Louis I, calledthe Lame (1279 – 1341) was a Frenchprince du sang, Count ofClermont-en-Beauvaisis andLa Marche and the firstDuke of Bourbon, as well as briefly the titularKing of Thessalonica from 1320 to 1321.

Early life

[edit]

Louis was born in 1279 in the County ofClermont. He was the son ofRobert, Count of Clermont, who was himself the youngest son of KingLouis IX of France.[1] Louis's mother wasBeatrix of Burgundy, the heiress to the Lordship of Bourbon and a granddaughter ofHugh IV, Duke of Burgundy, through her father,John of Burgundy.[1]

Military career

[edit]

In his early military career, Louis fought for the French army in its defeat at theBattle of the Golden Spurs (1302)[2] and at theBattle of Mons-en-Pévèle (1304),[3] surviving both engagements. In 1310, King Philip IV appointed him to the prestigious office ofGrand Chamberlain of France. Louis took a formalcrusading vow in 1316, becoming acrucesignatus ("one signed with the cross"), and in connection with this pledge, he founded a chivalric confraternity, the Order of the Holy Sepulchre.[4]

Louis's crusading ambitions grew when, on September 13, 1318, King Philip V designated him captain-general of a planned crusade. However, this effort was brought to a halt in 1319 when the Ghibelline-controlled navy of Genoa destroyed the Franco-Papal fleet being assembled for the expedition.[5] In 1320, Louis attempted to purchase the purely titular rights to the "Kingdom of Thessalonica" fromOdo IV, Duke of Burgundy, for 40,000 livres.Philip of Taranto intervened with an identical offer that Odo accepted.[6] To resolve the political tension from this, a subsequent agreement was made to betroth Louis's daughter, Beatrice, to Philip's son.[6]

In 1327, KingCharles IV arranged a strategic exchange with Louis, persuading him to cede the County of Clermont to the crown in return for theCounty of La Marche and the elevation of his primary holding, Bourbon, to aduchy-peerage.[7] After Charles IV's death, Louis's crucial support forPhilip VI's claim to the throne was rewarded in 1331 when the new king restored the County of Clermont to him, which he held in addition to La Marche and his new duchy.[8] Louis remained central to French crusading plans until 1336, when PopeBenedict XII cancelled the venture due to the impending outbreak of theHundred Years' War with England.[4]

Duke Louis is reported by chroniclers to have suffered from a debilitating psychological condition, with historical accounts noting episodes of severe mental infirmity. This trait is believed by many modern historians to have been hereditary. Similar patterns of recurring mental illness were documented in his granddaughter,Joanna of Bourbon; her son, KingCharles VI of France, who famously suffered from bouts of psychosis; and Charles's grandson, KingHenry VI of England, who experienced periods of complete catatonic breakdown.[citation needed]

Family and children

[edit]

In 1310, Louis marriedMary of Avesnes,[9] daughter ofJohn II of Avesnes,Count of Hainaut andHolland byPhilippa of Luxembourg. They had:

With Jeanne de Bourbon-Lancy, dame de Clessy, Louis had several illegitimate children:

  • Jean (ca. 1297–1375), "bâtard de Bourbon", knight, seigneur ofRochefort,[16]Ébreuil, Beçay le Guérant,Bellenave,Jenzat, Serrant and la Bure, advisor to the dukes of Berry and Bourbon, lieutenant du Forez, married Agnès Chaleu for his third wife;
  • "N" (eldest daughter), "bâtarde de Bourbon", married in 1317 to Girard of Châtillon-en-Bazois;
  • Guy (vers 1299–1349), "bâtard de Bourbon", seigneur of Clessy, la Ferté-Chauderon and Montpensier (legitimized in 1346, but that same year he was again bastardized). Married in 1315 Agnès of Chastellus, then between 1330 and 1333 Isabelle of Chastelperron;
  • Jeannette, "bâtarde de Bourbon", married in 1310 to Guichard of Chastellus.

Death and burial

[edit]

Duke Louis I died in 1341.

He was buried in the church of theCouvent des Jacobins inParis. The priory was suppressed during theFrench Revolution, and the church was demolished in the early 19th century, at which time his tomb was lost or destroyed.
