The fourth son of <a href="/wiki/Edward_I" class="mw-redirect" title="Edward I">Edward I</a>, Edward became the heir to the throne following the death of his older brother <a href="/wiki/Alphonso,_Earl_of_Chester" title="Alphonso, Earl of Chester">Alphonso</a>. Beginning in 1300, Edward accompanied his father on <a href="/wiki/Wars_of_Scottish_Independence" title="Wars of Scottish Independence">campaigns in Scotland</a>, and in 1306 he was <a href="/wiki/Knight#Evolution_of_medieval_knighthood" title="Knight">knighted</a> in <a href="/wiki/Feast_of_the_Swans" title="Feast of the Swans">a grand ceremony</a> at <a href="/wiki/Westminster_Abbey" title="Westminster Abbey">Westminster Abbey</a>. Edward succeeded to the throne the next year, following his father's death. In 1308, he married <a href="/wiki/Isabella_of_France" title="Isabella of France">Isabella</a>, daughter of the powerful King <a href="/wiki/Philip_IV_of_France" title="Philip IV of France">Philip IV of France</a>, as part of a long-running effort to resolve the tensions between the English and French crowns. Edward had a close and controversial relationship with <a href="/wiki/Piers_Gaveston" class="mw-redirect" title="Piers Gaveston">Piers Gaveston</a>, who had joined his household in 1300. The precise nature of Edward and Gaveston's relationship is uncertain; they may have been friends, lovers, or <a href="/wiki/Sworn_brother" class="mw-redirect" title="Sworn brother">sworn brothers</a>. Gaveston's arrogance and power as Edward's <a href="/wiki/Favourite" title="Favourite">favourite</a> provoked discontent both among the barons and the French royal family, and Edward was forced to exile him. On Gaveston's return, the barons pressured the King into agreeing to wide-ranging reforms called the <a href="/wiki/Ordinances_of_1311" title="Ordinances of 1311">Ordinances of 1311</a>. The newly empowered barons banished Gaveston, to which Edward responded by revoking the reforms and recalling his favourite. Led by Edward's cousin <a href="/wiki/Thomas,_2nd_Earl_of_Lancaster" title="Thomas, 2nd Earl of Lancaster">Thomas, 2nd Earl of Lancaster</a>, a group of the barons seized and executed Gaveston in 1312, beginning several years of armed confrontation. English forces were pushed back in Scotland, where Edward was decisively defeated by <a href="/wiki/Robert_the_Bruce" title="Robert the Bruce">Robert the Bruce</a> at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Bannockburn" title="Battle of Bannockburn">Battle of Bannockburn</a> in 1314. <a href="/wiki/Great_Famine_of_1315%E2%80%931317" title="Great Famine of 1315–1317">Widespread famine</a> followed, and criticism of the King's reign mounted. The Despenser family, in particular <a href="/wiki/Hugh_Despenser_the_Younger" title="Hugh Despenser the Younger">Hugh Despenser the Younger</a>, became close friends and advisers to Edward, but in 1321 Lancaster and many of the barons seized the Despensers' lands and forced the King to exile them. In response, Edward led a <a href="/wiki/Despenser_War" title="Despenser War">short military campaign</a>, capturing and executing Lancaster. Edward and the Despensers strengthened their grip on power, revoking the 1311 reforms, executing their enemies and confiscating estates. Unable to make progress in Scotland, Edward finally signed a truce with Robert. Opposition to the regime grew, and when Isabella was sent to France to negotiate <a href="/wiki/War_of_Saint-Sardos#Aftermath" title="War of Saint-Sardos">a peace treaty</a> in 1325, she turned against Edward and refused to return. Isabella allied herself with the exiled <a href="/wiki/Roger_Mortimer,_1st_Earl_of_March" title="Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March">Roger Mortimer</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Invasion_of_England_(1326)" title="Invasion of England (1326)">invaded England</a> with a small army in 1326. Edward's regime collapsed and he fled into Wales, where he was captured in November. Edward was forced to relinquish his crown in January 1327 in favour of his son, <a href="/wiki/Edward_III" class="mw-redirect" title="Edward III">Edward III</a>, and he died in <a href="/wiki/Berkeley_Castle" title="Berkeley Castle">Berkeley Castle</a> on 21 September, probably murdered on the orders of the new regime. Edward's relationship with Gaveston inspired <a href="/wiki/Christopher_Marlowe" title="Christopher Marlowe">Christopher Marlowe</a>'s 1592 play <a href="/wiki/Edward_II_(play)" title="Edward II (play)">Edward II</a>, along with other plays, films, novels and media. Many of these have focused on the possible sexual relationship between the two men. Edward's contemporaries criticised his performance as a king, noting his failures in Scotland and the oppressive regime of his later years, although 19th-century academics have argued that the growth of <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_England" title="Parliament of England">parliamentary institutions</a> during his reign was a positive development for England over the longer term. Debate has continued into the 21st century as to whether Edward was a lazy and incompetent king, or simply a reluctant and ultimately unsuccessful ruler. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Background">Background</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Edward_II_of_England&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Background">edit</a>]</div> Edward II was the fourth son<a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a> of <a href="/wiki/Edward_I,_King_of_England" class="mw-redirect" title="Edward I, King of England">Edward I, King of England</a>, <a href="/wiki/Lord_of_Ireland" class="mw-redirect" title="Lord of Ireland">Lord of Ireland</a>, and ruler of <a href="/wiki/Gascony" title="Gascony">Gascony</a> in south-western France (which he held as the <a href="/wiki/Feudal" class="mw-redirect" title="Feudal">feudal</a> vassal of the <a href="/wiki/King_of_France" class="mw-redirect" title="King of France">king of France</a>),<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> and <a href="/wiki/Eleanor,_Countess_of_Ponthieu" class="mw-redirect" title="Eleanor, Countess of Ponthieu">Eleanor, Countess of Ponthieu</a> in northern France.

