Soldiers, Villagers and Politics: Military Violence
and the Jacquerie of 1358
Justine Firnhaber-Baker
The Jacquerie of 1358, in which the rural inhabitants of the Île-de-France, Picardy,
Champagne, and parts of Normandy rose up and attacked the nobility, remains a hotly
contested incident, but the importance of soldiers as a cause of the revolt is one of the few things
on which scholars agree. Siméon Luce, whose book remains the only scholarly monograph
on the event, argued that the Jacquerie was a pre-emptive effort, coordinated with anti-royal
rebels in Paris, to destroy castles that had been recently slated for garrisoning by soldiers, who
would brutalize the countryside’s inhabitants and threaten the rebels’ position in Paris 1. Jules
Flammermont – who agreed with Luce on hardly anything about the Jacquerie – also thought
that soldiers were at the root of it, though he imagined the matter more simply: the Jacquerie
was an unplanned rising, accidentally set off by a fight between soldiers and peasants, which
gave an outlet to the peasants’ centuries of accumulated hatred against the nobility 2. More
recent historians continue to be divided as to whether the Jacquerie was coordinated with or
even directed by Paris or a spontaneous uprising organic to the countryside 3. But all hold that
the presence of soldiers created intolerable insecurity for rural inhabitants who were moved,
whether by calculated self-interest, outside manipulation, or drunken bloodlust, to oppose
the pillagers with violence. As Nicholas Wright concludes, ‘there can be little doubt that it
was the presence of large numbers of soldiers … which was the spark of the revolt’ 4.
There is ample evidence that soldiers, many of them foreign-born mercenaries, had
become a serious threat to health and safety in many parts of France by 1358. Due to the
lull in hostilities that followed the Battle of Poitiers in 1356, where the English resoundingly
defeated the French and took King Jean II captive, thousands of soldiers found themselves
without commanders or wages. Many of these then formed independent companies,
occupying castles, pillaging for their own profit, brutalizing local inhabitants, and holding
rural settlements to ransom 5. The situation was made worse for the common people by the

failure of both the crown and the nobility to exercise effective authority. In the months
and years after Poitiers, royal government was weak or even simply absent. In Paris, the
adolescent Dauphin Charles was nominally in control, but in fact had to cede most of
his power to a coalition led by the prévôt of the Paris merchants Étienne Marcel and his
close associate Bishop Robert le Coq of Laon 6. Dedicated to the cause of reform and good
governance, this coalition nevertheless impeded the normal working of government by
purges and the substitution of inexperienced men for those whom they deemed corrupt 7.
When the uneasy modus vivendi between this coalition and the Dauphin broke down in the
winter and spring of 1358, the two sides began preparing for war. Adding to insecurity was
King Charles II of Navarre, who possessed both a reasonable claim to the French throne and
a large number of soldiers, and who maintained a threateningly high profile in northern
France 8, occupying much of Normandy and the Beauce and (at least initially) allying closely
with the Dauphin’s enemies in Paris 9. As for the nobility, their legitimacy had been seriously

harmed by perceived cowardice at Poitiers, and there was a general feeling that they had not
only abdicated their responsibility to protect the laboratores, but were also joining in the
pillaging themselves 10.

Soldiers, Villagers and Politics 103
The Jacquerie as an outburst of rural rage against peasants’ traditional protectors – the
nobility – for the failure to defend them from the violence of soldiers thus makes a great deal
of contextual sense. There is, as we shall see, substantial evidence of rustic anger against
aristocrats and a feeling that local communities had to take on the responsibility of defense
for themselves in the absence of both royal and seigneurial protection. This is not dissimilar
to the circumstances that led the famous peasant leader Grand Ferré and his community to
defend themselves (though with royal permission) against English troops in 1359 11. Comparing
the geography and timing of the Jacquerie to that of the various military bands at work in
northern France from 1356 to the revolt’s beginning in late May 1358, though, shows that few
communities that participated in the Jacquerie had direct experience of military violence.
Most of them could only have feared what they had heard about second-hand. Attention to
place and time suggests rather that the Jacquerie was closely related to the strategic aims of
the Parisians, whose con��ict with the Dauphin – and his close allies, the nobility – had come
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
to the boiling point by mid May. While this should not lead us to discount evidence about
the fear of soldiers, it is important to consider how the leaders of the revolt used that fear,
and how the language of fear is deployed in the documents, to motivate or excuse the acts
that the Jacques committed.
Localizing Insecurity, 1355-1358
The insecurity upon which the Jacquerie has often been blamed was not localized to
the revolt’s heartlands in the Île-de-France, Picardy, and Champagne. Rather, this insecurity
was a condition that plagued many parts of rural France much more seriously than the
Jacquerie’s epicenters and which had been growing for several years before the revolt. Much
of it was related to the royal armies directly involved in the Hundred Years War. Indeed,
real panic about soldiers was first stirred up by the famous chevauchée in Languedoc that
Edward, Prince of Wales, had undertaken in autumn of 1355, which had terrified the whole
realm and advertised traditional authorities’ impotence 12. The king’s own soldiers were not
much better behaved; evidence of their depredations can be found in a famous clause of
the ordonnance promulgated by the Estates General assembly of that territory in late 1355,
which authorized individuals and communities to resist pillaging soldiers (soudoiers)
forcibly and on their own authority 13. When Charles of Navarre was arrested in April of 1356
under accusations of treachery, a new war opened up in Normandy under the command of
Charles’s brother Philip, who allied with England and declared war on France in May 14. It was
a new chevauchée by the Prince of Wales in August that drew French royal troops away from
the war in Normandy and led them, disastrously, to Poitiers in September 15.

That military disaster, the captive King’s absence, and the Dauphin’s inexperience,
obviously did nothing to ameliorate the situation. After Poitiers, the sites of violence became
more numerous and spread north and eastward under the auspices both of royal troops
and of less formally constituted groups acting for their own profit. To summarize Jonathan
Sumption’s narrative synthesis of the period 16: In the winter of 1356-1357, the Navarrese and
the English occupied western Normandy, and Philippe of Navarre rode east in January as far
as l’Aigle 17 before heading South through the Chartrain and then returning to Normandy,
a venture that panicked the capital. English adventurers, eager to make their fortunes by
pillage, poured into France. By the summer of 1357, numerous bands, not clearly subject
to any higher authority, spread out through Normandy, occupying the small fortresses and
strong places of the duchy. Anglo-Navarrese troops seized Hon��eur 18, thus taking control
of the Seine estuary, and another 1,400 troops arrived in the autumn, enabling Navarrese
control of most of that river’s southern bank. Southwest of Paris, the Beauce came under
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
attack. A man called Ruffin led his bands on pillaging expeditions between the Loire and the
Seine, attacking at least a dozen towns and villages.
Over the winter of 1357-1358, Paris and the Île-de-France began to feel seriously
threatened: the Dauphin’s own soldiers pillaged the Chartrain in lieu of wages 19. The south-
west was also victimized by troops associated with Charles of Navarre under the command
of an adventurer called James Pipe. Pipe’s men took over the castle at Épernon 20 some 30
km north of Chartres, from which they ravaged the surrounding countryside that spring,
moving east to the Gâtinais in May, burning Nemours and damaging Grez 21. To the east in
Champagne there were additional troop movements. In December 1357, the royal bailiff of
Provins and Meaux had to pay gens d’armes to deal with ‘enemies’, as well as to visit certain
maisons fors near Provins from which soldiers had damaged the countryside 22. In early
April, after an assembly dominated by nobles at Provins, the Dauphin broke decisively with
Paris and began military preparations to take back the city, requisitioning the castles at
Montereau-Fault-Yonne and Meaux 23. The townsmen’s irritation at the garrison at Meaux
is well known, and at Montereau, the commander later received remission for holding to
ransom the countryside’s merchants and bonnes gens and stealing their goods 24.

Jacques and Soldiers
Thus, in late May 1358, when the Jacquerie broke out, the countryside to the west, south,
and east of the Île-de-France, running in a rough crescent from Hon��eur to Nemours
with outposts in Montereau and Meaux, was occupied by troops, including men fighting
for the French crown or the Anglo-Navarrese, as well as independent bands without clear
allegiances. Only the regions to the north/northeast in a triangle running from Paris to the
Vexin and Picardy, had not been subject to pillaging soldiers in the aftermath of Poitiers.
These regions are, of course, exactly the area from which we have the most evidence for
participation in the Jacquerie. Stretching from Auffay in eastern Normandy to the eastern
Amiénois and running south to Soissons, the uprisings mentioned in the sources, the bulk
of which are letters of remission for Jacques, were undertaken by people in the northern Île-
de-France, the Beauvaisis, the county of Clermont, and Picardy 25. A thick line of implicated

villages snakes up the River Oise from Pontoise to Compiègne, and another runs down the
Thérain between Beauvais and Montataire 26. Despite Luce’s assertion that it was ‘precisely
in the regions [in which soldiers had been pillaging] that the Jacquerie would erupt’ 27, in
fact, when the revolt broke out at Saint-Leu-d’Esserent 28 and Cramoisy in the Beauvaisis, it

of the garrison at Creil (Oise, ch.-l. de con), a fortress at the con��uence of the Thérain and Oise, for
example, in fact date to 1359. Also post-Jacquerie are the episodes of routier violence in some letters of
remission he cited and the scenes the famous peasants Guillaume l’Aloue and Grand-Ferré’s bravery
in the supposed Jean de Venette’s chronicle (ed. Beaune 2011, 206-215). For Flammermont’s part, his
assertion that the Dauphin’s troops ravaged ‘the Beauce, the Île-de-France and the Beauvaisis’ is not
supported by the source he cited, Étienne Marcel’s letter to the Dauphin, which as mentioned above,
complains about soldiers to Paris’s south and west (Flammermont 1879, 124).

