  • Ceremony and Conflict in Fifteenth-Century France: Lancastrian Ceremonial Entries Into French Towns, 1415-1431
    113 Ceremony and Conflict in Fifteenth-Century France: Lancastrian Ceremonial Entries into French Towns, 1415-1431 Neil Murphy he renewal of the Hundred Years' War by Henry V led to the rapid T expansion of Lancastrian power in northern France. Although England's military campaigns have been studied in great detail, historians have paid little attention to the Lancastrian monarchy's use of ceremony to establish its rule in France.! This article will principally focus on the ceremonial entry, which was a dynamic and versatile rite that could be adapted to suit the rapidly changing conditions engendered by Lancastrian successes in France. The ceremonial entry underwent a period of intense development in England and France during the later Middle Ages. Following the inclusion of multifaceted dramatic performances in England from 1377 and in France from 1380, entries became increasing complex (Kipling 6). A ceremonial entry was the moment at which a ruler took formal possession of a town, and these entries were used frequently in zones of persistent conflict, such as northern France, where towns regularly passed from one lord to another. Indeed, the Lancastrian rulers of France made at least twenty-three ceremonial entries in the sixteen years running from 1415 to 1431. This article will look at Lancastrian ceremonial entries during the period running from Henry V's invasion of France in August 1415 to his son's coronation at Paris in December 1431. It will provide a wider contextualisation of the Lancastrian monarchy's use of ceremony and relate the developments made to the form and function of the entry to the wider political and economic conditions created by war in northern France.

  • Soldiers' Wives in the Hundred Years
    Soldiers’ Wives in the Hundred Years War Anne Curry In January 2006 the Daily Telegraph reported the sale in New York of an eight- eenth-century gold box, embossed with the arms of the city, which had been presented along with the freedom of the city to Thomas Gage, commander-in- chief of the British Army in North America in 1773.1 At that point, the report continued, Gage was ‘deeply in love with his American wife’ – Margaret Kemble from New Brunswick – who had given him eleven children.2 Two years later, Gage was a ‘broken man … estranged from Margaret for ever after she put the land of her birth before her husband and handed his military secrets to Paul Revere’. Gage had planned to send 800 men to Concord with the aim of seizing two revolutionary leaders, Samuel Adams and John Hancock, and destroying the weapons which they had been building up at Lexington and Concord. But, being forewarned, Revere famously rode to advise them of Gage’s plan. The rest, as they say, is history. Gage immediately suspected his wife since, other than his fellow officer, she was the only person he had told of his plans. He banished her to England, and although he also returned home six months later, the couple never spoke again. Margaret Gage later ‘confided to a close friend that her feelings were those spoken by Lady Blanche in Shakespeare’s King John’: The sun’s overcast with blood; fair day adieu! Which is the side that I must go withal? I am with both … Whoever wins, on that side shall I lose.3 1 Daily Telegraph, Friday 20 January 2006, p.

Hudson Professor of History and Medieval Studies Thesis Supervisor/Honors Adviser Robert Edwards Professor of English and Comparative Literature Thesis Reader * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The beginning of the Hundred Years War came about from relentless conflict between France and England, with roots that can be traced the whole way to the 11th century, following the Norman invasion of England. These periods of engagement were the result of English nobles both living in and possessing land in northwest France. In their efforts to prevent further bloodshed, the monarchs began to engage in marriage diplomacy; by sending a young princess to a rival country, the hope would be that her native people would be unwilling to wage war on a royal family that carried their own blood. While this method temporarily succeeded, the tradition would create serious issues of inheritance, and the beginning of the last phase of the Hundred Years War, and the last act of success on the part of the English, the Treaty of Troyes, is the culmination of the efforts of the French kings of the early 14th century to pacify their English neighbors, cousins, and nephews. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1 Plantagenet Claim to France...................................................................................

  • Saint Joan Timeline Compiled by Richard Rossi
    1 Saint Joan Timeline Compiled by Richard Rossi A certain understanding of the historical background to Saint Joan is necessary to fully understand the various intricacies of the play. As an ocean of ink has been spilled by historians on Joan herself, I shall not delve too deeply into her history, keeping closely to what is relevant to the script. My dates, which may not necessarily match those that Shaw used, are the historically accepted dates; where there is discrepancy, I have notated. In some cases, I have also notated which characters refer to certain events in the timeline. There is a great deal of history attached to this script; the Hundred Years War was neither clean nor simple, and Joan was, as The Inquisitor says, “...crushed between these mighty forces, the Church and the Law.” 1st Century: Saint Peter founds the Catholic Church of Rome. (Warwick mentions St. Peter) 622: Establishment of Mohammad’s political and religious authority in Medina. (Cauchon mentions the prophet) 1215: The Waldensian movement, founded by Peter Waldo around 1170, is declared heretical at the Fourth Lateran Council. The movement had previously been declared heretical in 1184 at the Synod of Verona, and in 1211 80+ Waldensians were burned at the stake at Strausbourg. This was one of the earliest proto-Protestant groups and was very nearly destroyed. 1230’s: Establishment of the Papal Inquisition, which would later prosecute the trial against Joan of Arc. (Mentioned by Warwick. This is the same inquisition mentioned throughout the script) 1328: Charles IV of France dies without a male heir, ending the Capetian Dynasty and raising some very serious questions regarding the right of inheritance.

