Hundred Years' War From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The Hundred Years' War , a conflict between England and France , is generally considered to have lasted 116 years, beginning in and ending in The effective beginning of the war was the decision of King Edward III of England to make a claim on the throne of France following the death of King Charles IV of France in . Edward's claim was through his mother, Isabella of France , Charles's sister. However, the French quoted the Salic law in order to bypass female heirs. Edward refused to do homage to Philip VI of France in 1337 and war began soon afterward. Edward's campaigns against the French knights were mostly successful. He was far less successful against their castles. He defeated the French at the Battle of Crecy in and was defeated in turn at the Battle of the Thirty in during which 30 French knights from Chateau Josselin called out and defeated 30 English knights. Unfortunately the French, observing chivalric tradition, sold Knollys ( Canolles ) and Cavely . This was good for the individual knights but damaged the country. Again, at the

Post WWII The Middle Ages The Hundred Years' War 1337 The origins of the Hundred Years' War lay with the English possession of Gascony in France, with rivalries over rich Flanders trade, and with fear caused by continual French intervention in Scotland. These disputes were exacerbated by Edward III's claim to the French throne(through his mother, Isabella) and the Hundred Years' War began. Early in the conflict, Edward gained command of the English Channel, and victory was had at Crecy in 1346, and Poitiers in 1356. Calais was also captured.

Several expeditions were dispatched from England, with little success. When Edward died in 1377 the war was stalemated, while England's southern holdings were again confined to Gascony. Edward's successor, Richard II, agreed what was intended as a 28-year truce in 1396. The treaty recognised the territorial status quo, granting England sovereignty solely over Gascony and Calais; however, English kings were allowed to use the title of 'King of France' and to claim rights to the former English possessions in Aquitaine.

The French kings attempted to assert control over the English-held province of Guyenne [located in southwest France and corresponding to the present day French département of Gironde and most of the départements of Aveyron Dordogne Lot and Lot-et-Garonne ]. Guyenne, [also known as Guyenne-et-Gascogne] from the earliest Roman days, had been part of what is now known as the region of Aquitaine . The 1259 Treaty of Paris , between Louis IX of France and Henry III of England, had made Henry III the vassal of Louis IX for both Guyenne and Gascony . England had previously maintained dominance over both Aquitaine and Gascony as a result of Eleanor of Aquitaine’s th century marriage to Henry II of England.

History of the Hundred Years War After a brief interval the craft of Philip Augustus was succeeded by the idealism of St. Louis, whose admirable character enabled him to achieve an extraordinary ascendancy over the imagination of his people. In spite of the disastrous failure of his crusading expeditions, the aggrandisement of the crown continued, especially under Philip the Fair; but the failure of direct heirs after the successive reigns of his three sons placed Philip of Valois on the throne, according to the Salic law of succession, in 1328. On the pretext of claiming the succession for himself, Edward III began the great French war, which lasted, interrupted by only one regular pacification, for a hundred and twenty years. The brilliant personal qualities of Edward and the Black Prince, the great resources of England and the quality of the soldiery account for the British successes. After the peace of Bretigny, these triumphs were reversed, and the English lost their possessions; but when Charles VI ascended the throne disaster followed. France was rent by the rival factions of Burgundy and Orleans. The troubled reigns of Richard II and Henry IV prevented England from taking advantage of these dissensions; but Henry V renewed the war, winning the battle of Agincourt in his first campaign and securing the Treaty of Troyes on his second invasion. After his death came that most marvellous revolution wrought by Joan of Arc, and the expulsion of the English from the country.

Entries Publication Data Maps Contributors ... World Civilizations Reader's Companion to Military History Hundred Years' War The name the Hundred Years' War has been used by historians since the beginning of the nineteenth century to describe the long conflict that pitted the kings and kingdoms of France and England against each other from 1337 to 1453. Two factors lay at the origin of the conflict: first, the status of the duchy of Guyenne (or Aquitaine)—though it belonged to the kings of England, it remained a fief of the French crown, and the kings of England wanted independent possession; second, as the closest relatives of the last direct Capetian king (Charles IV, who had died in 1328), the kings of England from 1337 claimed the crown of France. Theoretically, the French kings, possessing the financial and military resources of the most populous and powerful state in western Europe, held the advantage over the smaller, more sparsely populated English kingdom. However, the expeditionary English army, well disciplined and successfully using their longbows to stop cavalry charges, proved repeatedly victorious over much larger French forces: significant victories occurred by sea at Sluys (1340) , and by land at Crécy (1346) and Poitiers (1356) . In 1360, King John of France, in order to save his title, was forced to accept the Treaty of Calais, which granted complete independence to the duchy of Guyenne, now considerably enlarged to include almost a third of France. However, his son Charles V, with the help of his commander in chief Bertrand du Guesclin, by 1380 had succeeded in reconquering almost all the ceded territory, notably by a series of sieges.

