He inherited the throne of Henry IV in Henry IV his mother's death. Bartholomew's Day massacre. He later led Protestant forces against the royal army. As Head of the House of Bourbon, Henry was " first prince of the blood ". He initially kept the Protestant faith the only French king to do so Henry IV had to fight against the Catholic Leaguewhich denied that he could wear France's crown as a Protestant. After four years of stalemate, he converted to Catholicism to obtain mastery over his kingdom reportedly saying, "Paris is well worth a mass. As a pragmatic politician in the parlance of the time, a politiquehe displayed an unusual religious tolerance for the era. Notably, he promulgated the Edict of Nantes Henry IV, which guaranteed religious liberties to Protestants, thereby effectively ending the Wars of Religion. Considered a usurper by some Catholics and a traitor by some Protestants, Henry became Henry IV of at least 12 assassination attempts. Henry IV his reign, [5] the French colonization of the Americas truly began with Henry IV foundation of the colonies of Acadia and Canada at Port- Royal and Quebecrespectively. He was celebrated in the Henry IV song " Vive le roi Henri " which later became an anthem for the French monarchy during the reigns of his successors and in Voltaire 's Henriade. On 9 Juneupon his mother's death, the year-old became King of Navarre. On 24 August, the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre began in Paris. Several thousand Protestants who had come to Paris for Henry's wedding were killed, as well as thousands more throughout the country in the days that followed. Henry narrowly escaped death thanks to the help of his wife and his promise to convert to Catholicism. He was forced to live at the court of France, but he escaped in early On 5 February of that year, he formally abjured Catholicism at Tours and rejoined the Protestant forces in the military conflict. Catherine held the regency for nearly thirty Henry IV. Since Henry of Navarre was a Huguenot, the issue was not considered settled in many quarters of the country, and France was plunged into a phase of the Wars of Religion known as the War of the Three Henries. The third was Henry I, Duke of Guisewho pushed for complete suppression of the Huguenots and had much support among Catholic loyalists. Political disagreements among the parties set off a series of campaigns and counter-campaigns that culminated in the Battle of Coutras. However, the populace was horrified and rose against him. The title of the king was Henry IV longer recognized in several cities; his power was limited to Blois, Tours, and the surrounding districts. The two kings were united by a common interest—to win France from the Catholic League. Catholic royalist nobles also rallied to the king's Henry IV. With this combined force, the two kings marched to Paris. The morale of the city was low, and even the Spanish ambassador believed the city could not hold out longer than a fortnight. The Catholic League, however, strengthened by support from outside the country—especially from Spain—was strong Henry IV to prevent a universal recognition of his new title. The Pope excommunicated Henry and declared him devoid of any right to inherit the crown. He set about winning Henry IV kingdom by military conquest, aided by English money and German troops. Henry's Catholic Henry IV Charles, Cardinal de Bourbon was proclaimed king Henry IV the League, but the Cardinal was Henry's prisoner at the time. When Cardinal de Bourbon died inthe League could not agree on a new candidate. In Henry IV of such opposition, Philip indicated that princes of the House of Lorraine Henry IV be acceptable to him: the Duke of Guise; a son of the Duke of Lorraine; and the son of the Duke of Mayenne. The Spanish ambassadors selected the Duke of Guise, to the Henry IV of the League. However, at that moment of seeming victory, the envy of the Henry IV of Mayenne was aroused, and he blocked the proposed election of a king. The Parlement of Paris also upheld the Salic law. They argued that if the French accepted natural hereditary succession, as proposed by the Spaniards, and accepted a Henry IV as Henry IV queen, then the ancient claims of the English kings would be Henry IV, and the monarchy of centuries past would be nothing but an illegality. Mayenne Henry IV angered that he had not been consulted prior to this admonishment, but yielded, since their aim was not contrary to his present views. He was said to have declared that Paris vaut bien une messe "Paris is well worth Henry IV mass"[21] [22] [23] although there is some doubt whether he said this, or whether the statement was attributed to him by his contemporaries. In he issued the Edict of Nanteswhich granted circumscribed toleration to the Huguenots. Henry's first marriage was not a happy one, and the couple remained childless. After Henry IV became king of France, it was of the utmost importance that he provide an heir to the crown to avoid the problem of a disputed succession. Henry's councillors strongly opposed this idea, but the matter was resolved unexpectedly by Gabrielle's sudden death in the early hours of 10 Aprilafter Henry IV had given birth to a premature and stillborn son. For the royal entry of Marie into Avignon on 19 Novemberthe citizens bestowed on Henry the title of the Henry IV Gaulois "Gallic Hercules"justifying the extravagant flattery with a genealogy that traced the origin of the House of Navarre to a nephew of Hercules ' son Hispalus. He and Sully protected forests from further devastation, built Henry IV system of tree-lined highways, and constructed bridges and canals. The King restored Paris as a great city, with the Pont Neufwhich still stands Henry IV, constructed Henry IV the river Seine to connect the Right and Left Banks of the city. More Henry IV metres long and thirty-five Henry IV wide, this huge addition was built along the bank of the Henry IV River. At the time it was the longest edifice of its kind in the world. King Henry IV, a promoter of the arts by all classes of people, Henry IV hundreds of artists and craftsmen to live and work on the building's lower floors. Henry IV tradition continued for another two hundred years, Henry IV Emperor Napoleon I banned Henry IV. The art and architecture of his reign have become known as the " Henry IV style " since that time. France laid claim to New France now Canada. The conflict was Henry IV resolved until after the Thirty Years' War. During Henry's struggle for the crown, Spain had been the principal backer of the Catholic League, and it tried to thwart Henry. Under the Duke of Parmaan army from the Spanish Netherlands intervened in against Henry and foiled his siege of Paris. Another Spanish army helped the nobles opposing Henry to win the Battle of Craon against his troops in After Henry IV coronation, the war continued because there was an official tug-of-war between the French and Spanish states, but after victory at the Siege of Amiens in September the Peace of Vervins was signed Henry IV This enabled him to turn his attention to Savoy, with which he also had been fighting. Their conflicts were settled in the Treaty of Lyon ofwhich mandated territorial exchanges between France and the Duchy of Savoy. It was widely believed that in Henry was preparing to go to war against the Holy Roman Empire. The preparations were terminated by his assassination, however, and the subsequent rapprochement with Henry IV under the regency of Marie de' Medici. Even before Henry's accession to the French throne, the French Huguenots were in contact with Aragonese Moriscos in plans against the Habsburg government of Spain in the s. It granted numerous advantages to France in the Ottoman Empire. During the reign of Henry IV, various enterprises were set up to develop trade with faraway lands. No ships were sent, however, until Henry IV Henry IV proved to be a man of vision Henry IV courage. As king, he adopted policies and undertook projects to improve the lives of all subjects, which made him one of the country's most popular rulers ever. Henry is said to have originated the oft-repeated phrase " a chicken in every pot ". If God grants me life, I will make it so that no plowman in my realm will lack the means to have a chicken in his pot on Sunday! This statement epitomises the peace and relative prosperity which Henry brought to France after decades of religious war, and demonstrates how well he understood the plight of the French worker and peasant farmer. This real concern for the living conditions of the "lowly" population—who in the final analysis provided the economic basis for the power of the king and the great nobles—was perhaps without parallel among the kings of France. Following his death Henry would be remembered fondly by most of the population. He was also a great philandererfathering many children by a number of mistresses. Henry was nicknamed "the Great" Henri le Grandand in France is also called le bon roi Henri "the good Henry IV Henry" Henry IV le vert galant "The Henry IV Gallant", for his numerous mistresses.