brought large-scale violence to one of the few regions of northern France that had not yet
known it.
In only three instances on the periphery of this area can we substantiate participation
in the Jacquerie against existing garrisons of soldiers. There is one explicit, if isolated case
from western Picardy, where one Simon Doublet, who served as captain of several villages
during the Jacquerie, received a letter of royal pardon, which recounts how the ravages of
‘the English and other enemies’ led to the communities’ decision to destroy noble castles:
Since, in order to consider how each region could rightfully best resist the English and
other enemies of the Realm of France, who had been pillaging and destroying the countryside
from the castles and fortresses which they had taken …, the inhabitants of Grandvilliers, Poix
and Lignières, recently assembled on the field in arms … and by common decision elected
Simon Doublet of Grandvilliers their captain, giving him orders … to go attack some castles,
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
houses, places, and fortresses of some of the nobles of those frontiers and regions… 29
It is possible that the fortress at Poix had already fallen into the hands of the English
by May 1358 and that the villagers were reacting to this 30, but the other two cases from the
northwest are more ambiguous: According to the Norman chronicler, during the Jacquerie
there were attacks against the fortresses at Villepreux and Trappes, both of which the royal
chronicler reported as falling into Anglo-Navarrese hands in late 1357 31. The role of military
violence against local inhabitants as a motivation for this attack is unclear, though, as the
Norman chronicler stated that it was done at the behest of Étienne Marcel and a later judicial
source reports that the violence at Trappes was directed not at Anglo-Navarrese soldiers, but
at the house of a French knight ‘whom the Parisians detested’ 32.
In Champagne, where an area around Saint-Dizier saw significant participation in the
Jacquerie 33, a cluster of remissions issued to individuals in the bailliage of Vitry attests to

30 Luce 1895, 26 argued this was the case, but the arrêt he cited leaves the date ambiguous, noting only
the year the castle’s lord left it to serve in the royal army and that the castle was taken in consequence
(published in Timbal, ed., 1961, 286-287). The Chronique des quatre premiers Valois, however, lists Poix
among the castles taken by Navarrese forces in the autumn of 1358 (Luce, ed. 1862, 87).

the fear of soldiers in similar terms to that of Simon Doublet’s remission. One relates that
local villages, now standing accused of participation in the revolt, had assembled for self-
defense since was ‘common knowledge through the whole region of Champagne, that the
Lorrainers and the Germans or other enemies of the realm meant to pillage and burn the
region’ 34. Another remission explained that local communities were allowed to assemble
‘for the tuition and defense of the parish and resistance to the enemies’ and that when the
village of Bailly-aux-Forges actually did so, it was because ‘many soldiers committed many
excesses in some towns of these bailliages’ 35. In a third case, the royal pardon states that
‘during the commotions [i.e. the Jacquerie] in various areas of the realm last summer, the
inhabitants of numerous Perthois villages assembled in order to decide how they could best
resist the evil designs of some foreigners, whom they mistrusted, as well as the nobles of the
realm’ 36. In these cases, as for Poix, there is some corroborating evidence of the presence of
soldiers, and it is possible that the Dauphin’s entourage and those of the noblemen riding
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
to join his forces had created some disturbances 37. But it is notable that only one of the
three cases from Vitry indicates that the community was responding to violence that had
already occurred. The presence of soldiers was a fairly recent occurrence of limited extent
in Champagne relative to the occupation of other territories. Indeed, when the Dauphin
moved in April to garrison the eastern castles, Étienne Marcel wrote to him to complain that
this area was not in need of defense because the soldiers causing problems were all to the
southwest, between Paris and Chartres: les gens d’armes qui sont en vostre compagnie fussent
mielx à vostre honneur entre Paris et Chartres, là où sont les ennemis que là où vous estes, qui
est paiis de pais et sans guerre 38.
This southwestern area of such concern to Marcel did witness significant participation in
the Jacquerie 39, and there is some specific overlap here between the movements of soldiers
and the revolt. Of the near dozen places that Jean le Bel and Froissart listed as overrun by
‘Ruffin’ and his band in the southern Île-de-France, three of them, Étampes, Châtres, and
Montlhéry, were in the path of people who later rose during the Jacquerie 40. The garrison

of the château at Montereau, which had been requisitioned by the Dauphin in April, was
later remitted for pillaging merchants and bonnes gens du plat pays during, as well as before
and after, the Jacquerie, as were members of the garrison of Étampes, by then also back in
royal hands 41. The village of Boissy-sous-Saint-Yon ��ed before James Pipe’s troops on 15 May
1358 and was later remitted for participation in the Jacquerie 42. But it is not necessarily the
case that these incidents should be understood as part of the Jacquerie. The best candidate
for such overlap is at Étampes, where the bonnes gens, tired of being murdered, pillaged,
and raped by the garrison, attacked the castle. There is no extant remission issued to them
specifically for this act, but the inhabitants of the county of Étampes were included in the
general remission issued for the Jacquerie and the noble reaction to it, and the remission
for the soldiers who repulsed the attack on the castle cites this plenary remission as part of
the rationale for forgiveness 43. In the other cases, the relationship between actual military
violence and Jacquerie is much less clear. The documents draw no connection between the
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
troops present in the area and the participation of the inhabitants of Châtres and Montlhéry
in the uprisings. At Boissy-sous-Saint-Yon, the inhabitants ran from rather than fought
against Pipe’s men, an act recounted in a different document than their letter of remission
for the Jacquerie and which makes no appearance even as an excuse for that violence.
The evidence for firsthand experience of violence at the hands of military men by
communities involved in the Jacquerie is thus fairly limited. Most of the areas that played
host to the revolt were relatively unaffected by troops’ predations, and even in those places
where they did overlap, we have only a few instances in which behavior understood as revolt
was directed at soldiers 44. Furthermore, if we look at regions farther to the south and west
that we know to have been certainly and significantly affected by military violence against
civilians between 1356-1358, there is no evidence of revolt, though there is a fair amount of
evidence of resistance to soldiers. In the winter of 1358, for example, villagers attacked the
stipendarii of Bruyères-le-Châtel in the Chartrain, for failure to pay for their provisions 45,
and south of Sens, the inhabitants of Branches attacked some rude vagabonds out of fear
that they were depredatores seu pillatores 46. In Cravant, near Auxerre, the inhabitants, who
had been terrorized by the Anglo-Navarrese, attacked and imprisoned a knight and his men

Châtres (Luce 1895, no. 30). See discussion below.
44 Guy Fourquin sought to explain this discrepancy with reference to the poor grain prices that those in
the Beauvaisis had experienced ‘since 1315’, but obviously, as Leguai pointed out, a circumstance that
had already endured for four decades hardly explains why the revolt broke out just then (Fourquin 1964,
233; Leguai 1982, 55).

because they ‘thought that they were enemies, or at least not honest people’ (ennemis, ou
au moins non estre bonnes genz) 47. None of these villages was later involved in the Jacquerie.
The Targets of the Jacquerie: Nobles and their Fortresses
The Jacquerie is differentiated from communal efforts of self-defense or vengeance not
only by geography, but also by the language the documents use for their targets. At Boissy,
Bruyères, Branches, and Cravant, the villagers attacked soldiers, characterized as such by
military, moral, or political terms: stipendarii, pillatores, depredatores, inimici/ennemis. By
contrast, remissions for communities and individuals involved in the Jacquerie identify
the targets almost without exception as nobles and their property. The usual formula
in the Jacquerie remissions speaks of the uprising undertaken by the people of the open
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
countryside (gens du plat pays) against the nobility (les nobles) – or, less commonly, as the
con��ict that occurred between the nonnobles and the nobles – during which their fortresses
and goods were destroyed 48. For the royal lawyers and clerks who redacted remissions, the
people victimized by the Jacquerie were different from those targeted at Bruyères or Cravant,
or at least, what was important about them in that context was different. But semantics do
not tell the whole story here, for the line between soldier and noble was naturally a blurry one
in a society dominated by a military aristocracy 49. Indeed we can see such con��ation at Poix,
where the depredations of ‘the English and other enemies of the Realm of France’ incited the
villagers to ‘attack some castles, houses, places, and fortresses of some of the nobles’ 50, and
in the Perthois villages, where people were anxious not only about ‘some foreigners’ but also
about ‘the nobles of the realm’ 51. And if actual military violence did not incite social revolt,
anxiety about the potential of such violence could have led communities, who had grown
mistrustful of traditional authorities, to take prophylactic action.
That the Jacquerie erupted to prevent the garrisoning of castles was, of course, a central
element of Luce’s explanation for the revolt. He blamed it on a decision taken at the assembly
of the Estates of Vermandois at Compiègne in early May to put the region’s fortresses in a
state of readiness, which meant that the castles would soon be home to soldiers who would
pillage the countryside 52. Flammermont argued that Luce was wrong about the importance
of this decision because the provision in question was not substantially different from similar

as Jacquerie document, but there is no indication in the text itself that these deeds were part of the
Jacquerie, and it is not clear from the document even when it happened. Note that bonnes genz may
not simply mean good people but rather common-born local inhabitants.

