He took upon himself the regency of France and retained it until his death, being also the heir to the crowns of both kingdoms. He is often described as an able administrator and cunning diplomat, setting aside Bedford\u2019s significant military experience and the facts of his engagement in military operations in his capacity as regent. The paper analyses such episodes \u2014 the journ\u00e9e of Ivry followed by the battle of Verneuil (1424), the confrontation at Mont\u00e9pilloy (1429), the sieges of Meulan (1423) and Lagny-sur-Marne (1432) \u2014 and the role played by the regent on the battlefield. It appears that Bedford personally took command of the armies when facing a serious threat to the Lancastrian power in France or their control of Paris. It may be assumed, therefore, that for Bedford, his participation in military operations was not a way of earning military glory, but rather a part of his obligations and responsibilities as a ruler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Keywords<\/em>: Hundred Years War; John of Lancaster, duke of Bedford (1389\u20131435); Lancastrian France; Military leadership; Regency.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","generate_page_header":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":{"0":"post-51852","1":"page","2":"type-page","3":"status-publish","5":"no-featured-image-padding"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51852","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51852"}],"version-history":[{"count":49,"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51852\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":53194,"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51852\/revisions\/53194"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/voxmediiaevi.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51852"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
