Notes
Edward, called the Black Prince (1330-76), prince of Wales, who
distinguished himself as a military leader during the Hundred Years'
War.
Edward was born at Woodstock in Oxfordshire on June 15, 1330, the son
of King Edward III of England. During his lifetime, he was called
Edward of Woodstock; the name Black Prince was given him because of
the black armor he wore. In 1346 Edward accompanied his father on the
English campaign in Normandy, and during the Battle of Crecy, when he
was only 16, the prince won high acclaim for his command of the right
wing of the English army.
In 1355 Edward was appointed his father's lieutenant in Gascony. He
led the English army in a series of raids across southern France and
in 1356 defeated a French army at Poitiers, took King John II of
France prisoner, and returned in triumph to England with his captive.
In 1361 he married his cousin Joan, countess of Kent (1328-85) known
as the fair maid of Kent. A year later his father created him prince
of Aquitaine and Gascony, and he went to his domains in southern
France. As lord of those lands, Edward became, under feudal law, a
vassal of the French king.
During his rule the prince estranged the Gascon nobles, who believed
that he was curtailing their feudal rights. After almost six years of
peace, Edward, in 1367, led an expedition to Spain in order to restore
Peter the Cruel, the deposed king of Castile, to his throne. During
the successful Spanish campaign, Edward contracted an illness from
which he never recovered; Peter furthermore refused to repay Edward
the vast sums that had been expended on his behalf. On his return to
Aquitaine, the prince levied taxes to pay for the expedition, but the
disgruntled nobles protested to Edward's feudal lord, King Charles V
of France. The prince refused to answer to the charges against him,
and Charles renewed the war against England. A revolt against Edward
spread through Aquitaine and Gascony, and despite his illness the
prince led his troops against the city of Limoges, capturing it in
1370 and massacring its defenders. A year later he returned to England
and resigned his principality.
During the last years of his life, Edward was a leader of the
political faction that rebelled against the misrule of his younger
brother, John of Gaunt, duke of Lancaster. Edward finally succumbed to
his illness and died at Westminster on June 8, 1376. He was buried in
Canterbury Cathedral, in which parts of his armor still hang. He was
also duke of Cornwall and earl of Chester.

Notes
Edward II (1284-1327), Plantagenet king of England (1307-27), Prince
of Wales, and Duke of Aquitaine, whose incompetence and distaste for
government finally led to his deposition and murder.
Edward was born on April 25, 1284, at Caernarvon, Wales, the fourth
son of King Edward I and his first wife, Eleanor of Castile. The
deaths of his older brothers made the infant prince heir to the
throne; in 1301 he was proclaimed prince of Wales, the first heir
apparent in English history to bear that title. The prince was idle
and frivolous, with no liking for military campaigning or affairs of
state. Believing that the prince's close friend Piers Gaveston (died
1312), a Gascon knight, was a bad influence on the prince, Edward I
banished Gaveston. On his father's death, however, Edward II recalled
his favorite. Gavestone incurred the opposition of the powerful
English barony. The nobles were particularly angered in 1308, when
Edward made Gaveston regent for the period of the king's absence in
France, where he went to marry Isabella (1292-1358), daughter of King
Philip IV. In 1311 the barons, led by Thomas, earl of Lancaster
(1277?-1322), forced the king to appoint from among them a committee
of 21 noblemen and prelates, call the lords ordainers. They proclaimed
a series of ordinances that transferred the ruling power to themselves
and excluded the commons and lower clergy from Parliament. After they
had twice forced the king to banish Gaveston, and the king had each
time recalled him, the barons finally had the king's favorite
kidnapped and executed (1312).
In the meantime Robert Bruce had almost completed his reconquest of
Scotland, which he had begun shortly after 1305. In 1314 Edward II and
his barons raised an army of some 100,000 men, with which to crush
Bruce, but in the attempt to lift the siege of Stirling were
decisively defeated (see Bannockburn, Battle of). For the following
eight years the earl of Lancaster viturally ruled the kingdom. In
1322, however, with the advice and help of two new royal favorites,
the baron Hugh le Despenser the Elder, and his son Hugh the Younger,
Edward defeated Lancaster in battle and had him executed. The
Despensers thereupon became de facto rulers of England. They summoned
a Parliament in which the commons were included and which repealed the
ordinances of 1311 on the ground they had been passed by the barons
only. The repeal was a great step forward in English constitutional
development, for it meant that thenceforth no law passed by Parliament
was valid unless the House of Comman approved it.
Edward again futilely invaded Scotland in 1322, and in 1323 signed a
13-year truce with Bruce. In 1325 Queen Isabella accompanied the
prince of Wales to France, where, in accordance with feudal custom, he
did homage to king Charles IV for the fief of Aquitaine. Isabella, who
desired to depose the Despensers, allied herself with some barons who
had been exiled by Edward. In 1326, with their leader Roger de
Mortimer (1287?-1330) Isabella raised an army and invaded England.
Edward and his favorites fled, but his wife's army pursued and
executed the Despensers and imprisoned Edward. In January 1327,
Parliament forced Edward to resign and proclaimed the prince of Wales
king as Edward III.On September 21 of that year Edward II was murdered
by his captors at Berkeley Castle, Gloucestershire.