clauses contained in promulgations of earlier such assemblies, which had not provoked an
outpouring of rustic fury 53. Flammermont’s point is well taken, but as Luce recognized, the
clause also ordered the destruction of those fortresses whose possessors would not or could
repair them 54. This stipulation had also been part of earlier promulgations, and in fact, it
appears that the Dauphin and the coalition led by Étienne Marcel had pursued a programme
of inspection and destruction or reparation of castles over the autumn and winter of 1357-
1358, specifically so that they could not become the redoubt of the ‘enemies’ or other
predatory troops 55. This policy may have been an important contributor to the Jacquerie,
which, as is not always fully recognized, was primarily aimed not at noble bodies, but rather
at their fortresses. While Froissart and Jean le Bel almost certainly overstate the amount
of interpersonal violence involved in the revolt – individual nobles killed by the Jacques
number around two or three dozen, and we have no documentary evidence of rape – Jean le
Bel was probably not exaggerating much when he counted 140 fortifications as damaged or
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
even destroyed during the revolt 56.
The Jacques’ attacks on castles were, as Luce and others have argued, also in line with
other provisions of earlier meetings of the Estates that had authorized self-defence for the
resisting of soldiers 57. The remissions for some of the Champenois villages that had assembled
in order to resist soldiers speak of ordonnances authorizing their behavior 58. In the years
following Poitiers, there does seem to have been a general feeling that traditional authorities,
especially the nobility, had abdicated their responsibilities and that communities had to
organize their own defense. Both Jean de Venette and the Norman chronicler famously speak
of the peasants’ disappointment in the nobility, particularly regarding the issue of security 59.
In most of the Jacquerie areas, as we have seen, security was a prospective concern rather
than the fruit of bitter experience, but the anxiety and anger involved may nonetheless have
been quite acute. A remission for an inhabitant of Arcy-Sainte-Restitue, south of Soissons,
for example, recounts the reproaches laid upon the village’s lord, about to ride off and leave
the village unprotected, and the threat that if he would not protect them, then they would
have to protect themselves 60. The village had not yet known any violence, but the lord’s
disregard of the inhabitants’ fears fomented anger against him, nonetheless.

Soldiers, Villagers and Politics 111
The Politics of Fear
If we can connect the Jacquerie more securely with fear of and preventative action against
soldiers than with actual violence, though, the question of timing becomes more acute.
There had been soldiers near (though not in) the Jacquerie heartlands for over a year by
May 1358, and anger at the nobility, particularly for their military failings, had been running
high since at least Poitiers. Here, attention to space and time provides support for Luce’s
other theory about the Jacquerie: that it was directed at the enemies of the Parisian revolt
led by Étienne Marcel and Robert le Coq. While Flammermont dismissed this possibility
out of hand as impossible because cela suppose un complot et par conséquent des hommes
capables de raisonner, Raymond Cazelles argued that Luce was right: Il y a certainement
eu concertation 61. Unlike Flammermont, whose objections rested entirely upon his view of
the peasantry as drunken louts, Luce and Cazelles adduced significant evidence for their
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
theories, including evidence of communication between the Jacques and the Parisians, as
well as their cooperation in some military expeditions, especially around Paris and to its
northeast. Certainly, people in high places blamed the Parisian rebels for the Jacquerie.
Innocent VI spoke of the events of June 1358 as authored by ‘the Parisians and very many
people of other communities of those parts of the realm of France against many nobles of
those parts’ 62. The Dauphin, writing at the end of July about the recent disturbances, charged
Marcel with having stirred up (esmeu) the people against the nobles of the realm 63.
If there was significant coordination with Paris, many things about the timing of the
Jacquerie and its targeting of the nobles make more sense. While the Estates at Compiègne
may not have provided a new impetus for revolt because the clause about readying or
destroying the castles was already a long-standing policy, the political circumstances of the
meeting, at which the nobility dominated and the Parisians’ delegates were turned away,
were indicative of the crisis of relations between the Dauphin and his noble allies on one
side and Paris on the other. The Parisians were aware of their danger. The Hôtel de Ville
had been fortified with artillery from the Louvre, and the Parisians were holding armed
assemblies of their citizens 64. In May Marcel sent 2,000 ��orins south to Avignon to hire
soldiers (brigandi) and to buy arms for the defense of Paris, but the messenger was captured
and the money seized 65. Charles of Navarre was made captain of the city and fêted around
town, though his troops were as much a threat to Parisian safety as those of the Dauphin 66.
As Cazelles pointed out, nothing could have been more strategically useful to the Parisian
rebels in late May than a massive effort to destroy the countryside’s fortresses, crippling the

Dauphin’s ability to cut Paris’s supply lines and preventing the nobility, his main allies, from
joining his army 67.
Particularly north of Paris, where, as we have seen, the military oppression hypothesis
is least demonstrable, the geographic spread of Jacquerie villages looks remarkably
advantageous for Marcel. The concentration of villages in revolt along the Oise and Thérain
rivers could easily be understood as a strategic counter-move to the Dauphin’s domination
of the Marne 68. The con��ict at the river town of St-Leu-d’Esserent, where the Jacquerie
allegedly began, was not an accidental confrontation, but rather, as Pierre Durvin showed,
began when noble troops arrived in the town to take control of the town, which possessed
both an important bridge over the Oise and supplies of stone for the reparation of castles 69.
Another theatre of revolt, Champagne, was, of course, home to the strongest noble support
of the Dauphin 70. It is also notable that two of the fortresses attacked during the Jacquerie,
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
namely Trappes in the west and Étampes in the south, which had been held by Anglo-
Navarrese troops, had passed back into the hands of the crown by May, again suggesting a
strategic effort to counter the Dauphin 71. Marcel himself, of course, denied involvement in
the uprising in letters he wrote to Ypres in July, after the Jacquerie had been put down, but his
denial was couched in narrow terms, and even there he admitted having authority over the
Jacques, claiming he told them not to kill women and children, at least, ‘so long as he or she
was not an enemy of Paris’ (se il n’estoit ennemi de la bonne ville de Paris) 72.
It is possible, in fact, that Marcel and his agents used anxiety about soldiers in order to
convince some people to participate in the Jacquerie. Remissions for supporters of Marcel
state that he had not just usurped the government of Paris and the countryside around it, but
that he had also ‘given people to believe that the Regent was going to allow the cities and the
countryside to be pillaged by soldiers’ 73. Given the pre-existing policies of castle demolition
and communal self-defence discussed above and the concurrent mistrust of the nobility, it
would not be difficult to imagine fear of these troops’ arrival being used to incite and justify
attacking the local castle or manor house, especially since it was at just this moment that the
Dauphin was mustering the troops for his own army, simultaneously increasing the number
67 Cazelles 1978.
68 For the Thérain and the Oise villages acting together see AN, JJ 90, no. 148, fol. 79v-80r. Marcel had
planned to claim the strategic fortress on the Marne at Meaux first but was pre-empted by the
Dauphin (Delachenal, ed. 1910-1920, t. 1, 169). His interest in the rivers, necessary to the supply of Paris
(see Cazelles, 1982, 291-292), is also demonstrated by his reported orders to a Jacques captain to destroy
all the fortresses between deux eaux, in this case, the Seine and Oise (Luce 1895, no. 25).

in the general letter of remission for the Parisians: That Marcel governed not only Paris but also the
nearby plat pays and that he and his followers audit peuple donnoient à entendre que Nous les voullions
destruire et faire pillier par nos Gens-d’armes; que abandonnée avions ladite Ville avec les autres Citez et

of troops in the area and moving the nobility away from the localities they were to protect.
It was the departure of Arcy-Sainte-Restitue’s lord for the Dauphin’s army, for example, that
provoked his villagers’ remonstrations about being left to fend for themselves, and the lord
of Poix blamed his absence for the enemy’s capture of his fortress 74.
More speculatively, the con��ation of soldiers with nobles that we observed in several
cases above from Picardy and Vitry suggests that anxiety about soldiers could be manipulated
to direct anger at the nobility. In addition to the instances already noted, there is a case from
Moret-sur-Loing, west of Montereau on a tributary of the Seine, where, when the villagers
raised the alarm about some approaching foot-soldiers (brigandi) and assembled to decide
on their course of action, one of the villagers took the opportunity to say that ‘the nobles
were false traitors’ (nobiles essent falsi proditores) 75. This apparent non-sequitur would make
more sense as an effort to use the situation for political ends, and apparently it was perceived
Éléments sous droit d’auteur - © Ausonius Éditions mars 2016 : embargo de 2 ans
in such a light. Although these words did not provoke an uprising (commotio), they were
nonetheless understood as seditious by the village’s noble captain, who imprisoned and
fined the offender. The use of military insecurity to provoke aggression against the nobility
need not, of course, have originated solely with the Parisians or to serve their interests, but
in the context of Marcel’s alleged efforts to stoke such fears and the city’s precarious position
vis-à-vis the Dauphin and his noble allies, it is worth considering the possibility.
Conclusion
In an article of this length it is not possible to do more than to sketch the problem and
some possible solutions to it. The geography and timing of the Jacquerie and the language
used to talk about it in the documents strongly suggest that military depredations were
not the immediate cause of the revolt. There were some limited areas of overlap between
places occupied by soldiers – be they English, French, Navarrese, or freebooters – and
places attacked by Jacques, but most of the uprising took place in areas that had heretofore
escaped the experience of pillage. Furthermore, although the distinction between soldier
and noble was not always a clear one and there are some instances of con��ation (whether
by unconscious association or instrumental design), the documents describe the Jacquerie’s
targets almost exclusively as les nobles, rather than gens d’armes, soudoiers, brigans, etc.
Nevertheless the military insecurity caused by the variety of troops to the west and south
of Paris was of significant importance. Even if communities had not themselves experienced
depredation, they were aware that this had happened elsewhere nearby, and that they might
themselves fall victim in the future. These sorts of prospective anxieties were behind efforts
to pull down local castles and to establish communal alliances for self-defense. Such efforts
pre-dated the Jacquerie, but they were also central to the mechanism of the revolt, which
was organized through village assemblies and concentrated on the destruction of castles.
The timing and geographic spread of the revolt make a great deal of sense in connection

with the position espoused by Luce and Cazelles that the movement was closely connected
with the Parisian efforts against the Dauphin and his noble allies. Marcel was accused of
stirring up fears about soldiers’ violence to incite people against the Dauphin, and such
anxiety, in connection with established efforts to prevent troops’ depredations, could well
have been manipulated in the service of the Parisian rebels’ cause.

