League of the Public Weal, 1465 League of the Public Weal, 1465 It is not necessary to hope in order to undertake, nor to succeed in order to persevere. —Charles the Bold Dear Delegates, Welcome to WUMUNS 2018! My name is Josh Zucker, and I am excited to be your director for the League of the Public Weal. I am currently a junior studying Systems Engineering and Economics. I have always been interested in history (specifically ancient and medieval history) and politics, so Model UN has been a perfect fit for me. Throughout high school and college, I’ve developed a passion for exciting Model UN weekends, and I can’t wait to share one with you! Louis XI, known as the Universal Spider for his vast reach and ability to weave himself into all affairs, is one of my favorite historical figures. His continual conflicts with Charles the Bold of Burgundy and the rest of France’s nobles are some of the most interesting political struggles of the medieval world. Louis XI, through his tireless work, not only greatly transformed the monarchy but also greatly strengthened France as a kingdom and set it on its way to becoming the united nation we know today. This committee will transport you to France as it reinvents itself after the Hundred Years War. Louis XI, the current king of France, is doing everything in his power to reform and reinvigorate the French monarchy. Many view his reign as tyranny. You, the nobles of France, strive to keep the monarchy weak. For that purpose, you have formed the League of the Public Weal. The league is your way to unite the great dukes, counts, and other nobles of France in order to protect your own interests. Your task will not be easy. The king is working meticulously to gather gold, allies, and power. Louis has strong alliances with the Swiss, Milan, and Savoy among others. He is immensely popular with the common folk of France. Louis has spent the first years of his reign, as well as his time as Dauphin, building up a stable treasury, bureaucracy, and army. Will you work together to keep the king in check or will you allow the Universal Spider to ascend to utter dominance? If you have any questions, concerns, or just want to know more about the committee, feel free to email me at [email protected].