Notes
He was also duke of Normandy, and first monarch of the house of Anjou,
or Plantagenet, an important administrative reformer, who was one of
the most powerful European rulers of his time.
Henry became duke of Normandy in 1151. The following year, on the
death of his father, he inherited the Angevin territories in France.
By his marriage to Eleanor of Aquitaine, Henry added vast territories
in southwestern France to his possessions. Henry claimed the English
kingship through his mother. She had been designated the heiress of
Henry I but had been deprived of the succession by her cousin, Stephen
of Blois, who made himself king. In 1153 Henry defeated Stephen's
armies in England and compelled the king to choose him as his
successor; on Stephen's death, the following year, Henry became king.
During the first few years of his reign Henry quelled the disorders
that had developed during Stephen's reign, regained the northern
counties of England, which had previously been ceded to Scotland, and
conquered North Wales. In 1171-72 he began the Norman conquest of
Ireland and in 1174 forced William the Lion, king of the Scots, to
recognize him as overlord.
In 1164 Henry became involved in a quarrel with Thomas à Becket, whom
he had appointed archbishop of Canterbury. By the Constitutions of
Clarendon, the king decreed that priests accused of crimes should be
tried in royal courts; Becket claimed that such cases should be
handled by ecclesiastical courts, and the controversy that followed
ended in 1170 with Becket's murder by four of Henry's knights.
Widespread indignation over the murder forced the king to rescind his
decree and recognize Becket as a martyr.
Although he failed to subject the church to his courts, Henry's
judicial reforms were of lasting significance. In England he
established a centralized system of justice accessible to all freemen
and administered by judges who traveled around the country at regular
intervals. He also began the process of replacing the old trial by
ordeal with modern court procedures.
From the beginning of his reign, Henry was involved in conflict with
Louis VII, king of France, and later with Louis's successor, Philip
II, over the French provinces that Henry claimed. A succession of
rebellions against Henry, headed by his sons and furthered by Philip
II and by Eleanor of Aquitaine, began in 1173 and continued until his
death. Henry was succeeded by his son Richard I, called Richard the
Lion-Hearted.

Notes
Edward I, called Longshanks (1239-1307), king of England (1272-1307),
Lord of Gascony, of the house of Plantagenet. He was born in
Westminster on June 17, 1239, the eldest son of King Henry III, and at
15 married Eleanor of Castile. In the struggles of the barons against
the crown for constitutional and ecclesiastical reforms, Edward took a
vacillating course. When warfare broke out between the crown and the
nobility, Edward fought on the side of the king, winning the decisive
battle of Evesham in 1265. Five years later he left England to join
the Seventh Crusade. Following his father's death in 1272, and while
he was still abroad, Edward was recognized as king by the English
barons; in 1273, on his return to England, he was crowned.
The first years of Edward's reign were a period of the consolidation
of his power. He suppressed corruption in the administration of
justice, restricted the jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical courts to
church affairs, and eliminated the papacy's overlordship over England.
On the refusal of Llewelyn ab Gruffydd (died 1282), ruler of Wales, to
submit to the English crown, Edward began the military conflict that
resulted, in 1284, in the annexation of Llewelyn's principality to the
English crown. In 1290 Edward expelled all Jews from England. War
between England and France broke out in 1293 as a result of the
efforts of France to curb Edward's power in Gascony. Edward lost
Gascony in 1293 and did not again come into possession of the duchy
until 1303. About the same year in which he lost Gascony, the Welsh
rose in rebellion.
Greater than either of these problems was the disaffection of the
people of Scotland. In agreeing to arbitrate among the claimants to
the Scottish throne, Edward, in 1291, had exacted as a prior condition
the recognition by all concerned of his overlordship of Scotland. The
Scots later repudiated him and made an alliance with France against
England. To meet the critical situations in Wales and Scotland, Edward
summoned a parliament, called the Model Parliament by historians
because it was a representative body and in that respect was the
forerunner of all future parliaments. Assured by Parliament of support
at home, Edward took the field and suppressed the Welsh insurrection.
In 1296, after invading and conquering Scotland, he declared himself
king of that realm. In 1298 he again invaded Scotland to suppress the
revolt led by Sir William Wallace. In winning the Battle of Falkirk in
1298, Edward achieved the greatest military triumph of his career, but
he failed to crush Scottish opposition.
The conquest of Scotland became the ruling passion of his life. He
was, however, compelled by the nobles, clergy, and commons to desist
in his attempts to raise by arbitrary taxes the funds he needed for
campaigns. In 1299 Edward made peace with France and married Margaret,
sister of King Philip III of France. Thus freed of war, he again
undertook the conquest of Scotland in 1303. Wallace was captured and
executed in 1305. No sooner had Edward established his government in
Scotland, however, than a new revolt broke out and culminated in the
coronation of Robert Bruce as king of Scotland. In 1307 Edward set out
for the third time to subdue the Scots, but he died en route near
Carlisle on July 7, 1307. He also had a daughter with Eleanor of
Castile that died young.

