The Routledge Companion to Medieval Warfare zv i The Routledge Companion to Medieval Warfare This comprehensive volume provides easily accessible factual material on all major areas of warfare in the medieval west. The whole geographical area of medieval Europe, including eastern Europe, is covered, together with essential elements from outside Europe such as Byzantine warfare, nomadic horde invasions and the Crusades. The Routledge Companion to Medieval Warfare is presented in themed, illustrated sections, each preceded by a narrative outline offering a brief introduction. Within each section, Jim Bradbury presents clear information on battles and sieges, and generals and leaders. Readable and engaging, this detailed work makes use of archaeological information and includes clear discussions of controversial issues. The author examines practical topics including castle architecture, with descriptions of specific castles, shipbuilding techniques, improvements in armour, specific weapons, and developments in areas such as arms and armour, fortifications, tactics and supply. Jim Bradbury taught at a secondary school for ten years before becoming a senior lecturer and head of section for history at Borough Road College, now part of Brunel University. He has written widely on medieval history, with an emphasis on military history. zv i i This page intentionally left blank. zvi ii The Routledge Companion to Medieval Warfare JIM BRADBURY LONDON AND NEW YORK zv i v First published 2004 by Routledge 11 New Fetter Lane, London EC4P 4EE Simultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge 29 West 35th Street, New York, NY 10001 Routledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group This edition published in the Taylor & Francis e-Library, 2005.

The idea was first put to me by the publisher and agreed with Heather McCallum, who has since moved on. Vicky Peters has taken over the unenviable task of keeping an eye on the project. It has been my intention to make the work enjoyable rather than a chore. I should also like to thank Carole Drummond and the people at The Running Head for their work in preparing the manuscript for publication. They have been extremely careful and accurate in their suggested corrections. I can honestly say that of the eight or so books I have so far had published they have done the best work of this nature that I have encountered. The length may be deceptive but certainly does not imply comprehensive cover. Firstly the book only attempts to look at warfare in medieval Europe, with the Crusades included as a western venture. Then, early on, it became clear that one must be selective in every area if the material was to be contained within one volume. It is therefore obvious that there must be omissions. My thanks for help go to my many friends in the field of medieval warfare who have talked over some areas included in the book, including Matt Bennett, Nick Hooper, John Gillingham, Cyril Edwards and many others. I hope that the book will be of use to students of the subject at various levels who can use it as a starting point. Probably the most useful part is the (very select) bibliography, from which the works mentioned will undoubtedly lead on the interested reader to many other contributors to this subject. I can only say that history has been a lifelong friend to me and I hope it may be to others. Jim Bradbury Selsey November 2003 zv x PART I Generals and leaders, A–Z Generals and leaders, A–Z ABD-AL-RĀHMAN III, AL-NĀSIR (THE VICTORIOUS), CALIPH OF CÓRDOBA (889–961) Umayyad Emir of Córdoba from 912, Caliph from 929. This was the start of an independent Iberian Muslim state—al-Andalus. From a reduced territory around Córdoba he expanded his power over much of Iberia, uniting the Muslims and taking tribute from Christian powers. His rule is seen as the golden age of the caliphate. His successes included the taking of Seville, Beja and Toledo. He defeated León at Pamplona in 920. He suffered defeat by Ramiro II of León at Simancas and Alhandega in 939, and at Talavera in 951, but lost little territory. His interests moved to North Africa where he captured Ceuta in 931 and Tangier in 951. He developed a Mediterranean navy. He was succeeded by his son al-Hakim II. ABŪ YŪSUF YA’QŪB, AL-MANSŪR, ALMOHAD CALIPH (d.1199) Caliph from 1184. He assumed al-Mansūr (the victorious) as a title. His reign in North Africa began with a six-year civil war, which allowed the Christian Reconquista in Iberia to advance. Abū Yūsuf took an army to Iberia in 1190. In 1191 he recovered Silves from Portugal. In 1195 he defeated Alfonso VIII of Castile at Alarcos. He besieged Madrid in 1197 but failed to take it. On his return to Marakesh in 1198 he fell ill and died in January 1199. He was succeeded by his son al-Nāsir. ADHÉMAR (OF MONTEIL) OF LE PUY (d.1098) Adhémar of Monteil, bishop of Le Puy, was the religious leader of the First Crusade. His ancestors were the Counts of Valentinois. In 1086 he made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. He was the first to take the crusading vow at Clermont-Ferrand in 1095 and was appointed by Urban II to lead the crusaders. Le Puy was the assembly point for the Crusade. Although the People’s Crusade ignored this and went ahead, most knightly leaders brought their men to Le Puy. Adhémar travelled with Raymond of Toulouse and helped give unity to the Crusade. Before reaching Constantinople Adhémar was wounded and captured by Pechenegs, though released when found to be a bishop. He died on 1 August of disease (probably typhoid) at Antioch, a loss to the Crusade’s unity. zv 4 AEGIDIUS (d.464) Roman general for Emperor Majorian, a member of the Syagrii family, Gallo-Roman aristocrats near Lyons. At Soissons he established a Roman enclave, which Gregory of Tours called a kingdom. He defeated Odoacer at Angers, and the Visigoths at Orléans, 463. He favoured an alliance with the Vandals, possibly the reason for his death by poisoning. He was succeeded by his son Syagrius. Through Aegidius the region became the land of the Franks rather than the Goths. AELLE, KING OF SUSSEX According to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle he led the south coast invasion in 477 with his sons, Cymen, Wlencing and Cissa. They landed at Cymenes ora (Cymen’s landing The routledge companion to medieval warfare 4 place), probably Selsey Bill.

