Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early History of the House of Savoy: 1000-1233 The following pages contain a study on the history of the House of Savoy until the year 1233. Although many works on portions or on aspects of this period have been written, and though it has formed a part of more than one history with wider scope, such as Cibrario's Storia della Monarchia di Savoia, yet there seemed to be room for a new investigation, which should at one and the same time treat the subject with a full discussion of its details and with a comprehensive view of the period as a whole. In doing so I have put aside the idea of writing a history of the strictly literary kind. The story could be made connected only by missing out the long succession of isolated details, which yet form the greater part of our knowledge regarding it, and by relegating to appendices the endless discussions to which those details give rise. This could not be done satisfactorily save in a work dealing with a longer series of years and thus able to employ an ampler stride in the marshalling of events. That alternative being excluded, I have taken as my model in a general way the Jahrbucher on the Holy Roman Emperors. That is, I have gone plainly on, discussing events and problems as the times brought them to light and endeavouring to be complete and omit nothing. An absolute chronological order I did not try to preserve, for, especially in the later chapters, the various aspects of a princes reign fell into sections with too little organic connection for that, and to follow the sequence of time would be merely confusing. Here, too, the fragmentary character of the evidence would quite preclude any attempt to give a year-by-year account. On the other hand, one principal feature of the Jahrbucher I have been careful to imitate. There will be found in the notes all the important passages of narrative or legal nature on which the text is founded, not merely references to them.

Book Peter of Savoy

Download or read book Peter of Savoy written by John Marshall and published by Pen and Sword History. This book was released on 2024-02-01 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where did the story that ended with the great Edwardian castles of north Wales begin? How was it that hundreds of men from Savoy built castles in north Wales? Whose stylised statue sits outside the Savoy Hotel in London on the site of his former palace? Whose castle of Pevensey endured successfully the longest English siege? Why does much of Switzerland speak French to this day? Why do we find elements of the Magna Carta in the Statutes of Savoy? Who was one of the greatest figures of the thirteenth century? Peter of Savoy, known to chroniclers of his homeland as The Little Charlemagne. Peter of Savoy came to England as the uncle of Queen Alianor de Provence, the consort of King Henry III. He quickly found favour as one of Henry’s closest advisers and noblemen. Peter was in effect Queen Alianor’s right-hand man in England, her protector, and subsequently the protector of Lord Edward, the future King Edward I. He played a key role in Henry’s military and diplomatic efforts to recover his ancestral lands in France which culminated in the 1259 Treaty of Paris. This rapprochement between the Capetians and Plantagenets might have warded off the Hundred Years War, but it was not to be. Nonetheless, the nineteenth-century monks of Savoy thought it his greatest accomplishment. Peter played a key role in the Second Baronial War which engulfed Henry’s reign, at first siding with Simon de Montfort but then changing sides as the reform movement veered toward xenophobia. Returning to Savoy he laid the foundations for the County of Savoy to become a powerful Duchy which in turn almost became a country before it was dismembered by Switzerland, Italy and France. His historical reputation suffered at the hands of English chroniclers keen to eulogise the Montfortian regime. This work is an attempt to discover the real Peter of Savoy.

  • ISBN : 1400874998
  • Pages : 419 pages

Download or read book The Green Count of Savoy written by Eugene L. Cox and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourteenth century is usually portrayed as a period of retrogression and disaster in European history, but for the transalpine state of Savoy it was a period of glory. During this time almost the entire region between Lombardy and Burgundy was brought under the control of Savoyard rulers. The "buffer state" created between France and Italy hindered French expansion for many centuries and helped preserve the independence of Italy. Drawing upon much unpublished material, Professor Cox traces the social and political evolution of the principality. He discusses how the Savoyard state was governed, financed, and defended. He also provides a fascinating biography of the Green Count. Originally published in 1967.