18 Labelling an activity makes it mean something. The decision to term a group of actions a ‘revolt’
19 or an ‘uprising’ today has profound implications for interpretation, just as calling them ‘rumours’
20 or ‘takehan’ went to the very heart of the perception and reception of contentious political acts
21 600 years ago. The word ‘jacquerie’ is no exception. In English, as in French, the word has
22 meant ‘a peasant revolt, especially a very bloody one’ since the nineteenth century.2 But what
23 the modern term’s medieval eponym, the French Jacquerie of May–June 1358, actually meant
24 to its observers and participants is a curiously underexplored subject. Only one scholarly mono-
25 graph, published in the nineteenth century, has ever been written, and since then fewer than a
26 dozen articles have appeared, the most cogent of them written by Raymond Cazelles over 30
27 years ago.3
28 In the intervening decades, historians’ understanding of later medieval uprisings has changed
29 considerably. While earlier scholars saw events like the Jacquerie as explosions of economic
30 misery, social hatreds, or millenarian mania,4 there has been a general shift to interpreting
31 popular protests as rational and as predominantly political in their objectives and organisation.
32 So for Samuel Cohn, Jr. the impetus for rebellions after the Black Death was political liberty,
33 while John Watts and Patrick Lantschner have shown that much of what we might now view
34 as abnormal and disorderly behaviour against authority can actually be reimagined as continua-
35 tions of normal political processes by people who were not so much opposed to the state as
36 critical of its weaknesses or hungry for a piece of the action.5 This tight focus on the political
37 dimension may ultimately have to be broadened, particularly as the negotiation of power in the
38 Middle Ages encompassed realms of activity and thought habitually excluded from modern pol-
39 itics.6 Still, these reassessments have produced a robust and profound reorientation of scholarly
40 interpretation: rather than assume we know what a revolt is based on our own (or at any rate
41 more modern) experiences of authority and dissent, we must actively interrogate the meaning
42 that contemporaries ascribed to their actions.7
43 That the Jacquerie has not benefited from this kind of methodological and conceptual
44 reassessment partly stems from the vividness of the received picture of it as a bloody, spon-
45 taneous uprising that needs no explanation: i.e. a jacquerie. The problem is also empirical: the
46 disposition of the sources and the complex historical circumstances surrounding the uprising
47 have meant that scholarship has been almost exclusively dedicated to the basic problem of figur-
48 ing out what happened. The sources mainly consist of five chronicle groups, all available in
55
926 03 History H-Book 03.indd 55 13/8/16 06:42:48
J. Firnhaber-Baker
modern editions, and around 200 letters of royal pardon (lettres de rémission) for participants in 1
the revolt, most of which are only available in manuscript at the Archives nationales de France.8 2
The narratives sources offer an aggregated overview of the event, but they do not always accord 3
with one another or even with themselves, as I will discuss below. The remissions, on the other 4
hand, frequently contain a narrative portion detailing the recipient’s crimes, which gives a 5
granular picture of the revolt but which also requires extensive geographical and prosopographi- 6
cal work in order to make sense of the narrative. Still, these difficulties would hardly present an 7
intractable problem, were it not for the fact that the Jacquerie came at a particularly confused 8
moment in French history. 9
Two years earlier, the English had defeated the French army at the Battle of Poitiers and 10
captured King John II.9 As a result, a power vacuum arose in the capital, which the young 11
Dauphin Charles mishandled. The government of the realm fell to the assemblies of the three 12
estates (the clergy, the nobles, and the burghers) known as the Estates General (États généraux), 13
which were dominated by the Parisian merchant, Étienne Marcel, and the bishop of Laon, 14
Robert le Coq. King Charles II of Navarre’s presence in and around Paris further complicated 15
the situation. Possessing a large army, a reasonable claim to the French throne, and a sizeable 16
grudge against King John, he was a valuable ally to the Parisian rebels but a dangerous entity in 17
his own right. On 22 February 1358, Marcel led a mob to the Dauphin’s private chambers, 18
where they killed two of the Dauphin’s marshals, and by the late spring of 1358, the Prince, 19
now allied with the Northern French nobility, had mobilised to retake Paris by force. He gar- 20
risoned fortresses at Meaux on the Marne River and Montereau on the Seine, which cut off 21
Paris’ supply lines, and he began recruiting an army. It was at this point that the Jacquerie broke 22
out. Scholarship on it has thus always been divided between two camps: one that sees it as the 23
result of collusion between the Jacques and the Parisians and one that holds that the Jacques 24
acted independently. 25
These empirical problems have hampered more methodologically sophisticated investiga- 26
tions, but, ironically, they are essentially insoluble without the kind of methodological reassess- 27
ment of the meaning of revolt that recent historiography offers. Past interpretations of the 28
Jacquerie have all started from the assumption that the revolt had a meaning that we can exca- 29
vate from the documentation, assume from the social position of the perpetrators, and/or infer 30
from the historical context. But as social scientists and our own experiences tell us, the motiva- 31
tions and perceptions of those involved in any large-scale collective action are multiple and 32
mutable.10 The Jacquerie was an event experienced and shaped by tens of thousands of people; 33
its interpretation necessarily differed from person to person and from community to com- 34
munity. Nor were these interpretations fixed, but rather developed and changed during the 35
rebellion and through the acts of repression and memory and forgetting that followed.11 But this 36
does not mean that those meanings were limitless or that they are impossible to investigate. The 37
language of the sources, the organisation and objectives of the rebellion, and the violence itself 38
all offer clues to the significance that contemporaries ascribed to the revolt. These windows on 39
to the Jacquerie roughly correspond to the perspectives of the social classes in play: the nobles, 40
the townspeople, and the Jacques themselves. None of them necessarily tells us the ‘truth’ about 41
the Jacquerie. Rather they illustrate the multiplicity of meanings that the Jacquerie could have 42
had and the dangers of sublimating those meanings to a single explanation. 43
44
45
Language and narrative: after the fact
46
The search for meaning ought naturally to begin with language, but it is important to recognise 47
that in a sense language is where the Jacquerie itself ended, for we only get sources after the 48
56
926 03 History H-Book 03.indd 56 13/8/16 06:42:48
The eponymous Jacquerie
1 revolt had been put down. We have no documents from the Jacquerie itself: no letters of the
2 type Steven Justice analysed for the English Rising of 1381, no songs or poems of the kind we
3 have for the Hussites.12 In fact, almost everything dates from after the Dauphin retook Paris in
4 August 1358, that is to say, almost a month after the end of the Jacquerie, and many sources,
5 particularly the narrative ones, were written years or decades later than that. Only the chronicle
6 of Jean le Bel may be contemporaneous, but it is still the product of some distance and reflec-
7 tion. Produced after the fact, the documents are nearly unanimous in describing the Jacquerie
8 in emotional and social terms as a disorganised terror unleashed against the nobility by country
9 dwellers.
10 Let us begin with the remissions, these letters of pardon issued by the crown for participants in
11 the revolt and its suppression. The words chosen to label the Jacquerie suggest that the royal chan-
12 cery perceived and presented the Jacquerie as an event whose import was more affective than
13 political. The word Jacquerie turns up very early, noting the contents of a letter of remission (Chartre
14 de Jacquerie) in a royal register from 1360, but the example is unique to my knowledge.13 Jacques,
15 used for the participants, comes up somewhat more frequently and earlier, in a remission from
16 October 1358 (pluseurs des Jaques de la dite ville).14 In neither of these cases is the word defined,
17 though a remission of December 1358 says that the Jacques were people from the countryside (les
18 gens du plat pais nommez Jaques).15 Words with political connotations, like rebellion and esmeute, do
19 appear occasionally (in 7 and 4 per cent of documents, respectively), but in the overwhelming
20 preponderance of cases, the chancery preferred either commotions or effroiz. Thirty-seven per cent
21 of the remissions use the word commotions, 53 per cent use effroiz, and 13 per cent employ both
22 words, often together with other terms like monopoles, comspirations, or assemblees.16
23 These words were both relatively rare in normal chancery usage, and both had strong emo-
24 tional valences. Commotions means violent physical shocks, and its Latin root commotio was used
25 not only for uprisings but also for earthquakes.17 The word effroiz means fears or terrors. In
26 Middle French, the word had connotations of noise and disarray, as well as military associations
27 similar to its English relative ‘affray’.18 Le Robert dictionnaire historique identifies its Latin root as
28 exfridare, to exit from peace, though DuCange thought it came from efferare, meaning to make
29 savage or brutal.19 The apolitical, social, and emotional nature of the Jacquerie that is apparent
30 from word-choice is also emphasised in the formula that is employed in about a third of the
31 remissions: The first part of this formula describes the supplicant’s crime as that of ‘having been
32 with others of the neighbouring countryside in the terrors which were recently committed by
33 the people of the countryside against the nobles of the realm’ (aient este avec plusieurs autres du pais
34 danviron aus effroiz qui derrainement & nagaires ont este faiz par les diz genz du dit plait pais contre les
35 nobles du dit Royaume).20
36 The affective language used for the Jacquerie stands in contrast to that used for the Parisian
37 rebellion led by Marcel and le Coq against the Dauphin. Letters of remission issued to their
38 partisans portray their activities exclusively in political terms as treason, lèse-majesté, and an attack
39 on the crown. The formula often employed in remissions for Parisian partisans states that the
40 supplicant was implicated in the ‘great treasons, rebellions, conspiracies, armies, cavalcades,
41 attacks and disobediences . . . by committing public force and the crime of lèse-majesté against
42 our lord [King John II], us [the Dauphin], and the crown of France’ (grans traisons, rebellions,
43 conspirations, armees, chevauchees, invasions & dessobeissances . . . en commettant force publique & crime
44 de leze mageste envers & contre nostre dit seigneur nous & la couronne de France).21 Those remissions do
45 sometimes use emotional language, but they do so in order to describe the interior political state
46 of the supplicant, who had always been ‘a good Frenchman’ (bon & loyal francois) in his ‘heart
47 and mind’ (en cuer et en pensee) despite his misdeeds, rather than to evoke the project’s madness
48 or its victims’ terror.22