  • Louis VII and the Towns
    Chapter 4 All Citizens High and Low: Louis VII and the Towns Steven Isaac Introduction On 8 August 1137, Louis the Young, son of King Louis VI of France, was in Poitiers where, with his bride of two weeks, Eleanor of Aquitaine, they were recognized as duke and duchess of the province. Although he appears not to have known so on that day, the prince was already king. Louis VI had died on the first of August, and messengers found Louis VII either in Poitiers or on the road therefrom soon after his ducal coronation. In theory, he had been king since 1131 because of the Capetian practice of anointing sons during their own lifetime so as to ensure less dynastic disruption. That said, there was no misunderstanding that Louis VI remained fully in power until the end. Along with the announcement of Louis VI’s death, or so close on its heels as not to matter, came a different sort of news: the inhabitants of Orléans had decided to create their own local government, a commune. In doing so without permis- sion, they were effectively staging a rebellion. Thus, the newly married, new- to- power king faced his first crisis within days. He was all of sixteen years old.1 The paucity of narrative sources that marks much of Louis VII’s reign does not let us know what motivated the Orléanais at this exact moment. Likely, they saw an opportunity in his youth and inexperience, but they were to be disap- pointed. Louis VII moved against the town immediately and “chastised” it.2 The next spring, the situation seemed to repeat itself and worsen when the burghers of Poitiers formed themselves into a commune.

  • Myth-Making and the Historical Imagination: an Investigation of the Historiography of Islamic Iberia Through Castilian Literature
    Myth-making and the Historical Imagination: An Investigation of the Historiography of Islamic Iberia Through Castilian Literature Gaston Jean-Xavier Arze Springfield, Virginia BA English, University of Virginia, 2017 A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts Department of Religious Studies University of Virginia December, 2018 Dr. Ahmed H. al-Rahim Dr. E. Michael Gerli 2 1. Introduction A historical narrative is thus necessarily a mixture of adequately and inadequately explained events, a congeries of established and inferred facts, at once a representation that is an interpretation and an interpretation that passes for an explanation of the whole process mirrored in the narrative. Hayden White, Tropics of Discourse (1978). The history of Islam in Spain is a deeply contested historical narrative, whose interpretation has significant implications for Spain’s perception of its national identity, as well as its historical memory, and modern political discourse. The rejection of Islamic Iberia plays an important role in the modern understanding of the nascence of the Spanish state. This is because, the history of medieval Iberia is largely framed as an 800-year struggle for independence from invading Muslims. This historical narrative is obviously at odds with the historical presence of the religion of Islam, the irrefutable linguistic contact between Arabic and Peninsular Romance, and the role of Arabic and Arabic sources in Iberia’s rich literary history. The aforementioned interpretation of the history of the Iberian Peninsula also rejects the influence that Islam played in the creation of identities unique to the peninsula: namely, the Mudéjars, the Moriscos and the Mozarabs.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Marvelous Generations: Lancastrian Genealogies and Translation in Late Medieval and Early Modern England and Iberia A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in English by Sara Victoria Torres 2014 © Copyright by Sara Victoria Torres 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Marvelous Generations: Lancastrian Genealogies and Translation in Late Medieval and Early Modern England and Iberia by Sara Victoria Torres Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Christine Chism, Co-chair Professor Lowell Gallagher, Co-chair My dissertation, “Marvelous Generations: Lancastrian Genealogies and Translation in Late Medieval and Early Modern England and Iberia,” traces the legacy of dynastic internationalism in the fifteenth, sixteenth, and early-seventeenth centuries. I argue that the situated tactics of courtly literature use genealogical and geographical paradigms to redefine national sovereignty. Before the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588, before the divorce trials of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon in the 1530s, a rich and complex network of dynastic, economic, and political alliances existed between medieval England and the Iberian kingdoms. The marriages of John of Gaunt’s two daughters to the Castilian and Portuguese kings created a legacy of Anglo-Iberian cultural exchange ii that is evident in the literature and manuscript culture of both England and Iberia. Because England, Castile, and Portugal all saw the rise of new dynastic lines at the end of the fourteenth century, the subsequent literature produced at their courts is preoccupied with issues of genealogy, just rule, and political consent. Dynastic foundation narratives compensate for the uncertainties of succession by evoking the longue durée of national histories—of Trojan diaspora narratives, of Roman rule, of apostolic foundation—and situating them within universalizing historical modes.
