Shared note | Eric Delderfield: "Edward was hastily crowned king when his father was deposed by his mother and Roger de Mortimer. His marriage to Philippa of Hainault in 1328 was arranged before his coronation, and it was a further two years before he took control of the government, ordering the arrest of Mortimer at Nottingham and the imprisonment of his mother. Mortimer was hanged at Tyburn, and his mother was banished to Castle Rising in Norfolk where she spent the last twenty-eight years of her life. The main interest of the long reign of Edward III lies in the opening stages of the Hundred Years War with France. Ostensibly the war began, in 1337, to support Edward's claim to the French throne (a claim not surrendered until 1802), a pretnece marked by Edward's quartering of the lilies of France beside the leopards of England on his coat of arms. In reality the war was, in origin, an attempt to retain control of Gascony and the wine trade centered on Bordeaux; and to keep open the connections between the English wool traders and the woolen markets of Flanders. Sluys (1340), a naval battle, gave England control of the Channel. Though spectacular victories, neither Crecy (1346) not Poitiers (1356) achieved much in the longer term. Calais, after twelve months' siege (1347) passed into English hands for the next hundred years. It was in this phase of the war that the king's eldest son, Edward (1330-1376), known to history as the 'Black Prince' (either because of the color of his armor or, more likely, because of his foul Angevin temper), covered himself with glory. The outbreak of bubonic plague, the 'Black Death', in 1348-50 removed a third of the population of England and undermined military strength. Originating in China and affecting the whole of Europe, the plague entered England through Melcombe Regis (now Weymouth) in 1348, and soon reached Bristol, Oxford, and London. It inevitably raised the price of labor and weakened further the waning feudal system. In 1360 the Treaty of Bretigny brought the war to a close. When Edward III died in 1377, all that was left of the English conquests were five fortified towns and the coastal lands around them. Hostilities with Scotland were also resumed when Edward tried to bring an end to Scottish independence. Supporting Edward Baliol's coronation in 1332, Edward invaded Scotland to defeat his rival, David II, at Halidon Hill near Berwick, but within five months Baliol had to flee. In 1346 David invaded England while Edward was fighting in France; Queen Philippa proved equal to the occasion by raising an army which defeated and captured David at Neville's Cross near Durham. After Queen Philippa's death in 1369, Edward retreated to Windsor where he became increasingly senile. Public finances were in a parlous state. Edward's rapacious mistress Alice Perrers helped to erode the residual goodwill of the people, and the sadness caused by the death of the Black Prince clouded his last years. He relinquished government to his fourth son John of Gaunt [our ancestor], and reputedly died alone. During Edward's long reign, many changes took place in England. Parliament, now divided into two houses, met regularly to vote supplies for the conduct of the war. 'Treason' was defined by statute for the first time in 1352. The office of JP was created in 1361. In 1362 English replaced French as the official language of the law courts. Within twenty years John Wycliffe and the Lollards (the first 'protestants') were aiding their cause with the first 'English' translation of the Bible, and already Chaucer was writing 'English' masterpieces. The new merchant class and the spread of lay learning were building a national civilization." Facts about this person: Record Change December 06, 1999 Burial 1377 Westminster (London), England |