by remissions for the Jacques. The chronicles are broadly in agreement: the Jacques acted cruelly 2
and irrationally against their target, the nobles, who were terrified. The most famous narrative 3
accounts, those of the chivalric chroniclers Froissart and his source, Jean le Bel, describe the 4
nobles fleeing the Jacques in terror, dressed only in their shirts and carrying their children piggy 5
back, the women in Froissart’s tale being particularly overcome with fear (moult . . . effraées).23 The 6
emotional language is amplified by their reportage that the Jacques had no prior organisation or 7
leadership (they were san chief ) and their account of the Jacques’ deeds, which in their telling 8
include killing children, gang-raping women, and roasting a knight on a spit. The English Anoni- 9
malle chronicler took this theme yet farther, accusing ‘Jak Bonehomme’ of revelling in the blood 10
of foetuses torn from their mothers’ wombs and so forth.24 But even less overwrought writers, 11
such as the stolid Norman chronicler, emphasised that the Jacques acted cruelly and without 12
mercy (moult cruelement, sanz pitié).25 The Picard peasant turned monk usually identified as Jean de 13
Venette, often considered the Jacques’ most sympathetic reporter, nevertheless characterised the 14
rising as a monstrous business, an unheard of thing, and vile and evil doing (negotium monstruosum, 15
casus inauditus, opera vilia et nefanda).26 The chroniclers attribute the rising to the Jacques’ wicked- 16
ness or insanity: Jean le Bel and Froissart blamed insanity (rage or forsenerie), while the royal 17
chronicler attributed the Jacquerie to demonic inspiration (mauvais esprit).27 Again, these are inte- 18
rior, affective explanations, rather than political or circumstantial ones. 19
It is an obvious point but an important one that the chronicles’ language is at least as indicative 20
of their contexts of composition and the perceptions of literate elites as it is of the realities of the 21
Jacquerie. Marie-Thérèse de Medeiros argued that Jean le Bel and especially Froissart’s stories about 22
the Jacques were strongly influenced by their chivalric ethos, not to mention their aesthetic objec- 23
tives.28 Less widely noted but no less critical to interpretation is the way that Jean de Venette fitted 24
the Jacquerie’s inversion of social order into an overarching narrative of miracles, wonders, and 25
portents; the entry for 1358, for example, begins ‘new marvels [mirabilia] were piled atop old’.29 Nor 26
are the archival sources necessarily any more transparent.30 The lawyers and the chancery clerks who 27
produced the remissions did not have the kind of elaborately considered narrative programmes of 28
the chroniclers, but they did have their own compositional conventions. And as Natalie Davis has 29
shown, those who came before the crown to beg for remission were just as interested as Froissart in 30
story-telling, perhaps all the more so when their lives and goods hung in the balance.31 31
In both the chronicles and the remissions, though, there are places where the stories break 32
down. If we look at that handful of royal documents related to the Jacquerie that were issued 33
before the Dauphin retook Paris at the beginning of August and started granting remissions in 34
large number, we do not seem to be dealing with quite the same event as the noisy Terror 35
against the nobles (effroiz contre les nobles) familiar from later on. There are two remissions issued 36
in July, both for noblemen involved in suppressing the Jacques. One, issued for the lords of 37
Grancy and Saint-Dizier alleges that the ‘communes’ of the Perthois and Champagne had con- 38
spired to kill them, as well as other noblemen and their wives and children, but non-nobles, as 39
well as nobles are said to have got together to put down this conspiracy; the letter mentions the 40
non-nobles’ participation several times.32 The second remission, for two squires in Picardy, 41
presents the crown as a target of the revolt alongside the nobles, characterising the people of the 42
countryside who had attacked nobles as ‘enemies and rebels of our lord [king] and us’ (ennemis 43
et rebelles de nostre dit seigneur et de nous).33 In addition to these remissions, in June and July the 44
Dauphin issued two donations of Jacques’ property to noblemen serving in his army and granted 45
a market franchise to a knight who had been victimised by the revolt. These grants also identify 46
the crown as a target of the Jacques, and they speak of the uprising in terms similar to those used 47
for the Parisian rebellion, as an attack on and even a war (guerra) against the royal majesty.34 48

The eponymous Jacquerie
1 But once the Dauphin retook Paris, the language changed. Possibly this happened because
2 better information became available, or possibly the Dauphin and/or the chancery made a deci-
3 sion to portray the Jacquerie’s relation to the crown and the nobles differently.35 Once victori-
4 ous, the Dauphin issued a general remission for all the crimes committed in Paris, during the
5 Jacquerie, and during the wave of noble vengeance that had followed.36 In individual remissions
6 issued from August onward the crown is represented as an arbiter between the nobles and the
7 Jacques, attempting to reconcile them after their discord. The formula which follows the
8 description of the Jacquerie as effroiz contre les nobles states that the nobles now hated the country
9 dwellers and wanted to hurt them, and that the Dauphin, having returned to Paris and remitted
10 the crimes on both sides, requires them to forgive one another (avons ordenne que touz les diz
11 nobles remettent & pardonnent aus diz genz du plait pais, et aussi les dites genz aus diz nobles).37 The
12 crown thus removed itself from the conflict, which was thenceforth portrayed as a binary con-
13 frontation between the country dwellers (les gens du plat pays) and the nobles. The documents
14 that precede that effort, though, suggest that there was a time when other narratives were pos-
15 sible, when the crown might have understood the Jacquerie as something other than a terror
16 against the nobility and might have seen itself as equally targeted.
17 We can also see change in meaning over time in the chronicles of Jean le Bel and Froissart.
18 As is well known, Froissart incorporated much of Jean le Bel’s chronicle into his work, but there
19 is a significant gap between their compositions. Jean le Bel was writing more or less contempo-
20 raneously with events in 1358, while Froissart probably produced this part of his chronicle at
21 least 30 years later.38 Their accounts of the Jacquerie are very similar, in some places word for
22 word, but there are places where they differ. Both writers portrayed the Jacques as a leaderless,
23 frenetic mob, but towards the end of his account, Jean le Bel offers several attempts at explana-
24 tion that are at odds with this picture, explanations which Froissart decided to omit. Having
25 narrated the Jacques’ atrocities at some length, Jean le Bel says ‘It is hard to see how these horrid
26 people in far-flung places came to act together at the same time’ (On se doibt bien esmerveillier dont
27 ce courage vint à ces meschans gens en divers pays loing l’ung de l’aultre et tout en ung mesme temps).39 He
28 speculates that perhaps it was the fault of tax collectors who were frustrated that peace with
29 England meant they were out of a job, though he also says that people suspected that Étienne
30 Marcel, Robert le Coq, and Charles of Navarre were behind it. He then goes on to talk about
31 the revenge the nobles took against the Jacques, but at the very end of the chapter he returns to
32 the problem of organisation in a passage whose multiple changes of direction makes it difficult
33 to translate:
34
35 One can hardly believe that such people would have dared to undertake such devilry
36 without the help of some others, especially in the kingdom of France. In the same
37 manner [as nobles discussed in the previous passage] the Lord of Coucy summoned
38 people from wherever he could get them; thus he attacked his neighbours and destroyed
39 them and hanged and killed them in such a horrible way as it would be terrible to
40 remember; and these bad people had a captain called Jacques Bonhomme, who was a
41 complete hick [parfait villain] and who tried to claim that the bishop of Laon had urged
42 him to do this, for he was one of his men. The Lord of Coucy also did not like that
43 bishop.40
44
45 Gerald Nachtwey has argued that Froissart’s omission of these passages stems from his efforts to
46 explain the Jacquerie as a symptom of a systematic social malaise, a challenge to chivalry in
47 which the aristocrats eventually triumph.41 This seems self-evidently true, but his explanation
48 for Jean le Bel’s original inclusion of these passages is less convincing. Nachtwey argues that
59
926 03 History H-Book 03.indd 59 13/8/16 06:42:48
J. Firnhaber-Baker
being closer to the terrifying events of the Jacquerie, Jean le Bel needed someone to blame and 1
structured his narrative to point the finger at particular individuals, but the passages do not read 2
as if they are part of a considered narrative framework. Rather, they appear more like after- 3
thoughts or interruptions where the chronicler realised he had something he did not fully 4
understand, but being committed to the truth he had to include anyway.42 The first passage is 5
sandwiched between his accounts of the Jacquerie’s outbreak and the nobles’ revenge, and the 6
second is simply tacked on to the end of the chapter and moves back and forth in a few lines 7
between different topics, first talking about organisation, then describing the response of the 8
Lord of Coucy, then suddenly mentioning this captain Jacques Bonhomme who was connected 9
to Robert le Coq. There is a half-realised effort to link this in narratively by saying that there 10
was also no love lost between Robert le Coq and Coucy, but the transition is very rough. The 11
confusion of this passage suggests that this is another moment in the creation of a narrative, 12
similar to that of the early remissions and grants, in which the story is not yet fixed.43 Despite 13
the affecting depiction of noble terror and rural insanity in Jean le Bel and the uses that Froissart 14
will put that to in his far more influential work, the earlier chronicle – again, this is the earliest 15
chronicle – suggests that the Jacquerie might once have meant something other than, or perhaps 16
something as well as, an emotional and social commotion. 17