The Faux pas of a Vert Galant: The Historiography of Henry IV's Military Leadership Annette Finley-Croswhite* Old Dominion University Henry IV is one of the few historical figures whose military reputation rests on the fact that he operated successfully during the course of his life at all definable levels of military command: as a soldier and partisan leader, a battlefield tactician, a campaigner, and a national strategist. He fought in over two hundred engagements, never lost a battle, and was the major victor in four landmark battles. Nevertheless, until recently most judgments by French, British, and American historians, scholars like Pierre de Vaissière, Sir Charles Oman, Lynn Montross, and David Buisseret, have portrayed Henry IV not as a great military commander, but as a risk-taking opportunist, always the Vert Galant in the guise of a skilled tactician and cavalryman.

Taylor Professor Ignacio Navarrete Fall 2013 Abstract The Shaping of Empire: History Writing and Imperial Identity in Early Modern Spain by Michael Andrew Gonzales Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Thomas Dandelet, Chair Previous studies on politics and history writing in early modern Europe have focused on how early modern monarchs commissioned official royal histories that served to glorify the crown and its achievements. These works discuss the careers of royal historians and their importance at court, and examine how the early modern crown controlled history writing. In the case of Spain, scholars have argued that Spanish monarchs, particularly Philip II, strictly controlled the production of history writing by censoring texts, destroying and seizing manuscripts, and at times restricting history writing to authorized historians. Modern scholars have largely avoided analyzing the historical studies themselves, and have ignored histories written by non-royal historians. My dissertation broadens the discussion by examining a variety of histories written by royal historians and authors from outside of the court, including clerics, bureaucrats, and military officers, motivated to write histories by their concern over Spain’s recent imperial policies and campaigns.

