# Eleanor de Montfort ( 1252 – 1282 ).

# Eleanor ( 1215 – 1275 ), who would marry firstly William Marshal, 2nd Earl of Pembroke ; and secondly Simon de Montfort, 6th Earl of Leicester, by whom she had issue.

Though only Eleanor de Montfort can be definitively shown to have used the title, several consorts of native Welsh princes of Wales were theoretically princesses of Wales while their husbands were on the throne.

Richard opposed Simon de Montfort, and rose in rebellion in 1238 to protest against the marriage of his sister, Eleanor, to Simon.

" Eleanor Audeley ", wife of Sir John Davies, is said to have been brought before the High Commission in 1634 for extravagances, stimulated by the discovery that her name could be transposed to " Reveale, O Daniel ", and to have been laughed out of court by another anagram submitted by Sir John Lambe, the dean of the Arches, " Dame Eleanor Davies ", " Never soe mad a ladie ".

There is, however, an earlier Eleanor on record: Eleanor of Normandy, William the Conqueror's aunt, who lived a century earlier than Eleanor of Aquitaine.

It is Eleanor ’ s court in Poitiers that some believe to have been the ‘ Court of Love ’, where Eleanor and her daughter Marie meshed and encouraged the ideas of troubadours, chivalry, and courtly love into a single court.

That is not to say that Eleanor invented courtly love, for it was a concept that had begun to grow before Eleanor ’ s court arose.

Still, because we do not have much information about what occurred while Eleanor was in Poitiers, all that can be taken from this episode is that her court there was most likely a catalyst for the increased popularity of courtly love literature in the Western European regions.

Amy Kelly, in her article “ Eleanor of Aquitaine and her Courts of Love ”, gives a very plausible description of the origins of the rules of Eleanor's court: “ in the Poitevin code, man is the property, the very thing of woman ; whereas a precisely contrary state of things existed in the adjacent realms of the two kings from whom the reigning duchess of Aquitaine was estranged .”
