Shared note | Eric Delderfield: "The archetype of the 'wicked king', John was the fourth son of Henry II, the child of his father's middle age. Not without some administrative ability, especially as regards the collection of money, he was yet cruel and avaricious. He was nicknamed 'Lackland', because his brothers were give territory by their father when he received none until being made King of Ireland in 1177. However, his campaign there in 1185-86 was disastrous, and his brother recalled him for misconduct. Though John had intrigued against Richard [#2963] while his brother was on crusade, they were reconciled, and on his death-bed Richard made John his heir. John continued to live up to his nickname, for in 1204 he lost Normandy and Anjou to the King of France, and by 1205 only a fragment remained of the vast Angevin empire. In the long run, this enforced insularity fostered the growth of the English nation state. In 1205 John quarrelled with the Church, because he refused to accept Stephen Langton, the Pope's nominee, as the Archbishop of Canterbury. In 1207 England was laid under an interdict, and John himself was excommunicated two years later. The dispute ended with John's abject surrender to Innocent III, one of the greatest of Medieval popes. The loss of England's French possessions, the ignominious failure of his quarrel with Rome, allied to misgovernment and the raising of extortionate taxes, untied against John the articulate elements of society. John's conduct encouraged men of intellect to conceive of law as having an independence independent of and above the king. The gradual removal of feudal balances and responsibilities, begun by Henry II, required the substitution of other mechanisms to prevent despotism. It was John's extortions to finance incompetent expeditions to recover his Angevin inheritance that proved the final straw: during his absence on the continent fighting against the French king, a project crowned with failure at the Battle of Bouvines in 1214, a party led by Langton came into existence. This is the first time in English history that a consensus of influential opinion enabled concerted action to be taken on such a scale against bad government. Londoners and the clergy supported the initiative of the Archbishop and the barons. A demand was made for the confirmation of popular liberties. After the barons' forces had assembled at Stamford and marched to London, the king capitulated and on Monday, 15 June 1215, on the small island of Runnymede in the Thames near Windsor, sealed the Magna Carta, the Great Charter, which restated the rights of the Church, the barons and all in the land. The three most important clauses laid down: 1. That the Church was free to choose its own officials. 2. That with no money, over and above certain payments, was to be paid by the king's feudal tenants without their previous consent. 3. That no freeman (Medieval society distinguished, of course, between servile and free men was to be punished except according to the laws of the land. Langton's key role was all the more remarkable for being contrary to the Pope's wishes; since John's agreement to hold England as a fief of the Papacy, Innocent III had supported him in the conflict. John soon reneged on his agreement with Langton and the barons, but after the barons invited the French Dauphin to lead them, the situation was reversed. John died at Newark, after eating peaches and beer, in the midst of an invasion, bequeathing enormous problems to his nine-year-old son."