href="/wiki/Piers_Gaveston" class="mw-redirect" title="Piers Gaveston">Piers Gaveston</a>.<a href="#cite_note-70">[63]</a> Gaveston was the son of one of the King's household knights whose lands lay adjacent to Gascony, and had himself joined Prince Edward's household in 1300, possibly on Edward I's instruction.<a href="#cite_note-71">[64]</a> The two got on well; Gaveston became a <a href="/wiki/Squire" title="Squire">squire</a> and was soon being referred to as a close companion of Edward, before being knighted by the King during the Feast of the Swans in 1306.<a href="#cite_note-72">[65]</a> The King then exiled Gaveston to <a href="/wiki/Gascony" title="Gascony">Gascony</a> in 1307 for reasons that remain unclear.<a href="#cite_note-73">[66]</a> According to one chronicler, Edward had asked his father to allow him to give Gaveston the County of <a href="/wiki/Ponthieu" title="Ponthieu">Ponthieu</a>, and the King responded furiously, pulling his son's hair out in great handfuls, before exiling Gaveston.<a href="#cite_note-74">[67]</a> The official court records, however, show Gaveston being only temporarily exiled, supported by a comfortable stipend; no reason is given for the order, suggesting that it may have been an act aimed at punishing the prince.<a href="#cite_note-75">[68]</a> The possibility that Edward had a sexual relationship with Gaveston or his later favourites has been extensively discussed by historians, complicated by the scarcity of surviving evidence to determine for certain the details of their relationships.<a href="#cite_note-76">[69]</a><a href="#cite_note-78">[h]</a> Homosexuality was fiercely condemned by the Church in 14th-century England, which equated it with <a href="/wiki/Heresy" title="Heresy">heresy</a>.<a href="#cite_note-79">[71]</a> Both men had sexual relationships with their wives, who bore them children; Edward also had an illegitimate son, and may have had an affair with his niece, <a href="/wiki/Eleanor_de_Clare" title="Eleanor de Clare">Eleanor de Clare</a>.<a href="#cite_note-80">[72]</a> The contemporary evidence supporting their homosexual relationship comes primarily from an anonymous chronicler in the 1320s who described how Edward "felt such love" for Gaveston that "he entered into a covenant of constancy, and bound himself with him before all other mortals with a bond of indissoluble love, firmly drawn up and fastened with a knot."<a href="#cite_note-81">[73]</a> The first specific suggestion that Edward engaged in sex with men was recorded in 1334, when <a href="/wiki/Adam_Orleton" title="Adam Orleton">Adam Orleton</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Bishop_of_Winchester" title="Bishop of Winchester">Bishop of Winchester</a>, was accused of having stated in 1326 that Edward was a "sodomite", although Orleton defended himself by arguing that he had meant that Edward's adviser, <a href="/wiki/Hugh_Despenser_the_Younger" title="Hugh Despenser the Younger">Hugh Despenser the Younger</a>, was a sodomite, rather than the late king.<a href="#cite_note-82">[74]</a> The <a href="/wiki/Meaux_Chronicle" class="mw-redirect" title="Meaux Chronicle">Meaux Chronicle</a> from the 1390s simply notes that Edward gave himself "too much to the vice of sodomy".<a href="#cite_note-83">[75]</a> Alternatively, Edward and Gaveston may have simply been friends with a close working relationship.<a href="#cite_note-84">[76]</a> Contemporary <a href="/wiki/Chronicler" class="mw-redirect" title="Chronicler">chronicler</a> comments are vaguely worded; Orleton's allegations were at least in part politically motivated, and are very similar to the highly politicised sodomy allegations made against <a href="/wiki/Pope_Boniface_VIII" title="Pope Boniface VIII">Pope Boniface VIII</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Knights_Templar" title="Knights Templar">Knights Templar</a> in 1303 and 1308, respectively.<a href="#cite_note-85">[77]</a> Later accounts by chroniclers of Edward's activities may trace back to Orleton's original allegations, and were certainly adversely coloured by the events at the end of Edward's reign.<a href="#cite_note-86">[78]</a> Such historians as <a href="/wiki/Michael_Prestwich" title="Michael Prestwich">Michael Prestwich</a> and Seymour Phillips have argued that the public nature of the English royal court would have made it unlikely that any homosexual affairs would have remained discreet; neither the contemporary Church, Edward's father nor his father-in-law appear to have made any adverse comments about Edward's sexual behaviour.<a href="#cite_note-87">[79]</a> A more recent theory, proposed by the historian <a href="/wiki/Pierre_Chaplais" title="Pierre Chaplais">Pierre Chaplais</a>, suggests that Edward and Gaveston entered into a bond of <a href="/wiki/Blood_brother" title="Blood brother">adoptive brotherhood</a>.<a href="#cite_note-88">[80]</a> Compacts of adoptive brotherhood, in which the participants pledged to support each other in a form of "brotherhood-in-arms", were not unknown between close male friends in the Middle Ages.<a href="#cite_note-89">[81]</a> Many chroniclers described Edward and Gaveston's relationship as one of brotherhood, and one explicitly noted that Edward had taken Gaveston as his adopted brother.<a href="#cite_note-90">[82]</a> Chaplais argues that the pair may have made a formal compact in either 1300 or 1301, and that they would have seen any later promises they made to separate or to leave each other as having been made under duress, and therefore invalid.<a href="#cite_note-91">[83]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_reign_(1307–1311)">Early reign (1307–1311)</h2>[<a

