Introduction: Good and Bad Kings -- Anjou, Bar, Lorraine and Provence -- Naples: 'the ItalianWasp-Nest' -- The End of the Hundred Years War -- Renâe's Court -- The Dissolution of Renâe's apanage -- Conclusion:The Paradox of the 'Good' King.

Renâe of Anjou is an engaging and complex figure and his qualities as a ruler controversial. A great French prince and claimant to the Crown of Naples, his career began with disastrous defeats by Burgundy and Aragon. Yet the marriage of his daughter Margaret to Henry VI of Englandconfirmed the great influence his family enjoyed with Charles VII of France; he accompanied Charles on the majorcampaign that marked the endof the Hundred Years War. During the 1440s and 1450s he ruled his domains wisely, staged three great tournaments and founded a knightly order, establishing he glamorous reputation of his court, and composed devotional and chivalrous works. Renâe and his martial son, Johnof Calabria, struggled to deep their favoured position under Louis XI of France. John's premature death doomed the Angevin dynasty to extinction but Renâe's diplomatic response to Louis's aggression during his final years saved his subjects from the horrors of civil war and ensured his reputation as a cultivated prince of peace.
