Shared note

Pierre Goubert: "The brilliant young damsel of fifteen whom [Louis VII's] father had chosen for him had been raised at the court of Poitiers, from which she brought a new language, a culture, and a taste for poetry, songs, flowery decor, and courtesy, as well as a certain freedom of manners and conduct that created a sensation and a hint of scandal in the far rougher Capetian milieu. Eleanor pushed her husband to intervene openly in the appointment of bishops and in other affairs of the Church, for which she had little love. She also incited him to attack his dangerous neighbor Thibaut of Champagne; the encounter was bloody and ended badly. Louis fell back under the influence of the clerics while his wife became more and more estranged from him. ...For the future of the monarchy and the kingdom of France, Louis VII's having dragged the queen along [on the failed Second Crusade] had [an] important consequence, for rumor had it she had behaved very badly, or rather had been too good to a handsome Saracen who, to make matters worse, was a slave. Whether or not the affair took place, the frivolous lady from Poitou had produced only two daughters for the king, and he was tired of her. In spite of Suger [the Abbot whom Louis had left to run France while he was Crusading] and the pope, he found several bishops who were accommodating enough to annul the marriage, although it had been consummated. [Eleanor chose as her next husband Henry Plantagenet.] Already the count of Anjou and Maine as well as effective master of Normandy..., he became King of England in 1154. As vassals of the king of France, the couple held lands stretching from Dieppe to the Pyrenees. Furthermore, they had three sons: Henry, Richard the Lion-Hearted, and John Lackland."