an excessive influence on royal policy, leading to complaints from one chronicler that there were "two kings reigning in one kingdom, the one in name and the other in deed".<a href="#cite_note-118">[107]</a> Accusations, probably untrue, were levelled at Gaveston that he had stolen royal funds and had purloined Isabella's wedding presents.<a href="#cite_note-119">[108]</a> Gaveston had played a key role at Edward's coronation, provoking fury from both the English and the French contingents about the earl's ceremonial precedence and magnificent clothes, and about Edward's apparent preference for Gaveston's company over that of Isabella at the feast.<a href="#cite_note-120">[109]</a> <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_England" title="Parliament of England">Parliament</a> met in February 1308 in a heated atmosphere.<a href="#cite_note-Phillips2011PP146-121">[110]</a> Edward was eager to discuss the potential for governmental reform, but the barons were unwilling to begin any such debate until the problem of Gaveston had been resolved.<a href="#cite_note-Phillips2011PP146-121">[110]</a> Violence seemed likely, but the situation was resolved through the mediation of the moderate <a href="/wiki/Henry_de_Lacy,_3rd_Earl_of_Lincoln" class="mw-redirect" title="Henry de Lacy, 3rd Earl of Lincoln">Henry de Lacy, 3rd Earl of Lincoln</a>, who convinced the barons to back down.<a href="#cite_note-122">[111]</a> A fresh parliament was held in April, where the barons once again criticised Gaveston, demanding his exile, this time supported by Isabella and the French monarchy.<a href="#cite_note-123">[112]</a> Edward resisted, but finally acquiesced, agreeing to send Gaveston to Aquitaine, under threat of <a href="/wiki/Excommunication" title="Excommunication">excommunication</a> by the Archbishop of Canterbury should he return.<a href="#cite_note-124">[113]</a> At the last moment, Edward changed his mind and instead sent Gaveston to

href="#cite_note-125">[114]</a> Edward called for a fresh military campaign for Scotland, but this idea was quietly abandoned, and instead the king and the barons met in August 1308 to discuss reform.<a href="#cite_note-126">[115]</a> Behind the scenes, Edward started negotiations to convince both <a href="/wiki/Pope_Clement_V" title="Pope Clement V">Pope Clement V</a> and Philip IV to allow Gaveston to return to England, offering in exchange to suppress the Knights Templar in England, and to release Bishop Langton from prison.<a href="#cite_note-127">[116]</a> Edward called a new meeting of members of the Church and key barons in January 1309, and the leading earls then gathered in March and April, possibly under the leadership of <a href="/wiki/Thomas,_2nd_Earl_of_Lancaster" title="Thomas, 2nd Earl of Lancaster">Thomas, 2nd Earl of Lancaster</a>.<a href="#cite_note-128">[117]</a> Another parliament followed, which refused to allow Gaveston to return to England, but offered to grant Edward additional taxes if he agreed to a programme of reform.<a href="#cite_note-129">[118]</a> Edward sent assurances to the Pope that the conflict surrounding Gaveston's role was at an end.<a href="#cite_note-130">[119]</a> On the basis of these promises, and procedural concerns about how the original decision had been taken, the Pope agreed to annul the Archbishop's threat to excommunicate Gaveston, thus opening the possibility of Gaveston's return.<a href="#cite_note-131">[120]</a> Gaveston arrived back in England in June, where he was met by Edward.<a href="#cite_note-132">[121]</a> At the parliament the next month, Edward made a range of concessions to placate those opposed to Gaveston, including agreeing to limit the powers of the <a

considered arrogant, and he took to referring to the earls by offensive names, including calling one of their more powerful members the "dog of Warwick".<a href="#cite_note-136">[125]</a> The Earl of Lancaster and Gaveston's enemies refused to attend parliament in 1310 because Gaveston would be present.<a href="#cite_note-137">[126]</a> Edward was facing increasing financial problems, owing £22,000 to his <a href="/wiki/Frescobaldi" title="Frescobaldi">Frescobaldi</a> Italian bankers, and facing protests about how he was using his right of <a href="/wiki/Prise" class="mw-redirect" title="Prise">prises</a> to acquire supplies for the war in Scotland.<a href="#cite_note-138">[127]</a> His attempts to raise an army for Scotland collapsed and the earls suspended the collection of the new taxes.<a href="#cite_note-139">[128]</a> The king and parliament met again in February 1310, and the proposed discussions of Scottish policy were replaced by debate of domestic problems.<a href="#cite_note-140">[129]</a> Edward was petitioned to abandon Gaveston as his counsellor and instead adopt the advice of 21 elected barons, termed <a href="/wiki/Ordainers" class="mw-redirect" title="Ordainers">Ordainers</a>, who would carry out a widespread reform of both the government and the royal household.<a href="#cite_note-141">[130]</a> Under huge pressure, he agreed to the proposal and the Ordainers were elected, broadly evenly split between reformers and conservatives.<a href="#cite_note-142">[131]</a> While the Ordainers began their plans for reform, Edward and Gaveston took a new army of around 4,700 men to Scotland, where the military situation had continued to deteriorate.<a href="#cite_note-143">[132]</a> Robert the Bruce declined to give battle and the campaign progressed ineffectually over the winter until supplies and money ran out in 1311, forcing Edward to return south.<a href="#cite_note-144">[133]</a> By now the Ordainers had drawn up their Ordinances for reform and Edward had little political choice but to give way and accept them in October.<a href="#cite_note-145">[134]</a> The <a href="/wiki/Ordinances_of_1311" title="Ordinances of 1311">Ordinances of 1311</a> contained clauses limiting the king's right to go to war or to grant land without parliament's approval, giving parliament control over the royal administration, abolishing the system of prises, excluding the Frescobaldi bankers, and introducing a system to monitor the adherence to the Ordinances.<a href="#cite_note-146">[135]</a> In addition, the Ordinances exiled Gaveston once again, this time with instructions that he should not be allowed to live anywhere within Edward's lands, including Gascony and Ireland, and that he should be stripped of his titles.<a href="#cite_note-147">[136]</a> Edward retreated to his estates at <a href="/wiki/Windsor_Castle" title="Windsor Castle">Windsor</a> and <a href="/wiki/Kings_Langley" title="Kings

