Louis VII, “the Young”,
1137-1180
- not a strong king, but pious - in
1147, he inspired the 2nd Crusade - returned, beaten, two
years later to all sorts of problems - his
marriage to Eleanor of Acquitaine annulled in 1152 (she quickly married Henry II of England,
which gave Henry more power in France than Louis)
- 1170, the “masters” (teachers)
of Paris were recognized as a group, marking the beginning of the University of Paris