We speak to you as your brothers and allies. It has become obvious to us, and assuredly to many of you, that the King has broken with precedent and tradition too many times. It is clear that Louis XI intends to eclipse regional power with the power of the French Crown. Our positions and familial estates are at risk. If we do not unite soon, the French nobility will be nothing more than a title. In response to the King’s actions we, Charles, Duke of Berry, Francis II, Duke of Brittany, and John II, Duke of Bourbon, have, in the year of our lord 1465, formed the League of the Public Weal. The goal of this league is to confront and depose Louis XI and to elevate his princely brother, Charles, Duke of Berry, to the throne of France. We must unite under the banner of the League of the Public Weal to protect our status and offices against Louis XI. The threat of the king cannot be taken lightly as every move he has made since his coronation four years ago has been taken to drain the nobility of their rightful power and prestige. He has excluded us from his council meetings and we hold no sway in his court. He bashes tradition at every opportunity, and we are sure that we have only seen the beginning of his plan. If left unchecked, Louis’ ambition will run us all out of power. We must put aside our own differences and squabbles in order to be that check on Louis’s ambition. If met with a united noble front, Louis will not be able to simple assert his will. He is a dangerous monarch and one that must be dealt with by a noble hand. If we work together, we can arise from any conflict with Louis victorious and more powerful than we were under Charles VII, his good father. Although many of you in this League will have personal command of provinces and armies, this war cannot be won by one man. Personal ambition must be put aside for the sake of France and if this council succeeds all of you will go down in history as the saviors of nobility. 5 Will you join us and bring the Nobles of France back to the forefront of French politics? Will you stand up for your position and defend it, to the death if necessary? Will you fight the tyranny of Louis XI? Historical Background The King Charles IV of France died without a male heir in 1328, ending the Hundred Capetian dynasty of French kings. With the end of that noble lineage, France found itself in a succession crisis. The two candidates for the throne were Edward Years War III “The Black Prince” of England (Charles’ nephew via his sister, Isabella) and Philip of Valois (Charles’ cousin and the grandson of Phillip III of France). Edward III was the closest relation to Charles, but because his connection to the throne came from a woman, many viewed it as illegitimate. In this time, women could not ascend to the French throne themselves. Philip eventually was chosen as king by the nobles of France and became Philip VI. While upset, Edward III accepted Philip VI as the king of France and in 1329 payed homage for his French territories, although in an act of protest Edward wore his sword and crown, contrary to French custom. Since 1066, the kings of England controlled some amount of French territory. Primary among these holdings was the powerful Duchy of Normandy on France’s northern coast, the home and former seat of the famed William the Conqueror. Over the years due to succession, politics, and war the English kings gained and lost much land. By 1330, the English crown also controlled the Duchy of Gascony in south-western France. Tensions were rising between the kingdoms of France and England. In 1326 Charles IV renewed the Franco-Scot alliance and threw a wrench into Edward III’s plans to invade Scotland. A decade later, Philip VI of France scrapped plans for a crusade and moved a joint Franco-Scottish fleet to the English Channel. Edward responded by sending an army to the region of Guyenne in Gascony. Angered at the military movement in lands he considered properly French, Philip VI legally revoked Edward III’s right to hold the southern provinces. Edward retaliated by reviving his legal claim to the crown of France. The Hundred Years War had begun. The English won many victories early on in the war, and in 1356 the French king John II was captured at the battle of Poitiers. During this time the Black Death hit France, killing anywhere from a third to half of the French population. In 1360 the Treaty of Calais was signed which gave a significantly enlarged Guyenne independence and Edward III gave up his claim to the French crown alongside some other captured French territory. In 1364, John II died in London and his son Charles, who had been acting as regent since his capture, became Charles V of France. Many in the enlarged Guyenne who were unhappy with the new English rule refused to pay a new tax and appealed to Charles V for support. Charles V summoned the Black Prince of England and the lords of Guyenne to Paris to hear the case. The Black Prince responded that he would only go to Paris with sixty 6 thousand men behind him. The French King did not take kindly to such threats of invasion. The Hundred Years War resumed. Charles V declared that the English possessions in Frances were forfeited, and Edward III revived his claim to the throne of France. The war continued on and off over the following decades, exhausting both England and France. In Early Phase England, the taxes raised to pay of the for the war caused much unrest Hundred and eventually led to a peasant revolt. France faced plague, YearsImage WarCredit: Wikimedia Commons economic recession, and widespread destruction. Throughout the war, bands of mercenaries, known as ecorcheurs, would work for the French crown during the campaigning season and pillage the French countryside the rest of the year. The tax base of France was shrinking as more and more money was needed to fight England. In 1380 Charles V died and his son Charles VI succeeded him as King of France. In 1392 Charles VI descended into madness and was placed under the regency of Philip the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, and Louis of Valois, Duke of Orleans. This opened the floodgates to decades of struggles between nobles over the right to govern in the King’s stead. It was a time of rumors, insults, kidnappings, and even assassinations between the Dukes of Burgundy, Orleans, Armagnac, Brittany, Berry, and Bourbon.

  • Paris History Early History Julius Caesar Conquered Paris in 52 BC It
    Paris History Early History Julius Caesar conquered Paris in 52 B.C. It was then a fishing village, called Lutetia Parisiorum (the Parisii were a Gallic tribe), on the Île de la Cité. Under the Romans the town spread to the left bank and acquired considerable importance under the later emperors. The vast catacombs under Montparnasse and the baths (now in the Cluny Mus.) remain from the Roman period. Legend says that St. Denis, first bishop of Paris, was martyred on Montmartre (hence the name) and that in the 5th cent. St. Geneviève, the patron saint of Paris, preserved the city from destruction by the Huns. On several occasions in its early history Paris was threatened by barbarian and Norman invasions, which at times drove the inhabitants back to the Île de la Cité. Clovis I and several other Merovingian kings made Paris their capital; under Charlemagne it became a center of learning. In 987, Hugh Capet, count of Paris, became king of France. The Capetians firmly established Paris as the French capital. The city grew as the power of the French kings increased. In the 11th cent. the city spread to the right bank. During the next two centuries—the reign of Philip Augustus (1180–1223) is especially notable for the growth of Paris—streets were paved and the city walls enlarged; the first Louvre (a fortress) and several churches, including Notre-Dame, were constructed or begun; and the schools on the left bank were organized into the Univ. of Paris. One of them, the Sorbonne, became a fountainhead of theological learning with Albertus Magnus and St.