practical administration, nor was he a particularly imaginative or effective politician.<a href="#cite_note-151">[140]</a> Edward responded to the baronial threat by revoking the Ordinances and recalling Gaveston to England, being reunited with him at York in January 1312.<a href="#cite_note-152">[141]</a> The barons were furious and met in London, where Gaveston was excommunicated by the Archbishop of Canterbury and plans were put in place to capture Gaveston and prevent him from fleeing to Scotland.<a href="#cite_note-153">[142]</a> Edward, Isabella and Gaveston left for Newcastle, pursued by Lancaster and his followers.<a href="#cite_note-154">[143]</a> Abandoning many of their belongings, the royal party fled by ship and landed at <a href="/wiki/Scarborough,_North_Yorkshire" title="Scarborough, North Yorkshire">Scarborough</a>, where Gaveston stayed while Edward and Isabella returned to York.<a href="#cite_note-155">[144]</a> After a short siege, Gaveston surrendered to the earls of Pembroke and <a href="/wiki/John_de_Warenne,_7th_Earl_of_Surrey" title="John de Warenne, 7th Earl of Surrey">Surrey</a>, on the promise that he would not be harmed.<a

considerably.<a href="#cite_note-Chaplais_1994_89-162">[151]</a> Edward was furious and deeply upset over what he saw as the murder of Gaveston; he made provisions for Gaveston's family, and intended to take revenge on the barons involved.<a href="#cite_note-163">[152]</a> The earls of Pembroke and Surrey were embarrassed and angry about Warwick's actions, and shifted their support to Edward in the aftermath.<a href="#cite_note-164">[153]</a> To Lancaster and his core of supporters, the execution had been both legal and necessary to preserve the stability of the kingdom.<a href="#cite_note-Chaplais_1994_89-162">[151]</a> Civil war again appeared likely, but in December, the Earl of Pembroke negotiated a potential peace treaty between the two sides, which would pardon the opposition barons for the killing of Gaveston, in exchange for their support for a fresh campaign in Scotland.<a href="#cite_note-165">[154]</a> Lancaster and Warwick, however, did not give the treaty their immediate approval, and further negotiations continued through most of 1313.<a href="#cite_note-166">[155]</a> Meanwhile, the Earl of Pembroke had been negotiating with France to resolve the long-standing disagreements over the administration of Gascony, and as part of this Edward and Isabella agreed to travel to Paris in June 1313 to meet with Philip IV.<a href="#cite_note-167">[156]</a> Edward probably hoped both to resolve the problems in the south of France and to win Philip's support in the dispute with the barons; for Philip it was an opportunity to impress his son-in-law with his power and wealth.<a href="#cite_note-168">[157]</a> It proved a spectacular visit, including a grand ceremony in which the two kings knighted Philip's sons and two hundred other men in <a href="/wiki/Notre-Dame_de_Paris" title="Notre-Dame de Paris">Notre-Dame de Paris</a>, large banquets along the <a href="/wiki/River_Seine" class="mw-redirect" title="River

found his political position greatly strengthened.<a href="#cite_note-171">[160]</a> After intense negotiation, the earls, including Lancaster and Warwick, came to a compromise in October 1313, fundamentally very similar to the draft agreement of the previous December.<a href="#cite_note-172">[161]</a> Edward's finances improved, thanks to parliament agreeing to the raising of taxes, a loan

strong.<a href="#cite_note-176">[165]</a> Meanwhile, Robert had besieged Stirling Castle, a key fortification in Scotland; its English commander had stated that unless Edward arrived by 24 June, he would surrender.<a href="#cite_note-Phillips2011PP223-175">[164]</a> News of this reached the king in late May, and he decided to speed up his march north from <a href="/wiki/Berwick-upon-Tweed"

