Notes for John LACKLAND


GEN: NSFX King of England GEN: Notoriously cruel, suspicious,
untrustworthy, and violent, John's GEN: reputation is not salvaged by
an alleged constructive interest in GEN: administration or by
assertions that contemporary writers were monks GEN: who GEN: resented
his treatment of the Church. The youngest son of Henry II and GEN:
Queen Eleanor, he 'lacked land' until made king of Ireland (1177), but
GEN: his GEN: Irish expedition (1185-6) failed. GEN: Henry's plan
(1183) to give him Aquitaine led to war with his brother GEN: Richard,
and when Henry died (1189) John was also at war with the GEN: king.
GEN: Richard treated GEN: him generously, but he intrigued in
Richard's absence on crusade; he GEN: was GEN: reconciled when Richard
returned and on his death-bed Richard made him GEN: his GEN: heir
(1199). As king he was calculating and insensitive, and he made a GEN:
number of enemies, English as well as French and papal. Nobles and
GEN: clergy GEN: resisted his GEN: demands for resources to protect
his French lands; allies were GEN: offended by GEN: his marriage to
Isabella of Angouleme and his murder of his nephew, GEN: Arthur GEN:
of GEN: Brittany; and by 1204 all were angry at his military
ineffectiveness GEN: in GEN: losing Normandy and Anjou (hence  the
name 'Softsword'). He quarrelled GEN: with the new GEN: archbishop of
Canterbury, Stephen Langton (from 1206), and so GEN: alienated GEN:
the pope that England was laid under interdict (1208-13) and John GEN:
excommunicated GEN: (1209). His success in forcing the submission of
William the Lion, GEN: Welsh GEN: princes, and English colonists in
Ireland cost money, which John GEN: raised by GEN: exploitation of
clergy, nobles, and Jews, and caused resentment. His GEN: submission
of the kingdom to the pope (1213) was a stroke of genius by GEN: a
GEN: desperate man faced with growing opposition. He promised justice
and GEN: Henry GEN: I's customs, while plotting revenge on his
enemies. When expeditions GEN: to GEN: Poitou and in aid of the German
emperor against Philip II (1214) GEN: proved GEN: disastrous, John's
determination to defy his critics led to civil war GEN: (1215); at
Runnymede he was forced to seal Magna Carta, guaranteeing GEN: justice
and good government. His plans to exact further revenge drove GEN:
some GEN: nobles to renounce their allegiance and choose Philip II's
son, Louis, GEN: as GEN: king (121 ). During a harsh campaign against
his rebels, he died at GEN: Newark GEN: after consuming peaches and
beer; he was buried, as requested, in GEN: Worcester Cathedral. GEN:
