The first treatise, Pour ce que plusieurs, was written in 1464 by a French diplomat and administrator, Guillaume Cousinot, and is most famous for its part in establishing the myth that the royal succession in France was determined by a otiose law code of the Franks, the Salic Law. The second is an English response to these arguments, A declaracion of the trew and dewe title of Henrie VIII, written during the reign of Henry VIII (1509-1547). The  declaracion provides valuable evidence of English reactions to the rhetoric and propaganda generated by the French crown at the end of the middle ages.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e Editorial principles\u003cbr\u003e Pour ce que plusieurs\u003cbr\u003e A declaracion of the trewe and dewe title of Henry VIII\u003cbr\u003e Appendix I: College of Arms of Ms Arundel 39 (MS T)\u003cbr\u003e Appendix II: Manuscript descriptions\u003cbr\u003e Appendix III: A lost manuscript of Pour ce que plusieurs\u003cbr\u003e index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: European history [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on European history\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22European%20history%20%5BHBJD%5D%22\"\u003eHBJD\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45912975704344,"sku":"9780521873901","price":43.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9780521873901i_29117453-f754-4807-b4e5-4bc0a25c5325.jpg?v=1691358711","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/debating-the-hundred-years-war-volume-29-pour-ce-que-plusieurs-la-loy-salicque-and-a-declaration-of-the-trew-and-dewe-title-of-henry-viii-hardback-9780521873901","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