as a king; the historian Michael Prestwich observes that he "was lazy and incompetent, liable to outbursts of temper over unimportant issues, yet indecisive when it came to major issues", echoed by Roy Haines' description of Edward as "incompetent and vicious", and as "no man of business".<a href="#cite_note-370">[348]</a> Edward did not just delegate routine government to his subordinates, but also higher level decision making, and <a href="/wiki/Pierre_Chaplais" title="Pierre Chaplais">Pierre Chaplais</a> argues that he "was not so much an incompetent king as a reluctant one", preferring to rule through a powerful deputy, such as Piers Gaveston or Hugh Despenser the Younger.<a href="#cite_note-371">[349]</a> Edward's willingness to promote his favourites had serious political consequences, although he also attempted to buy the loyalty of a wider grouping of nobles through grants of money and fees.<a href="#cite_note-372">[350]</a> He could take a keen interest in the minutiae of administration, however, and on occasion engaged in the details of a wide range of issues across England and his wider domains.<a href="#cite_note-373">[351]</a><a href="#cite_note-375">[w]</a> One of Edward's persistent challenges through most of his reign was a shortage of money; of the debts he inherited from his father, around £60,000 was still owing in the 1320s.<a href="#cite_note-376">[353]</a> Edward worked his way through many treasurers and other financial officials, few of whom stayed long, raising revenues through often unpopular taxes, and requisitioning goods using his right of prise.<a href="#cite_note-Prestwich2003PP94Phillips2011PP218-377">[354]</a> He also took out many loans, first through the Frescobaldi family, and then through his banker Antonio Pessagno.<a href="#cite_note-Prestwich2003PP94Phillips2011PP218-377">[354]</a> Edward took a strong interest in financial matters towards the end of his reign, distrusting his own officials and directly cutting back on the expenses of his own household.<a href="#cite_note-378">[355]</a> Edward was responsible for implementing royal justice through his network of judges and officials.<a href="#cite_note-379">[356]</a> It is uncertain to what extent Edward took a personal interest in dispensing justice, but he appears to have involved himself to some degree during the first part of his reign, and to have increasingly intervened in person after 1322.<a href="#cite_note-380">[357]</a> Edward made extensive use of <a href="/wiki/Roman_civil_law" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman civil law">Roman civil law</a> during his reign when arguing in defence of his causes and favourites, which may have attracted criticism from those who perceived this as abandoning the established principles of <a href="/wiki/English_common_law" class="mw-redirect" title="English common law">English common law</a>.<a href="#cite_note-381">[358]</a> Edward was also criticised by contemporaries for allowing the Despensers to exploit the royal justice system for their own ends; the Despensers certainly appear to have abused the system, although just how widely they did so is unclear.<a href="#cite_note-382">[359]</a> Amid the political turbulence, armed gangs and violence spread across England under Edward's reign, destabilising the position of many of the local <a href="/wiki/Gentry" title="Gentry">gentry</a>; much of Ireland similarly disintegrated into anarchy.<a href="#cite_note-383">[360]</a> Under Edward's rule, parliament's importance grew as a means of making political decisions and answering petitions, although as the historian Claire Valente notes, the gatherings were "still as much an event as an institution".<a href="#cite_note-384">[361]</a> After 1311, parliament began to include, in addition to the barons, the representatives of the <a href="/wiki/Knight" title="Knight">knights</a> and <a href="/wiki/Burgess_(title)" title="Burgess (title)">burgesses</a>, who in later years would constitute the "<a href="/wiki/House_of_Commons_of_England" title="House of Commons of England">commons</a>".<a href="#cite_note-385">[362]</a> Although parliament often opposed raising fresh taxes, active opposition to Edward came largely from the barons, rather than parliament itself, although the barons did seek to use the parliamentary meetings as a way of giving legitimacy to their long-standing political demands.<a href="#cite_note-386">[363]</a> After resisting it for many years, Edward began intervening in parliament in the second half of his reign to achieve his own political aims.<a href="#cite_note-387">[364]</a> It remains unclear whether he was deposed in 1327 by a formal gathering of parliament or simply a gathering of the political classes alongside an existing parliament.<a href="#cite_note-388">[365]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Court">Court</h3>[<a

