  • A Royal Crusade History: the Livre D'eracles and Edward IV's Exile In
    A Royal Crusade History: The Livre d’Eracles and Edward IV’s Exile in Burgundy Erin K. Donovan The English King Edward IV (1442-83) had throughout his reign many political, familial, and cultural connections with the Flanders-based court of Burgundy, headed at the time by Duke Charles the Bold. In 1468, King Edward arranged for his sister Margaret of York to marry Duke Charles of Burgundy. The same year he was inducted into Charles’s powerful Burgundian chivalric Order of the Golden Fleece and reciprocally inducted Charles into the English Order of the Garter. In 1470, he was forced into exile for five months when the Earl of Warwick, Richard Neville, placed the former King Henry VI back on the throne. After first unsuccessfully trying to find shelter in Calais, Edward landed in Holland where he was hospitably taken in by Burgundian nobleman Louis de Gruuthuse (also known as Louis de Bruges) at his home in The Hague, and afterwards in Flanders at Louis’s home in Bruges.1 Between 1470 and 1471, Edward was witness to and inspired by the flourishing Flemish culture of art and fashion, including the manuscript illuminations that his host Louis was beginning voraciously to consume at the time. While Edward was in exile he was penniless, and thus unable to commission works of art. However, after his victorious return to the throne in 1471 he had the full resources of his realm at his command again, and over time I would like to extend my deep thanks to the many participants of the British Library’s Royal Manuscripts Conference, held 12-13 December 2011, who provided me with fruitful suggestions to extend my paper’s analysis.

As followers in the Conqueror’s army the Wydeviles rose through service with the Mowbray family. If we accept the definition given by Crouch and Turner for a brief period of time the Wydeviles qualified as barons in the twelfth century. This position was not maintained. By the thirteenth century the family had split into two distinct branches. The senior line settled in Yorkshire while the junior branch settled in Northamptonshire. The junior branch of the family gradually rose to prominence in the county through service as escheator, sheriff and knight of the shire.

These texts, especially as they appear in their dense modern critical editions, seem superficially to be archetypal Jamesian “loose baggy monsters” tumbling accidentally and somewhat arbitrarily from one narrative phase to the other. Examined more closely, and in their manuscript context as rounded material artefacts, however, the narratives assume a more readily

  • Jean De Waurin and His Perception of the Turks in Anatolia in the Late Middle Ages
    International Journal of Business and Social Science Vol. 4 No. 16; December 2013 Medieval Perspectives: Jean de Waurin and His Perception of the Turks in Anatolia in the Late Middle Ages T. Tolga Gumus (Asist. Prof.) Mersin University Faculty of Science and Humanities Department of History Çiftlikköy Kampüsü Mersin/Turkey Abstract This article investigates Jean de Waurin’s perception of the Turks in his account of the expedition in Anatolia in fifteenth century. The first part gives a brief account of Jean de Waurin. The second part analyses in detail his perception of the Turks, his expedition to Anatolia and his reasons for writing his account of the crusade of Varna. Then, Waurin’s perspective about the Turks is compared with various views of some other sixteenth century accounts. By doing so, the differences and similarities of the European perception of the Turks of the two centuries in question are discussed. It is argued that Waurin saw the Turks firstly as an enemy and then as ‘the enemy of the Christian faith’. This study also discusses why Waurin wrote this account. The reason was that this account was a crusading propaganda. What Waurin was making in his expedition was clearly a ‘crusade’ and accordingly religious tone in his account is something to be noted. Key Words: Jean de Wavrin, Turks, Crusade of Varna, Humanist Crusading Propaganda, Walerin de Wavrin, European Perception of the Turks. 1. Introduction This paper discusses the reasons Wavrin wrote his account of the crusade of Varna and Walerin de Wavrin’s expedition into the Balkans, which was later published within his history of Britain and how he perceived and accordingly presented the Turks to the renaissance readers.