  • Joan of Arc As Prisonnière De Guerre1
    1 Joan of Arc as prisonnière de guerre1 Abstract Contrary to what has been previously claimed, the birth of the French term prisonnier de guerre dates back to long before the early seventeenth century. The corpus of documents which form the foundation of this article includes some sixty occurrences of the term (in French or Latin) over a period of more than a century, the earliest dating to 1357. In contrast with previous studies on the status of prisoners of war which have tended to rely on a modern conception of the term, this present investigation focuses on contemporary perceptions of those who were designated prisonniers de guerre in the later middle ages. The significance of this discussion is demonstrated in particular through the case of Joan of Arc, who, perhaps surprisingly, was considered a prisonnière de guerre by the English. In her case – which was by no means an exception to the general rule – the status of prisonnier de guerre derived from the property rights which her ‘master’ (or captor) enjoyed over her. It did not involve any protection of the prisoner her (or him) self. Contemporary debates around the status of prisonniers de guerre, when such questions were raised, were focused on the rights of the master. Perhaps is it more appropriate not to speak of the status prisoner of war but rather the status of the master of the prisoner of war. Keywords: Joan of Arc, Prisoner of war, Ransom, Property right, Combatant status 1 I would like to express my deep gratitude to Professor Anne Curry who provided generous and useful advice throughout the process of building up this argument.

Approximately the red line, with Lorraine as the tan county at the bottom right, and Champagne on the left. Lorraine: The Duchy of Upper Lorraine, ruled by the dynasty of Gérard de Châtenois, was de facto independent from the 10th to 15th centuries. Intersected by the Meuse and Moselle rivers, it had a great deal of trade and information passing through, which made it an enticing target. In 1431, a mere two years after the start of Saint Joan, the Duchy was ceded to the House of Anjou, specifically René I, from whom it was incorporated into France in 1480. Champagne: Under the rule of the Counts of Champagne until 1284, the marriage of Philip the Fair and Joan I of Navarre brought it under the royal domain. During the High Middle Ages (1000-1300), the County of Champagne was one of the most powerful fiefs in France, home to the largest financial and commercial markets in Western Europe. 2 Vaucouleurs Castle: The main defense of “the town that armed Joan of Arc” and the residence of Robert de Baudricourt.

  • La Hire Et Poton De Xaintrailles, Capitaines De Charles Vii Et Compagnons De Jeanne D’Arc
    Camenulae 15, octobre 2016 Christophe FURON LA HIRE ET POTON DE XAINTRAILLES, CAPITAINES DE CHARLES VII ET COMPAGNONS DE JEANNE D’ARC « Inséparables »1, « compagnons de Jeanne »2 : telle est l’image que La Hire, moins connu sous le nom d’Étienne de Vignoles, et Jean, dit Poton, de Xaintrailles laissèrent à la postérité, jusque dans l’historiographie la plus récente. Invariablement, les historiens les présentent comme de rudes capitaines de compagnie gascons, toujours fidèles au dauphin puis roi Charles VII, dont le point d’orgue de leur carrière se situe au moment de l’épopée johannique, plus précisément lors du siège d’Orléans3. Pourtant, les historiens se sont peu intéressés à ces deux capitaines : la dernière publication consacrée à La Hire date de 19684 et, pour ce qui concerne Poton de Xaintrailles, il faut remonter à… 19025. C’est cette image, persistante dans l’historiographie française au point d’en devenir un lieu commun, qu’il convient donc d’interroger. Il ne s’agit pas de tenter de dissocier le mythe de l’Histoire mais plutôt de comprendre comment, au cours des siècles, l’un et l’autre se sont nourris au point de constituer aujourd’hui une sorte d’image d’Épinal de la guerre de Cent Ans et de l’histoire de Jeanne d’Arc. Pour cela, retracer les carrières respectives des deux capitaines permet de comprendre le rôle du roi dans leur ascension, d’évaluer la place et l’éventuelle incidence que l’épopée johannique a pu avoir sur celle-ci et de questionner la réalité de leur compagnonnage.

In 1369 the Count of Flanders died, and the French king, Charles V, had - for the time being - driven the English from their early conquests in the north of France. He broke the Anglo-Flemish alliance, by forcing the Count's only child, Marguerite of Flanders, to marry his brother Philippe, Duke of Burgundy. The marriage joined the Low Countries in the north with Burgundy in the east. After a few skirmishes, Flanders acquiesced. The dying English king Edward III had hoped to strengthen the Anglo-Flemish alliance by marrying the sought-after heiress to his fifth son - instead his ally was now controlled by France. As the English grew weaker, Philippe brought the whole area of Flanders firmly under his control. It remained Burgundian for four reigns of French kings.