Edward</figcaption></figure> Edward's royal court was itinerant, travelling around the country with him.<a href="#cite_note-389">[366]</a> When housed in Westminster Palace, the court occupied a complex of two halls, seven chambers and three <a href="/wiki/Chapel" title="Chapel">chapels</a>, along with other smaller rooms, but, due to the Scottish conflict, the court spent much of its time in Yorkshire and Northumbria.<a href="#cite_note-390">[367]</a> At the heart of the court was Edward's royal household, in turn divided into the "hall" and the "chamber"; the size of the household varied over time, but in 1317 was around five hundred people, including household knights, squires, and kitchen and transport staff.<a href="#cite_note-391">[368]</a> The household was surrounded by a wider group of courtiers, and appears to have also attracted a circle of prostitutes and criminal elements.<a href="#cite_note-392">[369]</a> Music and minstrels were very popular at Edward's court, but hunting appears to have been a much less important activity, and there was little emphasis on chivalric events.<a href="#cite_note-393">[370]</a> Edward was interested in buildings and paintings, but less so in literary works, which were not extensively sponsored at court.<a href="#cite_note-394">[371]</a> There was an extensive use of gold and silver plates, jewels and enamelling at court, which would have been richly decorated.<a href="#cite_note-Prestwich2006P69-395">[372]</a><a href="#cite_note-396">[x]</a> Edward kept a <a href="/wiki/Camel" title="Camel">camel</a> as a pet and, as a

the sick, although he did this less often than his predecessors.<a href="#cite_note-Prestiwch2006P67-401">[376]</a> Edward remained close to the Dominican Order, which had helped to educate him, and followed their advice in asking for papal permission to be anointed with the Holy Oil of St. Thomas of Canterbury in 1319; this request was refused, causing the king some embarrassment.<a

disagreed.<a href="#cite_note-404">[379]</a> With Clement's support, Edward attempted to gain the financial support of the English Church for his military campaigns in Scotland, including taxation and borrowing money against the funds gathered for the crusades.<a href="#cite_note-405">[380]</a> The Church did relatively little to influence or moderate Edward's behaviour during his reign, possibly because of the bishops' self-interest and concern for their own protection.<a href="#cite_note-406">[381]</a> <a href="/wiki/Pope_John_XXII" title="Pope John XXII">Pope John XXII</a>, elected in 1316,

Scotland, Edward agreed to recommence paying the annual Papal tribute, which had been first agreed to by King <a href="/wiki/John,_King_of_England" title="John, King of England">John</a> in 1213; Edward soon ceased the payments, however, and never offered his homage, another part of the 1213 agreement.<a href="#cite_note-Phillips_2011_263-407">[382]</a> In 1325 Edward asked Pope John to

One line of argument stemmed from the 1259 treaty agreed by Edward's grandfather, Henry III, under which Henry had agreed to give homage for Gascony; Edward's lawyers observed that this treaty, which underpinned Edward's 1303 treaty with France, had been a bilateral agreement between the two kings, rather than a conventional feudal agreement. As such, Edward's offering homage for Gascony was dependent on the French crown delivering on its own commitments, rather than an absolute duty. Edward's lawyers also argued that Isabella had a potential claim to the lands in the south under customary French law. When granting Gascony to Isabella, Phillip IV appeared to have been dividing up his lands, as was customary at the time, rather than giving a conditional grant, which meant that Gascony was an <a href="/wiki/Allod" title="Allod">allod</a>, Edward's personal property, and as such not subject to the French king's laws on the carrying of weapons or money.<a href="#cite_note-263">[251]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-274"><a href="#cite_ref-274">^</a> Historian Roy Haines stresses the lack of evidence for any earlier relationship, while Paul Doherty argues that there is no evidence for them having been closely involved before December 1325, although he suspects that they may have been friends by 1323.