Organisation and objectives
20
Many historians have, of course, agreed with Jean le Bel that ‘it’s hard to believe that such 21
people would dare undertake such actions without help’. The geographic extent of Jacquerie 22
alone makes it clear that the Jacques could not have risen as a spontaneous mob, but rather must 23
have made prior arrangements. Over 150 localities, most of them villages, were implicated in 24
the uprising (Map 3.1). It is possible that they did not all rise quite simultaneously, but even if 25
not, the timing was very close. The first incidents took place on 28 May, and by Corpus Christi 26
on 31 May, the whole countryside north and east of Paris was up in arms.44 Siméon Luce noted 27
many incidents of communication and coordination among the Jacques and between the Jacques 28
and Paris in his book, and, more recently, Samuel Cohn, Jr. has shown that there is copious 29
evidence of planning and long-distance coordination in many large-scale revolts, including the 30
Jacquerie as well as the Ciompi, and the English Rising.45 Indeed, if we set aside, at least tem- 31
porarily, the idea of the Jacquerie as a shapeless social terror, it is easily possible to build up a 32
picture of it that bears less resemblance to a jacquerie than to a planned military venture with 33
political aims similar to acts of war under state authority. 34
Some observers clearly thought the thing had a distinctly military air. One remission speaks 35
of the Jacques as a host or battalion (ost & bataille), and there are at least two references to the 36
Jacquerie as war (guerra).46 The redaction of Froissart’s chronicle now housed at Chicago’s New- 37
berry Library also speaks of the Jacques as a hoost and of their logeis, or military encampments.47 38
The Norman chronicler, who was probably a military man himself, reported that they arranged 39
themselves ‘in good military order’ (en belle ordonnance) before combat with the nobles near 40
Poix.48 The Chronique des quatres premiers Valois gives this more flesh, noting that before their 41
battle with the king of Navarre outside Clermont the Jacques formed two battalions of 2,000 42
men on foot, with the archers in front and the baggage forming a barrier before them, and 43
another battalion of 600 men on horse. He goes on to say that the Jacques faced off against the 44
nobles ‘in formation, blowing horns and trumpets and loudly crying Mont Joye and bearing many 45
flags painted with the fleur-de-lys’.49 The detail about the flag is important, for raised banners 46
were a legal indication of warfare in the fourteenth century, and other sources corroborate the 47
presence of flags (vexilla or bannières) among the Jacques.50 48

Organisationally, the Jacques also look more like an army than a mob.51 Details gleaned from 1
remissions show that they had a hierarchical command structure governed by captains.52 At the 2
apex of command was the ‘general captain of the countryside’ or ‘great captain of the non- 3
nobles’ mentioned in several remissions, and identified in two of them as the famous Guillaume 4
Calle.53 Calle is also named as the leader of the Jacquerie in several chronicles, though some 5
remissions speak of him in more limited terms as the leader of the Jacques in the Beauvaisis.54 6
Several remissions mention the captains (plural) of the countryside who forced the recipients’ 7
participation, and one remission speaks of these captains as being ‘sovereign’ over the lesser 8
captains in command of villages.55 The great captain had at least one lieutenant, mentioned 9
without a name in a remission from 1363.56 This lieutenant may be identified with Germain de 10
Révillion, who commanded the Jacques whilst Calle was besieging Ermenonville, or with 11
Archat of Bulles, styled in one remission as the ‘then [lors] captain of the people of the country- 12
side of Beauvaisis’, who may have served in Calle’s absence or after his execution on 10 June.57 13
The Chronique des . . . Valois also mentions a certain hospitaller as Calle’s co-commander, but he 14
has never been identified.58 15
Below this top layer of command, there were individual captains at the village level. We 16
know of nearly 20 individuals serving in this capacity. At least some of them had sub-officers 17
and coherent companies under their orders. The captain of Jaux, for example, had a lieutenant 18
and at least one dizanier (probably in charge of a contingent of ten men), while the captain of 19
Bessencourt had a counsellor, and the captain of Chambly commanded a company of eight men 20
on horse and 16 on foot.59 There were also captains in charge of several villages or areas, and at 21
least one who commanded a company entrusted with a specific, long-distance mission.60 This 22
suggests that there was a middle layer between the great captain or sovereign captains and those 23
in charge of individual communities. And while the evidence for the highest level of command 24
is restricted to the Beauvaisis, the evidence for the middle and communal layers comes from 25
almost every area implicated in the uprising.61 26
Thinking about the Jacquerie as a military undertaking, begs the question in the service of 27
what or whom? This returns us to the empirical problem that has bedevilled the scholarship: 28
Why did the Jacquerie occur and what was the relationship between it and the rebellion in 29
Paris? The preponderance of evidence is on the side of collaboration between the Parisians and 30
the Jacques. In separate instances, both Pope Innocent IV and the Dauphin himself claimed that 31
the Parisians had orchestrated the Jacquerie.62 Many remissions also indicate collusion: some 32
issued to Parisians state that Marcel had usurped the government not just of Paris, but of the 33
countryside around it, and that he ‘had given people to believe that the Dauphin intended to 34
allow the cities and the countryside to be pillaged by soldiers’ (audit peuple donnoient entendre que 35
nous les voulions destruire & faire pillier par noz genz d’armes).63 Some for individual Jacques speak 36
of orders from Marcel to destroy all fortresses and houses prejudicial to the town of Paris and the 37
countryside and to assemble together in arms and follow the commands of his commissioners.64 38
There is evidence of combined Parisian and Jacques forces in attacks at Ermenonville, Gonesse, 39
and Meaux, and possibly also at Montépilloy and Palaiseau.65 Marcel himself, of course, denied 40
that the uprising had begun with his knowledge and consent in letters he wrote in July, after the 41
Jacquerie had ended, but his denial was couched in narrow terms, and even there he admitted 42
having authority over the Jacques, claiming he told them not to kill women and children, at 43
least, so long as they were not enemies of Paris.66 44
There is substantial support for Raymond Cazelles’ speculation that the Jacquerie was not 45
just used by the Parisians after it had broken out ‘spontaneously’ but had been planned in 46
advance by Marcel and le Coq in cooperation with the revolts’ leaders as a response to the Dau- 47
phin’s military efforts against Paris.67 We could certainly read the Jacques’ attack on les nobles not 48
62
926 03 History H-Book 03.indd 62 13/8/16 06:42:49
The eponymous Jacquerie
1 as (or not just as) an attack on a social group but rather on a party allied with the Dauphin against
2 the reform party that orchestrated the revolt.68 In the spring of 1358, les nobles, that is, the second
3 estate, had withdrawn from the Estates General, where Marcel held sway, and opposed his
4 reform programme. It was les nobles, particularly those of Champagne, who had been mostly
5 deeply offended by the murder of the marshals and who used that incident to turn the Dauphin
6 against the Parisians. According to the royal chronicler, the Dauphin had initially accepted Mar-
7 cel’s explanation for the murders, pardoned the murderers, and expressed his wish to be good
8 friends with the Parisians.69 The break only came when the Dauphin went to Champagne in
9 April and was taken aside by some noblemen who questioned him about his acquiescence. He
10 admitted some doubts about the men’s guilt and promised to stand with the champenois nobil-
11 ity.70 On the morrow of this encounter, he headed to the fortress of Montereau and then sent a
12 garrison to Meaux, blockading the river traffic to Paris on the Seine and the Marne, and he
13 began to recruit his army – mostly made up of the regional nobility – to take back the capital.71
14 An attack on the nobility was thus an attack on the Dauphin’s allies.
15 The Parisian’s concerns are clearly reflected in the first identifiable episode in the Jacquerie,
16 the murder of a nobleman named Raoul de Clermont-Nesle and eight others at the village of
17 Saint-Leu d’Esserent on 28 May, an event attested in several chronicles and two letters of remis-
18 sion.72 The village, as Cazelles observed, was vital to the Dauphin’s blockade of Paris because it
19 had an important bridge over the Oise River, the only river still open after his occupation of
20 Meaux and Montereau.73 Saint-Leu was also a quarry town that produced high quality building
21 stone, again key to royal efforts to dominate the countryside by re-fortifying the castles.74 The
22 control of rivers and building seems to have been a central objective for the Jacquerie as a whole,
23 especially in the Beauvaisis. A line of villages implicated in the revolt runs along the Oise and its
24 tributary the Thérain (see Map 3.1), while the other three villages identified by some chronicles
25 as cradles of the Jacquerie were also quarry towns.75 These foci dovetail neatly with events in
26 Paris, where the day after the violence at Saint-Leu, the townsmen executed the crown’s master
27 carpenter and its master of the bridge, who was responsible for traffic on the Seine.76
28 The events in Saint-Leu were freighted with political as well as military significance for the
29 conflict between Paris and the Dauphin and his noble allies. The murder of Raoul de Clermont-
30 Nesle and his company was not an irrelevant coincidence, but rather a calculated shot across the
31 Dauphin’s bow. Raoul was the nephew of Robert de Clermont, who was one of the marshals
32 murdered by Marcel’s mob in the Dauphin’s presence in February,77 the act that irrevocably
33 alienated the nobility and eventually the Dauphin from the Parisians and thus set in motion the
34 military confrontation now coming to a head. The symbolic impact of Raoul’s death at the
35 hands of commoners could hardly have been greater, perhaps all the more so as he was the great-
36 nephew and namesake of King Philip the Fair’s constable Raoul de Clermont, who had also
37 been killed by commoners at that great defeat of the French nobility, the Battle of Courtrai in
38 1302.78 The remission that describes these events in most detail notes Raoul’s relationship to the
39 murdered marshal, as well as the family’s long history of service to the French crown.79 Raoul’s
40 death was no accident. Everybody knew what it meant.

