>wanting the learned men of England to have their heads filled with frog lies

Seriously though

Maybe he realised their was no point in investing a power base in france and wanted to pull out?
Or maybe he had a fallout with the king of france?

Because then he was dependent upon France
His whole life was about control, if it was His universities then he could control how they were educated
>tfw no Frenglish with latin for official documents
Should Provence and the Low Countries be included in this union

Do you even know who Henry II was?
A French Count who accidentally became King of England one day

Henry II wanted the Plantagenets to rival the Valois as the most powerful family in France, and Paris was the Valois capital

>accidentally

Yes, let's just ignore that brutal war his mommy waged for him.

Is that how Oxford became a centre of European intellectualism?

Don't know, but it certainly didn't under Henry II
His capital was neither London nor Oxford, but Chinon

No his capital was London because that’s where he spent the most time
Chinon was essential to his empire tho
>accidentally
Yeah not like his mum told him he was the rightful holder and that the king of England had the power of an emperor

Yeah but London and Chinon didn't have great universities
At the time, Paris and Oxford were the only great universities in Europe at the time (i think they were actually the only universities!)

>Italy doesn’t exist
Are we saying something with the official title of university or merely somewhere where priests are trained, if so, most churches had seminaries nearby

Henry II lived in 1133-1189 for REFRENCE

Because French universities were already full of leftist pseuds postmodern intellectuals.

>leftist pseudo science
>not cultural Marxists who would inspire Marx
Wew lad

Google it. Probably had something to do with his rivalry with the Valois dynasty, or perhaps because France was an enemy at the time, or it might even have something to do with Beckett telling him not to send them there. Or maybe he just wanted the English monks to be taught in English institutions

>or perhaps because France was an enemy at the time

But Henry II was French

wasn't he at war with them?

so?

this is Feudalism

Technically what we call France today was split between the Angevin controlled lands of Normandy, Anjou and Aquitane while the rest was controlled by the French valois. French referring to nationality as opposed to ethnicity