This study of members of the wider Montmorency family in the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries demonstrates the financial and political benefits derived from female benefice holding. Abbey stewards and surintendants of aristocratic households collaborated in the administration of religious revenues. Montmorency control of Sainte TriniteT, the Abbaye aux Dames, Caen, for over a century was associated with attempts to assert political influence in Normandy. Conflict ostensibly over religious reform could have a political dimension. Yet reform could be pursued vigorously by those originally cloistered for mercenary or political reasons. ecent studies of early modern nuns have emphasised the importance of family strategy in their experience. Dynasticism Rwithin convents and enforced monachisation of women to preserve family inheritances are two aspects of this strategy evident in early modern Italy, particularly Tuscany; in sixteenth-century France, the importance of female networks centred on abbeys has been noted as a significant dimension of aristocratic patronage. Such phenomena were not incompatible with reform in female religious orders which, in the context of early modern France, embraces both the impact of Protestan- " tism and renewal of Catholic devotion.

    The Marlowe Society The French Connection (Part 2): Research Journal - Volume 07 - 2010 On the Trail of Jacques Le Doux Online Research Journal Article C.W.H.Gamble The French Connection (Part 2) On the Trail of Jacques Le Doux Introduction This article is the sequel to an essay first published in 2009 in the Online Research Journal of the Marlowe Society (Vol.6) 1, under the title The French Connection: New Leads on Monsieur Le Doux . In view of the extent of the new documentary evidence here presented, and the chronological overlap, the reader may wish to refer to the previous article for additional information on the links between “Le Doux” and Christopher Marlowe, and indeed on Marlowe’s claim to the authorship of the works of “Shake-speare”. I should begin by giving a brief outline of the background to the historical events and negotiations which are discussed in both articles, with apologies to those readers for whom this is already familiar ground: 1. In 1568 the United Provinces of the Netherlands rose in revolt against Spanish Habsburg rule. Their cause gained the open support of Queen Elizabeth during the mid-1580s; England provided both funds and military forces for the continuance of the war against Spanish occupation, a lengthy conflict which was not resolved until 1609, when peace was made with Spain. The Earl of Essex, Robert Devereux, saw service in the Netherlands under the Earl of Leicester (1585-1586) and later, in 1591, led a force into France in support of King Henri IV against the Catholic League; Essex’s brother Walter was killed at the siege of Rouen.

  • Henry IV Makers of History
    Henry IV Makers of History By John S. C. Abbott KING HENRY IV MAKERS OF HISTORY Chapter I Childhood and Youth About four hundred years ago there was a small kingdom, spreading over the cliffs and ravines of the eastern extremity of the Pyrenees, called Navarre. Its population, of about five hundred thousand, consisted of a very simple, frugal, and industrious people. Those who lived upon the shore washed by the stormy waves of the Bay of Biscay gratified their love of excitement and of adventure by braving the perils of the sea. Those who lived in the solitude of the interior, on the sunny slopes of the mountains, or by the streams which meandered through the verdant valleys, fed their flocks, and harvested their grain, and pressed rich wine from the grapes of their vineyards, in the enjoyment of the most pleasant duties of rural life. Proud of their independence, they were ever ready to grasp arms to repel foreign aggression. The throne of this kingdom was, at the time of which we speak, occupied by Catharine de Fix . She was a widow, and all her hopes and affections were centered in her son Henry, an ardent and impetuous boy six or seven years of age, who was to receive the crown when it should fall from her brow, and transmit to posterity their ancestral honors. Ferdinand of Aragon had just married Isabella of Castile, and had thus united those two populous and wealthy kingdoms; and now, in the arrogance of power, seized with the pride of annexation, he began to look with a wistful eye upon the picturesque kingdom of Navarre.

    THE ANCESTRY OF GOVERNOR THOMAS DUDLEY FREDERICK LEWIS WEIS of DUBLIN, NEW HAMPSHIRE Fellow of the American Society of Genealogists and MRS. MINNIE SWEZEY ELMENDORF of BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA 1962 Printed by SIM'S PRESS, INC. Peterborough, New Harnp,hire, U.S. A. THE ANCESTRY OF GOVERNOR THOMAS DUDLEY PREFACE To Mrs. Minnie Swezey Elmendorf, of Beverly Hills, Cali­ fornia, is due the discovery of the male line of Governor Thomas Dudley of Massachusetts. This pedigree, to all intents and pur­ poses, has been lost for three centuries or more. It is so valuable to the whole Dudley family, both in England and America, that it deserves the gratitude of scores of descendants, genealogists and historians as ,vell. It may be that this pedigree has long been known to the College of Arms in London, but in the world at large, and especially in America, it now takes its proper place to the good fortune of this very eminent family. - FREDERICK L. \VEis With all the material concerning the male Dudley line, it seems extraordinary that no one in ~ ew England has heretofore discovered Governor Dudley's male ancestry. Those who came nearest to the solution believed as early as 1824, that the line came through the Duke of Northumberland, and Mr. George Adlard, in 1862, then possessed most of the vital links, though he too failed to reach the solution. For the entire line, see chart on page 20, at the end of this book. iii RUINS OF DUDLEY CASTLE, STAFFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND THE ANCESTRY OF GOVERNOR THOMAS DUDLEY There has long been a puzzle concerning the ancestry of Governor Thomas Dudley, one of the principal founders of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630.