Violence and the social order
43
44 Or did they? For if we can deduce clerics’ and aristocrats’ interpretations of the Jacquerie from
45 their words and those of the Parisians from its aims and organisation, understanding how the gens
46 du plat pays themselves thought about things is much more difficult. I have elsewhere concurred
47 with Luce and Cazelles that many of them may have understood the Jacquerie as a defensive
48 measure against predatory soldiers, and that this move might even have been legally defensible
63
926 03 History H-Book 03.indd 63 13/8/16 06:42:49
J. Firnhaber-Baker
given promulgations issued by the Estates General in the king’s name that authorised communal 1
violence against such depredations.80 There are indications that the Jacquerie’s leadership may 2
have fostered this impression that the violence was licensed. One of the captains who had been 3
a royal sergeant, for example, was allegedly forced to give commands as if they were from the 4
king or the Dauphin (de par nostre dit seigneur & de par nous).81 But not all Jacques necessarily 5
participated in this understanding (however valid it might have been). If we look at the Jacques’ 6
violence itself, which Bettina Bommersbach has characterised as their ‘means of communica- 7
tion’, there is much about their actions that cannot be explained solely by military or narrowly 8
political circumstances, but which reflects and was perhaps even productive of a social and emo- 9
tional aspect of the uprising for the participants themselves.82 10
The Jacques’ reputation for violence is fearsome, but their actual deeds seem to have been 11
far less extreme than the term jacquerie now suggests or as Jean le Bel and Froissart claimed. 12
There was certainly some interpersonal violence. About half of the remissions say that noble- 13
men were killed, and seven also report interpersonal violence against noblewomen or 14
noble children.83 In addition to Raoul de Clermont-Nesle, we know of at least 12 named 15
noblemen and one woman whom the Jacques killed, and there are also some unnamed 16
victims.84 Still, we are very far here from a mindless massacre of gentlemen, let alone of their 17
dependants. There is even less documentary evidence of sexual violence. Several chronicles 18
report rape, but there is only a single remission that records an accusation of what was prob- 19
ably rape (raptus).85 None of the few specific noblewomen reportedly victimised by the 20
Jacques was raped, and the only archival document I know of that mentions both the Jac- 21
querie and the rape of a specific noblewomen presents the rape and the revolt as separate, 22
unrelated incidents.86 Even in Froissart’s chronicle, the non-specificity of the sexual violence 23
is striking. He says that women were raped, but when we get to specific women, it is the fear 24
of rape that we hear about, rather than its actuality.87 25
This is not to say that dastardly deeds did not take place – Luce found some corroborating 26
evidence for the famous story in Jean le Bel that the Jacques roasted a nobleman, for instance88 27
– but the bulk of the Jacques’ violence was not directed against nobles’ bodies. Rather, it was 28
focused on the destruction of their fortresses, homes, and goods. Jean le Bel/Froissart reported 29
that the Jacques destroyed more than 140 houses and castles. From other sources, we can identify 30
over 30 castles, fortresses, or towers and 20 houses attacked or destroyed, as well as more than 31
two dozen other places in which the type of building is not specified. These attacks were 32
intended to destroy the buildings; the verb most often used is abattre, to tear down, closely fol- 33
lowed by ardoir, to burn. The Jacques were also keen to destroy what was in these buildings. 34
Dissiper leurs biens (to destroy their goods) is how the remissions’ formula puts it. Again mostly 35
they did this by burning. There was also a fair amount of looting. Lawsuits over the property 36
lost or damaged in this way continued well into the 1370s.89 37
What did this violence mean? Attacking castles obviously had a strategic aim consonant with 38
the Parisians’ needs. The Dauphin’s control of the rivers was complemented by his control of 39
the castles, which were in the hands of his allies, les nobles, and the demolition of their domiciles 40
served as a diversionary tactic, pulling them away from the prince’s planned assault on Paris. 41
There may also have been a judicial element, as the destruction of noxious individuals’ houses 42
or castles was a common punishment.90 But the Jacques’ attacks on castles can also be read in 43
social rather than or even as well as military (or judicial) terms, for the Jacques seem to have had 44
an antipathy towards castles per se. With the possible exception of the great castle at Creil, there 45
is not a single example of a fortress that the Jacques occupied rather than attacked.91 This may 46
be because fourteenth-century castles’ military uses were inherently odious to the gens du plat 47
pays. Castles’ offensive use as strong points from which to raid the surrounding countryside was 48

The eponymous Jacquerie
1 obviously upsetting to the countryfolk: it was they who were raped and ransomed, their livestock
2 and grain that was taken, and their houses and fields that were burned.92 But castles’ defensive
3 use as refuges was – perhaps surprisingly – not that much more popular, primarily because it was
4 expensive and inconvenient.93 In many ways, the local fortress was just another place in which
5 countryfolk paid seigneurial exactions.
6 Of course, the social meaning of castles, fortresses, and manor houses went beyond their
7 military value and their fiscal burden. Many of these places, at least according to their owners,
8 were beautiful (pulchra) and must have been quite different from most of the dwellings of their
9 common-born neighbours (Figures 3.1 and 3.2).94 The nobles’ things were also nicer.95 We get

some sense of this aesthetic difference from a remark in Jean de Venette’s chronicle that is 30
usually translated to mean that the Jacques and their wives got dressed up in the nobles’ clothing 31
and paraded around in their finery.96 This is not to say, of course, that there was always an insu- 32
perable social and economic distance between the nobles and the non-nobles: nobles and non- 33
nobles intermarried, their children played together, and there were non-nobles who held 34
fortresses and fiefs.97 But the distinction does seem to have been important to the Jacques: a 35
non-noble whose wife was noble was attacked by the Jacques for that reason; a youths’ rough 36
game turned actually violent when a commoner teased his noble playmate about the Jacques’ 37
exploits; and a commoner’s châteaux et heritages did not keep him from joining those who ‘made 38
themselves adversaries of the realm’s nobles’.98 39
The link between this social meaning of nobility and its political/fiscal and in turn military 40
implications is inextricable. The reason nobles lived in fortresses was because they could phys- 41
ically coerce the peasants into handing over their surplus (whilst they themselves remained often 42
exempt from royal taxation), and the reason they could do that was because they were a warrior 43
aristocracy who lived in fortresses. This is an oversimplification of the complex and changing 44
situation of the late medieval French nobility,99 but this nexus of economic, political, and 45
military privilege inherent in noblesse seems nonetheless to have been at the heart of the Jac- 46
querie for its rank and file participants. Their attack on the nobles was not about the weight of 47
local lordship per se, but about the entire system of social difference based on violence (real or 48