Notes
Edward III (1312-77), king of England (1327-77), Earl of Chester, Duke
of Aquitaine, who initiated the long, drawn-out struggle with France
called the Hundred Years' War.
Edward was born at Windsor on November 13, 1312, the elder son of King
Edward II, of the house of Plantagenet. Involved by his mother,
Isabella of France (1292-1358), in her intrigues against his father,
he was proclaimed king after the latter was forced to abdicate in
1327. During Edward's minority, England was nominally ruled by a
council of regency, but the actual power was in the hands of Isabella
and her paramour, Roger de Mortimer (1287?-1330). In 1330, however,
the young king staged a palace coup and took the power into his own
hands. He had Mortimer hanged and confined his mother to her home.
Edward began a series of wars almost directly after he had control of
England. Taking advantage of civil war in Scotland in 1333, he invaded
the country, defeated the Scots at Halidon Hill, England, and restored
Edward de Baliol to the throne of Scotland. Baliol, however, was soon
deposed, and later attempts by Edward to establish him permanently as
king of Scotland were unsuccessful. In 1337 France came to the aid of
Scotland. This action was the culminating point in a series of
disagreements between France and England, and Edward declared war on
Philip VI of France. In 1340 the English fleet destroyed a larger
French fleet off Sluis, the Netherlands. The action resulted in a
truce that, although occasionally disturbed, lasted for six years.
War broke out again in 1346. Edward, accompanied by his eldest son,
Edward the Black Prince, invaded Normandy and won a great victory over
France in the Battle of Crécy. He captured Calais in 1347, and a truce
was reestablished. Edward returned to England, where he maintained one
of the most magnificent courts in Europe. The war with France was
renewed in 1355, and again the English armies were successful. The
Peace of Calais, in 1360, gave England all of Aquitaine, and Edward in
return renounced his claim, first made in 1328, to the French throne.
Edward continued to assert his will both domestically and abroad. In
1363 he concluded an agreement with his brother-in-law, David II of
Scotland, uniting the two kingdoms in the event of David's death
without male issue. Three years later Edward repudiated the papacy's
feudal supremacy over England, held in fief since 1213. He renewed his
war with France, disavowing the Peace of Calais. This time, however,
the English armies were unsuccessful. After the truce of 1375, Edward
retained few of his previously vast possessions in France.
The king had, by this time, become senile. He was completely in the
power of an avaricious mistress, Alice Perrers (flourished 1366-1400),
who, along with his fourth son, John of Gaunt, dominated England.
Perrers was banished by Parliament in 1376, and Edward himself died at
Sheen (now Richmond) on June 21, 1377. He was succeeded by his
grandson, Richard II.

Henry III (of England) (1207-72), king of England (1216-72), Duke of
Aquitaine, son and successor of King John (Lackland), and a member of
the house of Anjou, or Plantagenet. Henry ascended the throne at the
age of nine, on the death of his father. During his minority the
kingdom was ruled by William Marshal, earl of Pembroke, as regent, but
after his death in 1219 the justiciar Hubert de Burgh was the chief
power in the government. During the regency the French, who occupied
much of eastern England, were expelled, and rebellious barons were
subdued.
Henry was declared of age in 1227. In 1232 he dismissed Hubert de
Burgh from his court and commenced ruling without the aid of
ministers. Henry displeased the barons by filling government and
church offices with foreign favorites, many of them relatives of his
wife, Eleanor of Provence, whom he married in 1236, and by squandering
money on Continental wars, especially in France. In order to secure
the throne of Sicily for one of his sons, Henry agreed to pay the pope
a large sum. When the king requested money from the barons to pay his
debt, they refused and in 1258 forced him to agree to the Provisions
of Oxford, whereby he agreed to share his power with a council of
barons. Henry soon repudiated his oath, however, with papal approval.
After a brief period of war, the matter was referred to the
arbitration of Louis IX, king of France, who decided in Henry's favor
in a judgment called the Mise of Amiens (1264). Simon de Montfort,
earl of Leicester, accordingly led the barons into war, defeated Henry
at Lewes, and took him prisoner. In 1265, however, Henry's son and
heir, Edward, later King Edward I, led the royal troops to victory
over the barons at Evesham, about 40.2 km (about 25 mi) south of
Birmingham. Simon de Montfort was killed in the battle, and the barons
agreed to a compromise with Edward and his party in 1267. From that
time on Edward ruled England, and when Henry died, he succeeded him as
king.