  • Millet Oppidum English
    Château de Millet just situated outside the town of Eauze in the Gers. Devoted to mixed farming and the production of Armagnac, the estate today has 50 hectares of vines for the production of Côtes de Gascogne wines « Domaine de Millet ». The vines enjoy a north westernly position on the green hills of Eauze where the soil alternates between clay limestone and the sandy soils known as 'sables fauves'. Francis Dèche, the proprietor, who follows in the footsteps of five generations has a policy of quality : traditional grape varieties, vineyard cultivation with respect to the environment and constant development in the methods and means of vinification. With his daughter Laurence, who joined him in 1999, they sell a full and varied range that are just waiting to be discovered ! At Millet, the land and its relief tells a story of the history of man . The ruins of a pre-roman oppidum, the currencies and the amphoras discovered near to the vineyard are witnesses of the past. Before building the town of st Elusa in the 1 Century of this era, known today as Eauze, the Elusate people that lived here, learnt how to cultivate vines and appreciate wine from the Romans. OPPIDUM 2007 50% chardonnay, 50% sauvignon The vinification The two grape varieties are vinified separately then blended together and kept in tanks for 6 months. This wine is very original in style with a multitude of nuances that merge to give a surprising floral and spicy flavour . Tasting Notes -White mid dry wine, light in colour with golden yellow highlights -Intense and seductive bouquet with a concentration in floral notes, exotic fruits and soft spice.

  • The Calamity of Violence: Reading the Paris Massacres of 1418
    The Calamity of Violence: Reading the Paris Massacres of 1418 Michael Sizer University of Minnesota, Twin Cities The biggest problem facing the historian of medieval political culture is how to access the consciousness and beliefs of those outside the nobility and clergy. Even when members of the lower orders are given voice in sources, such as judicial records, or when their actions are described at length in chronicle accounts of revolt or town ceremonies, this version of their experience is mediated not only by the fact that it passes through a text, but further by the fact that this text was written by someone from a literate minority, generally from a position of power and often hostile to the concept of an active and politically engaged populace.1 Many scholars are content to allow elite expressions of a political ideal to stand in for the whole of medieval society and, thereby, incorrectly characterize the commons as essentially apolitical or as eager participants in the maintenance of the authoritarian ideology that undergirded 1 In this paper, I use phrases such as the commons, lower orders, and populace almost interchangeably. This practice reflects a vagueness present in the medieval sources themselves, in which the definition of who constitutes the common people shifts according to the context, sometimes including the urban patriciate and sometimes not.

  • Of a Princely Court in the Burgundian Netherlands, 1467-1503 Jun
    Court in the Market: The ‘Business’ of a Princely Court in the Burgundian Netherlands, 1467-1503 Jun Hee Cho Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Jun Hee Cho All rights reserved ABSTRACT Court in the Market: The ‘Business’ of a Princely Court in the Burgundian Netherlands, 1467-1503 Jun Hee Cho This dissertation examines the relations between court and commerce in Europe at the onset of the modern era. Focusing on one of the most powerful princely courts of the period, the court of Charles the Bold, duke of Burgundy, which ruled over one of the most advanced economic regions in Europe, the greater Low Countries, it argues that the Burgundian court was, both in its institutional operations and its cultural aspirations, a commercial enterprise. Based primarily on fiscal accounts, corroborated with court correspondence, municipal records, official chronicles, and contemporary literary sources, this dissertation argues that the court was fully engaged in the commercial economy and furthermore that the culture of the court, in enacting the ideals of a largely imaginary feudal past, was also presenting the ideals of a commercial future. It uncovers courtiers who, despite their low rank yet because of their market expertise, were close to the duke and in charge of acquiring and maintaining the material goods that made possible the pageants and ceremonies so central to the self- representation of the Burgundian court. It exposes the wider network of court officials, urban merchants and artisans who, tied by marriage and business relationships, together produced and managed the ducal liveries, jewelries, tapestries and finances that realized the splendor of the court.