The eponymous Jacquerie
1 threatened) against commoners’ bodies and their property. The Jacques did not primarily attack
2 their own lords. The sources describe their targets in the aggregate as ‘the nobles’ (les nobles), not
3 ‘the lords’ (les seigneurs), and it is notable that ecclesiastical lordships were left untouched.100 The
4 importance of nobility to ordinary Jacques, whatever their commanders’ orders, can be seen in
5 the inhabitants of Gonesse’s objection to the attack on Pierre d’Orgemont’s property that ‘Pierre
6 was not a noble’ (Petrum non esse nobilem) and the mercy shown by other Jacques to Robert de
7 Lorris when he renounced his nobility (regnia gentillesse).101
8 There are cases in which we know that Jacques attacked targets in their own villages, includ-
9 ing their own lords.102 But many Jacques travelled, first assembling elsewhere and then attacking
10 in combination with other villages, sometimes in concert with local inhabitants, as happened in
11 Saint-Leu. Under 15 per cent of the localities from which Jacques originated also experienced
12 attacks from them, and GIS analysis shows that the geographic centre of Jacquerie hometowns
13 was over 26 km away from the geographic centre of attacks.103 Far from taking vengeance
14 against their subjects, a number of lords intervened on their behalf after the Jacquerie, petition-
15 ing the king for their remission and complaining about their victimisation by other nobles or
16 royal commissioners.104 Nor were local inhabitants always entirely enthusiastic about the revolt.
17 The villagers of Épieds, for example, claimed that they only participated in the attack on a local
18 knight’s manors because ‘a great number of countrydwellers came to the village and forced them
19 to do it . . . which displeased them’ (grant nombre des genz du plat pays vinrent en la dite ville & par
20 contrainte furent avec eulz a faire les diz malefices . . . dont il leur desplaisoit forment).105 Obviously their
21 testimony was self-serving, but it does give a sense, confirmed by other indications, that local,
22 individual relationships were not always as key to mobilising violence as opposition to more
23 generalised social relations.
24 But was this attack on the social system always the or at least a fundamental meaning of the
25 uprising for its participants? Most historians of the Jacques are certain that it was, that whatever
26 the spark that ignited the Jacquerie, it landed upon the driest of tinder. For some, that hatred
27 was the product of centuries, finally bursting forth at this moment.106 Others point to more
28 recent complaints about the nobility’s failure to protect first the king at Poitiers and then the
29 country dwellers afterward.107 We can find elements of this sort of moral economy argument in
30 most of the chronicles, even in Froissart/le Bel where the Jacquerie begins with the Jacques’
31 accusation that the nobles had shamed and pillaged the realm (les nobles . . . honissoient et gastoient
32 le royaume), and there are echoes of it in some remissions.108 Nor is this moral economy argu-
33 ment necessarily incompatible with the strategic military explanation: as the Norman chronicler
34 explains, the Dauphin had allowed the nobles to pillage their own people so that they could
35 victual the castles enabling them to blockade Paris, which led the peasants to say that ‘the
36 knights who ought to have protected them had colluded to take all their goods’. He adds, ‘For
37 this reason, they revolted’ (Pour ce fait s’esmeurent).109
38 It is also possible, though, that the social aspect of the revolt might have developed or
39 become sharpened during the course of the rebellion. The non-nobles’ experience of com-
40 mitting violence against nobles, the very act of challenging the military aspect of their domi-
41 nance, may have led them inevitably to question the social structure. In a parallel case from
42 the twelfth-century Auvergne, John Arnold has argued that the movement of the capuciati,
43 which began as a peace-keeping association against mercenaries, underwent a transformation,
44 becoming an anti-noble movement not only for their terrified elite observers but possibly
45 also for the capuciati themselves who ‘having usurped the lords’ ability to command the battle-
46 field’ may also have found ‘the necessary confidence to express a radical challenge to the
47 existing hierarchy’.110 The brevity of the Jacquerie in comparison to that movement, which
48 lasted several years, and the post facto nature of the Jacquerie documentation, makes it harder

to isolate that development here, but Jean de Venette’s chronicle does offer us a glimmer of 1
this hypothetical process. Explaining the origin of the name Jacques Bonhomme, he says it 2
began as a derisive term that the nobles gave to the countryfolk (the rustici), but he says ‘in 3
the year that the countryfolk “rustically” carried their arms into battle they took up this name 4
for themselves [nomen . . . acceperunt] and abandoned the name rustici’.111 Jean de Venette’s 5
story relates to peasants who went to war in 1356 against the English, not to the Jacquerie 6
itself, but it does intimate that the act of taking up arms transformed the rustics and enabled 7
them to appropriate their nickname, transforming it from one of ridicule to one of threat. 8
The Jacquerie may not have been originally planned as a social rebellion, but when the coun- 9
tryfolk marched across the countryside in their battalions, under their banners, burning down 10
the infrastructure of noble domination, they may have started to think about themselves and 11
their relationship to the nobility differently from how they had before. 12

Conclusion
15
What the Jacquerie meant to its participants and observers was varied and fluid. Recovering 16
those meanings from the sources requires thinking about how and why people made their inter- 17
pretative moves, as well as how their interpretations might change over time. As John Arnold 18
observes, ‘The successful motivation of large groups to collective action both requires and 19
inspires acts of imagination; to ask which comes first is perhaps to miss the messy, partly aleatory, 20
nature of such events.’112 There were many acts of imagination that made the Jacquerie mean 21
something – or some things – for its contemporaries. Penetrating that thicket of beliefs, hopes, 22
intentions, fears, and lies presents difficulties, but we can penetrate it. We do not need to pare 23
it back to a single, immutable interpretation. We can unpack the sources’ language of social and 24
emotional chaos that obscures the Jacquerie’s connection the Parisian rebellion, but we need not 25
reduce the revolt to its leaders’ strategic objectives any more than we should define it by the 26
chancery’s talk of terror. As much in the eyes of its protagonists as of its victims, the Jacquerie 27
was also a war of non-nobles against nobles and an inherent challenge to the social order. These 28
interpretations are not contradictory, or even necessarily complementary. The Jacquerie simply 29
meant different things to different people at different times. 30
It is tempting to generalise this insight to revolts at large, especially as similarities can be 31
found elsewhere in this volume in discussions of the English Rising of 1381 and the sixteenth- 32
century War of the Communities of Castile. I would urge some caution, though, at least in 33
degree. All large-scale, collective actions must have some ‘fuzzy edges’, but this indefinite quality 34
may be especially pronounced in these kinds of very big revolts with major rural components, 35
which though famous, were relatively rare.113 By contrast with their rustic counterparts, urban 36
rebels had long traditions of ‘contentious politics’ and very complex systems of internal govern- 37
ance and social differentiation. They could employ pre-existing infrastructure and rhetoric, as 38
well as an established repertoire of provocative acts, including the production of documents, for 39
staking their claims.114 Rural rebels, of course, were not without socio-political infrastructure or 40
traditions stemming from practices as diverse as cooperative agriculture, the maintenance of the 41
parish church, or collective legal action.115 The Jacques clearly employed existing village organ- 42
isation, and they might well have remembered earlier uprisings, such as a revolt outside Laon in 43
1338, the great Flemish Maritime Revolt of 1323–8 and its antecedents, or a number of 44
thirteenth-century fiscal uprisings south of Paris about which we know too little.116 The 45
Jacquerie had echoes in later rural rebellions, even far away or long in the future.117 But neither 46
the Jacques themselves nor their immediate ancestors had ever really done this before. What it 47
meant was open to interpretation. 48

32 Compiègne (AN JJ 86, no. 444, fol. 156, ed. Luce, Histoire, no. 39); and an unnamed nobleman killed
33 near Pontpoint when it was discovered that he was a spy (AN JJ 96, no. 425, fol. 145; ed. Luce, His-
34 toire, no. 62).
85 Froissart, Jean le Bel, and Jean de Venette report rape, the Chronique des règnes, Chronique normande,
35 and Chroniques des . . . Valois do not. Remission: pro suspicione plurium & diversorum homicidiorum, incen-
36 diorum, raptorum (AN JJ 88, no. 1, fols 1–2, lost until now because erroneously cited as AN JJ 87, no.
37 1 in Luce, Histoire). On the absence of rape from the remissions, see Aiton, ‘ “Shame” ’, pp. 180–3.
38 Rape was generally a pardonable crime in fourteenth-century France (C. Gauvard, ‘De grace especial’:
39 Crime, État, et société en France à la fin du Moyen Âge, 2 vols, Paris: Publiations de la Sorbonne, 1991,
vol. 1, p. 308, 330–39, vol. 2, pp. 813–17), though under Marcel and le Coq the Estates General had
40
attempted to forbid the crown from remitting it in 1357 (Secousse (ed.), Les ordonnances, vol. 3,
41 pp. 128–9).
42 86 AN JJ 95, no. 121, fols 47–8r.
43 87 The most illuminating story in this regard is that of Mahieu de Roye’s family, which appears only in
44 Chicago, Newberry Library, MS F.37, vol. 2, fols 168–9r (transcribed at www.hrionline.ac.uk/

45
Froissart’s narrative use of rape see de Medeiros, Jacques et chroniqueurs, ch. 2.

89 For example, In 1364, a squire sued a Jacques for damages of 300 écus incurred during the commotio 1
gentium de plana patria when he and other nonnobiles burned the squire’s house (hospicius) and stole his 2
goods (AN X1a 18, fol. 204r).

90 A droit d’arsin authorised Flemish communities to destroy the homes and castles of publicly offensive
individuals: A. Delcourt, La vengeance de la commune: l’arsin et l’abattis de maison en Flandre et en Hainaut, 4
Lille: É. Raoust, 1930. Many Northern French communities also had this right (ibid., pp. 20–3), and 5
French royal courts sometimes meted out this punishment to violent nobles, e.g. AN X1a 12, fols 6
239v–40r. J. Dumolyn sees this as a keystone of communal mobilisation in Flemish rebellions: ‘The 7
vengeance of the commune: sign systems of popular politics in medieval Bruges’, in Oliva Herrer et 8
al. (eds), La comunidad, pp. 251–89. See also Challet’s chapter in this volume.
91 J. le Bel, Chronique, ed. Viard and Déprez, vol. 2, p. 259 reports that the nobles went to Creil because 9
they thought the Jacques were based there. He does not say whether they were right. One Jacques 10
repaired to the fortress of Cramoisy, but this was after (depuis) the revolt (AN JJ 90, no. 378, 11
fol. 239). 12

100 Three remissions for villages in Champagne say that the Jacquerie was directed against both clerics and 38
nobles, but this was not a general feature of the revolt (AN JJ 86, no. 357, fol. 122, ed. Luce, Histoire, 39
