard I, then a prisoner in the hands of the emperor Henry VI. Not only has their authenticity been accepted without question, but bibliographers have derived from them Eleanor's title to a place in the company of royal and noble authors,1 while historians have built up on them a theory of the part played by the queen mother in the release of the captive king. Finding the letters to Celestine HI under Eleanor's name, the modern historians of the twelfth century have connected them with a state- ment made by Roger of Hoveden to the effect that in the year 1198 the pope wrote to the clergy of England, ut imperator et totvm ipsius regnum subiicerentur anathemati, nisi rex Angliae celerius liberaretur a eaptione iltixw.* The editors of the Recueil des Historiens de France * mention Eleanor's letters and then quote Hoveden, leaving the connexion to be inferred.

  • Accepted Manuscript
    English (and European) Royal Charters: from Reading to reading Nicholas Vincent University of East Anglia What follows was first delivered as a lecture ‘off the cuff’ in November 2018, in circumstances rather different from those in which, writing this in January 2021, I now set down an extended text. In the intervening two and a bit years, Brexit has come, and gone. The Covid virus has come, but shows no immediate sign of going. When I lectured in 2018, although the edition of The Letters and Charters of King Henry II was in press, the publishers were still working to produce proofs. These were eventually released in December 2019, ensuring that I spent the entire period of Covid lockdown, from March to December 2020 correcting and re-correcting 4,200 proof pages. The first 3,200 of these were published, in six stout volumes, at the end of December 2020.1 A seventh volume, of indexes, should appear in the spring of 2021, leaving an eighth volume, the ‘Introduction’, for completion and publication later this year. All told, these eight volumes assemble an edition of 4,640 items, derived from 286 distinct archival repositories: the largest such assembly of materials ever gathered for a twelfth-century king not just of England but of any other realm, European or otherwise. In a lecture delivered at the University of Reading, as a part of a symposium intended to honour one of Reading’s more distinguished former professors, I shall begin with the debt that I and the edition owe to Professor Sir James (henceforth ‘Jim’) Holt.2 It was Jim, working from Reading in the early 1970s, who struck the spark from which this great bonfire of the vanities was lit.
