  • Baanrotsen in Brabant
    KU Leuven Faculty of Arts Blijde Inkomststraat 21 box 3301 3000 LEUVEN, BELGIË Baanrotsen in Brabant Title, power and nobility in the duchy of Brabant in the long fourteenth century Sarah De Decker Presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Advanced Master of Arts in Medieval and Renaissance Studies Supervisor: prof. dr. Hans Cools Academic year 2014-2015 164 096 characters ACKNOWLEDGMENTS In comparison to my dear friends and colleagues from the Advanced Master, it took me some time longer to finish my thesis. The main reason for this was the uncertainty that prevailed at the beginning of this research concerning the question whether I could find baanrotsen in sources for the thirteenth and fourteenth century other than the chronicle of Jan van Heelu. Every time this uncertainty came up, it was met with the positive and motivating spirit of my supervisor prof. dr. Hans Cools. For his patience with me these last two years, for his constant support and for all the encouraging discussions about baanrotsen and Brabant, I would like to sincerely thank him. The completion of this thesis would also never have been realised without the support of my family and friends. To my aunt in particular, Tante Mie, I owe special thanks. She always made time to scrutinize the spelling and grammar of this entire thesis and in doing so, she ensured that I did not had to be embarrassed about my English writing. I would also like to thank my best friends Marjon and Lies, my sister, for the reading, their support and all the hours they sacrificed to listening to all my thoughts and concerns.

  • University of Alberta by Jan Mahler a Thesis
    UNIVERSITY OF ALBERTA THE BATTLE OF WORRINGEN, 1288 THE HISTORY AND MYTHOLOGY OF A NOTABLE EVENT BY JAN MAHLER A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES AND RESEARCHIN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY EDMONTON, ALBERTA SPRING 1993 ABSTRACT The battle of Worringen in 1288 is generally considered as an important local event in the history of both the City of Cologne and the Low Countries. Present understanding of its causes, circumstances and historic significance has been shaped primarily by the Brabantine rhyme chronicle of Jan van Heelu and subsequent histories based on it, re- peatedly influenced by the resurgence of local patriotism. Upon examination of documentary, additional chronical evidence and the general historical background of the battle of Worringen, certain discrepancies became apparent. It would seem that the animosities between the Archbishop of Cologne, the City of Cologne, the Duke of Brabant, and the Archbishop's vassals originated much earlier and in slightly different circumstances than generally accepted. The sequence of events in the battle related by Jan van Heelu, as well as its geographical lo- cation defined in the subsequent historical literature, are amended. Despite what other treatments of this event have claimed, the Duke of Brabant was not the true victor of Worringen, nor was the Archbishop completely defeated. The City of Cologne did not significantly improve or even change its relationship with its feudal lord. Thus the battle of Worringen was neither decisive nor important in quite the way it has come to be understood.

  • Introduction 1
    Cambridge University Press 0521834872 - Politics and History in the Tenth Century: The Work and World of Richer of Reims Jason Glenn Excerpt More information INTRODUCTION On the second day of March 986, after a reign of more than three decades, King Lothar of west Francia died at the age of forty-five.1 Less than fifteen months later his son and successor Louis, just twenty years old, followed his father to the grave, his death perhaps the result of injuries suffered while hunting.2 Louis left behind neither sons nor legitimate brothers. Lothar’s brother Charles, duke of lower Lotharingia, thus pressed his own claim to the throne.3 His family, known to us as the Carolingians, had ruled the kingdom almost continually since the middle of the eighth century, but in the tenth century heredity mattered only so much in royal succession. The Frankish magnates elected – or more precisely, participated directly and actively in the succession of – their kings and, even if the power and prestige of the Carolingian line often led them to choose one of its scion, it was not unprecedented for them to raise a non-Carolingian to the throne.4 In the summer of 987, Charles was 1 For the date of Lothar’s death, see Lot, Derniers, 164, in partic. n. 1.

  • Feudalism in the Twelfth Century Charters of the Low Countries
    Feudalism in the twelfth century charters of the Low Countries Dirk Heirbaut (Ghent) 1. The Low Countries: fallen from grace in the historiography of feudalism When François-Louis Ganshof wrote his classic study of feudalism, he awarded a place of honour to the Low Countries because in his opinion feudalism had come into existence in the area between Loire and Rhine, the heartland of the Carolingian empire. Looking closer it turns out that he narrowed down even this selection, using most of all examples from the Low Countries. It is a bit suspicious that Ganshof thus turned his own part of Europe into the country of true feudalism, but he justified this by claiming that there are few other regions with so many explicit sources about feudal institutions during the High Middle Ages. Today’s literature of feudalism stands in a sharp contrast with Ganshof’s manual, as the Low Countries no longer have the leading part. In fact, some books leave them out of the story altogether1. The Mediterranean, or at least the Christian part of it, has become the centre of attention. This means that it was a good idea of the editors of this book to also include a paper on the Low Countries, because the difference between Ganshof and today begs for an explanation and, most of all, a look into the sources of feudalism in Flanders and Lotharingia. The latter will in this article be interpreted in the same way as in Ganshof’s book, which means Lower Lotharingia, without the principalities of the Lower Rhine, i.e.

Tel. +32 479 53 26 49 E-mail: [email protected] Koen Vanheule is a PhD student at Ghent University. He is currently working on a project regarding monastic leadership and reform in eleventh-century Lotharingia, with professors S. Vanderputten (Ghent University) and B. Meijns (Catholic University of Leuven) as his supervisors. This research is supported by the Flemish Research Foundation (FWO) under Grant B/11721/02. 1 Reformist Hagiography: The Life of St Roding of Beaulieu and the Struggle for Power in Early Eleventh-Century Lotharingia This paper explores an example of ‘reformist’ hagiographic production in early eleventh-century Lotharingia by focusing on the Life of St Roding of Beaulieu, a small monastery in the diocese of Verdun. Until recently, this text was interpreted exclusively in terms of the scant information it provides on this institution’s early medieval history and in terms of its ideological message regarding monastic discipline and leadership. By integrating the redaction of this text into the then- current regional geography and political context, this paper proposes a new approach to its interpretation and to the understanding of Beaulieu’s ‘monastic reform’ in general. Close analysis of the narrative reveals that its redaction was inspired by specific issues relating to local and regional politics in the mid-1010s, and that parts of the institution’s recent history were allegorically veiled behind the portrayal of Roding.

Today, the latter area is situated in three countries, viz. Belgium, the Ne- therlands, and Germany. Comparing the three parts is a bit like comparing apples with pears, because the conditions in each are quite incomparable. ﬈e majority of the material does not come from the regions themselves but derives from hoards in the Baltic area. ﬈ese hoards however do not mirror the situation in the duchy as a whole, as they preferentially contain coins that come from a trading network making use of rivers, especially the Rhine. Mints which are not close to this river network do not have the same chance of being represented in hoards in the Baltic Sea area countries [1]. Of course this does not mean that coinage was less important in the areas away from the Rhine than in the areas which are well represented in the Baltic area hoards. ﬈e number of domestic hoards is not sufficient to compensate. ﬈is brings us to another field, namely the single finds. In the Netherlands these are rather numerous [2], whereas in Belgium registered single finds are more or less exceptional, and in the Rhinelands there are some, but they are not as plentiﬔl as in the Netherlands.