The same jury found that William Ockley and Thomas Gurney had been responsible for the death. Ockley was not heard of again, but Gurney fled and was pursued across Europe, where he was captured in Naples; he died as he was being returned to England. John Maltravers was not formally accused of murdering Edward II but left for Europe and from there contacted Edward III, possibly to make a deal over what he knew about the events of 1327; after a period in exile he was ultimately pardoned and given permission to return to England in 1351.<a href="#cite_note-323">[307]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-335"><a href="#cite_ref-335">^</a> The historian Joel Burden notes that this delay in burial was not unusual for the period; the bodies of many other royalty, including Edward I and Isabella of France, remained unburied for a similar period.<a href="#cite_note-334">[317]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-338"><a href="#cite_ref-338">^</a> Although it was normal for Westminster Abbey to be used to bury English monarchs by the 14th century, the practice was not as formalised as it later became.<a href="#cite_note-337">[319]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-347"><a href="#cite_ref-347">^</a> Earlier scholarship had argued that the effigy on the tomb was an idealised carving, although more recent work has put more emphasis on its likely resemblance to Edward II.<a href="#cite_note-346">[327]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-358"><a href="#cite_ref-358">^</a> Initial sources either did not suggest that Edward had been murdered at all, or suggested that he had been suffocated or strangled. The first sources to begin to successfully popularise the "anal rape" narrative were the longer Brut and Polychronicon chronicles in the mid-1330s and 1340s, respectively. One of Edward's biographers, Seymour Phillips, notes that while the hot iron story could be true, it is much more likely that he was suffocated, noting that the account of the red-hot iron seems suspiciously similar to earlier accounts of the murder of King <a href="/wiki/Edmund_Ironside" title="Edmund Ironside">Edmund Ironside</a>; the similarities to this earlier story are also highlighted by <a href="/wiki/Ian_Mortimer_(historian)" title="Ian Mortimer (historian)">Ian Mortimer</a> and <a href="/wiki/Pierre_Chaplais" title="Pierre Chaplais">Pierre Chaplais</a>. His other biographer, Roy Haines, makes no reference at all to the red-hot poker story. Ian Mortimer, who argues that Edward did not die in 1327, naturally disputes the "anal rape" story. Paul Doherty notes that modern historians take the "lurid description of Edward's death with more than a pinch of salt". <a href="/wiki/Michael_Prestwich" title="Michael Prestwich">Michael Prestwich</a> has noted that most of Geoffrey le Baker's story "belongs to the world of romance rather than of history", but has also noted that Edward "very possibly" died from the insertion of a red-hot iron.<a href="#cite_note-357">[337]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-369"><a href="#cite_ref-369">^</a> For a critique of the theory that Edward II survived his imprisonment, see David Carpenter's review in the London Review of Books, and Roy Haines's biography of Edward.<a href="#cite_note-368">[347]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-375"><a href="#cite_ref-375">^</a> Most historians suggest that Edward increased his engagement with administration in the 1320s, although Michael Prestwich suggests that many of Edward's later correspondence on governmental issues were written for him by the Despensers. Generally, current historians have tended to stress Edward's later role in governance, even if he did not necessarily prove to be a competent or successful administrator. Miri Rubin argues that he was "deeply involved" in governance and portrays Edward's abilities sympathetically; Anthony Musson stresses Edward's later involvement in the legal system; Seymour Phillips argues that Edward was more closely involved in governmental business than has been previously suggested, although his interest was "sporadic and unpredictable", and heavily influenced by his advisors; Roy Haines notes Edward's "idiosyncrasy" in engaging in business, and the dominant role of the Despensers in setting policy, but stops short of Prestwich's position.<a href="#cite_note-374">[352]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-396"><a href="#cite_ref-396">^</a> Among his more esoteric valuables, Edward had a pitcher, allegedly made from a <a href="/wiki/Griffin" title="Griffin">griffin</a>'s egg.<a href="#cite_note-Prestwich2006P69-395">[372]</a> </li> <li id="cite_note-400"><a href="#cite_ref-400">^</a> The historian Miri Rubin argues that the displays show a lack of royal decorum. The historian Michael Prestwich notes that these court events imply to many "a decadent extravagance, fitting the familiar stereotype of the king", but goes on to argue that the court was really "conventional, and perhaps even rather dull"; Seymour Phillips questions if the naked French dancers were genuinely extravagant or simply intended to fit in with local French royal culture.<a href="#cite_note-399">[375]</a> </li> </ol></div></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Edward_II_of_England&action=edit&section=39" title="Edit section: References">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1239543626"><div class="reflist reflist-columns references-column-width" style="column-width: 25em;"> <ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a> <a href="#CITEREFHaines2003">Haines 2003</a>, p. 3. </li> <li id="cite_note-2"><a href="#cite_ref-2">^</a> <a href="#CITEREFPrestwich1988">Prestwich 1988</a>, pp. 13–14. </li> <li id="cite_note-3"><a href="#cite_ref-3">^</a> <a href="#CITEREFPrestwich2003">Prestwich 2003</a>, p. 33. </li> <li id="cite_note-4"><a href="#cite_ref-4">^</a> <a href="#CITEREFPrestwich2003">Prestwich 2003</a>, pp. 5–6. </li> <li id="cite_note-5"><a href="#cite_ref-5">^</a> <a href="#CITEREFPrestwich2003">Prestwich 2003</a>, p. 38;