JEAN FROISSART Chronicles of the Hundred Years War, (1337-1453) The "Hundred Years' War" between France and England (1337-1453) was an episodic struggle lasting well over a hundred years, with much of the time free of any conflict at all. The battles were violent, but also occasions for the display of chivalric ideals. Crecy and Poitiers were the battlefields upon which the legends of the Black Prince were made. The Battle of Crecy (1346) The Englishmen, who were in three battles lying on the ground to rest them, as soon as they saw the Frenchmen approach, they rose upon their feet fair and easily without any haste and arranged their battles. The first, which was the prince's battle, the archers there stood in manner of a herse and the men of arms in the bottom of the battle. The earl of Northampton and the earl of Arundel with the second battle were on a wing in good order, ready to comfort the prince's battle, if need were.

The Norman Period : Urbanization The 100 Years War : The War The Hundred Years War : Dynastic Policy The Kings of England were hereditary DUKES OF NORMANDY, and the Plantagenet Dynasty Kings were also DUKES OF AQUITAINE and COUNTS OF POITOU. Although Normandy was lost to France by King John (1204), the English kings still owned a sizeable proportion of France. The confiscation of the English fiefs of Poitou and Aquitaine lead to Plantagenet King Edward III. of England refusing to pay homage (as Duke of Aquitaine) to King Philip VI. of France, of the new Valois dynasty, claiming the crown for himself instead. In 1399, the Plantagenet Dynasty split in two, the HOUSES OF LANCASTER (which were to rule the next decades) and the HOUSE OF YORK. With the ascension of Lancastrian HENRY V. in 1413, the war reached it's next stage. Again refused his hereditary titles in France, Henry V. claimed to be the legitimate heir to the French throne himself., by SALIC LAW (valid in France), which explicitly ruled out female succession; thus, the Valois Dynasty had made their claim, based on female succession, over the legitimate claim of Henry V. After the decisive BATTLE OF AZINCOURT ended with an English victory, peace was negotiated, Henry married to Catherine, princess of France. The martriage would give Henry's rule over (northern) France 1422-1429, additional legitimacy.

Jones Knights and Peasants The Hundred Years War in the French Countryside Nicholas Wright The Boydell Press 30 [pounds sterling] xiv + 144pp ISBN 85115 535 9 NICHOLAS WRIGHT'S EXCITING AND PROVOCATIVE book eschews the conventional political narrative of the Hundred Years' War, that of a struggle between the rival houses of Plantagenet and Valois. Nor is this a study of the big battalions and well-trodden campaigns, the tales of chivalric derring-do immortalised by the chronicler Jean Froissart. Instead, a new interpretative framework is set up, defining an entirely different, underlying dimension: a series of highly localised dashes between military adventurers and the rural population (the `knights' and `peasants' of the title). It is the harsh reality of this often unseen and largely forgotten war that Wright vividly brings to life. The author's freshness of approach offers us a stimulating re-evaluation of the conflict. At its centre are an ill-paid and poorly disciplined soldiery engaged in a brutal struggle for survival. Their victims are a numerous and impoverished peasantry. National identity, the `Englishness' or `Frenchness' of the combatants is, in Wright's account, less a reason for this struggle and more a justification. The real motives of the participants are seen as primal and barbaric hunger, greed, primitive group loyalty and a desire for revenge and their ramifications are unflinchingly examined.

Apart from naval engagements and coastal raids, it was fought entirely on French soil and is thought to have reduced the population of France by perhaps half The profitable English export trade in wool and cloth to Flanders was a significant factor; but the straggle centred on the French possessions of the kings of England and their claim to be kings of France. When the last of the Capetian kings, Charles IV died in 1328, the nearest male relative was his nephew Edward III of England, whose mother was Charles's sister. The French nobility, how ever, swiftly accepted Philip of Valois as King Philip VI, not because Edward III's claim lay through a woman, it seems, but because he was English and unsuitable. He was only fifteen years old had only just succeeded in England in dubious circumstances and had plenty to occupy him at home. Edward did homage to Philip for Aquitaine and Ponthieu in 1329, but in 1337 Philip confiscated then to punish him for harbouring Philip's cousin and enemy, Robert of Artois. This is the conventional starting point of the war; in which the English won brilliant victories at Crecy in 1346, Poitiers in 1356 and Agincourt in 1415. The high point of English fortunes came when Henry V took control of Paris, Normandy and much of northern France, married Charles VI's daughter and forced the French king to accept him as regent of France and successor to the throne.
