As oomf summarized to me after I explained the situation, he sounds like he was really "crashing out"

(Reference to this Tumblr post lol)

I'm pretty sure Pope Innocent III wanted to diagnose him to deal with the bullshit

Male Hysteria is a condition where a prolonged lack of prostate stimulation causes the patient to behave eratic and promiscuous, often to the detriment of his own life and the lives of others. Unfortunately it has never been diagnosed even once because nobody cares about mens mental health

Proof of Philip Augustus Male Hysteria
- acting erratic and promiscuous
- endangering ones own life and others, including jeapordizing ur entire political lifework
- onset IMMEDIATELY after breaking up with ur top

(JK but also lmaooo)

Philip's characteristic calculation and restraint, however, did not extend to his sexual life. He was apparently capable of normal sexuality, engendering a son Louis by his first wife, Isabelle de Hainaut, a second son Philip Hurepel and a daughter Marie by his concubine, Agnès de Méran, and another son Pierre Charlot by a furtive demoiselle of Arras. When Louis survived his childhood illnesses and the pope legitimized the second son Philip, the king had accomplished his royal duty of assuring the male line of the Capetians into the eighth generation. After the death of Isabelle, however, his second marriage to Ingeborg of Denmark lasted, at best, the night of 14 / 15 August 1193, and was anything but normal. Refusing her obsessively, Philip spent two full decades attempting to divorce the Danish princess against the successful resistance raised by the woman, the Danes, the French clergy, and the papacy. 46 So great was his personal aversion that he was willing to jeopardize his political lifework. When Inno-cent III placed the realm under interdict in 1200, Philip was reduced to making major concessions to his adversaries.

Capetians: succession is SOOOO easy! just hand the power over to ur eldest son. SIMPLE!!!

Tfw we can learn a lot about a guy's personality because he was so annoying people wrote a literary figure that is deliberately his exact opposite (generous, chivalrous, romantic, loyal, etc etc)

Pascal's Chimaera @angevinyaoiz.bsky.social · 16h

Philip: doesn't pay his knights a lot, spends more on mercenaries and machinery than chivalric tournaments, doesn't pay for knights robes, doesn't pay for troubadours, jongleurs, or entertainers...NO Christmas bonuses for the employees 😭 truly this is the court:

You've certainly come to the right place for it!

Julot on twt was mentioning to me a couple years ago about John Baldwin 's history writing like "you know he's a real stan when not only is he defending his military accomplishments, but also his personality" which not even people at the time were doing that dhfjdjjffb

That being said Philip dragging a lot of his senior nobles with him to the third crusade and being like "well 🤷" when they die and he's like "how sad....anyways now I can appoint people to fill their positions who will be indebted and loyal to me heehe"

Everyone relieved by the time Louis IX comes on the stage because it's like FINALLY....a normal person (tm) (unfortunately he's boring to be but it's cute his chronicler is a little in love with him haha)

All the (credible) historians and chroniclers being like: yes. He accomplished a lot of great and important stuff by the end of his life. Yes he expanded the crown lands. Yes it was undeniably efficient. His personal character? .....um....it was okay...I guess...

The Capetian history is especially interesting in the chronicles because you can see the different writers appealing to antiquity in describing and legitimizing their leaders–Rigord comparing him to Augustus of course, but Guillaume le Breton connecting him to Alexander

Pascal's Chimaera @angevinyaoiz.bsky.social · 17h

Medieval sources though are funny as hell, Guillaume de Breton getting so good at asskissing he's like 'the king produced miracles on his deathbed he should become a saint"

The Pope and the entire church: lol. Lmfao

Also a lot of misinformation is out there–a quote I use a lot Ive been frustrated trying to find a source because THE NAME OF THE AUTHOR IS MISSPELLED...I think one person misspelled it and several websites just copy pasted without thinking

I love being silly and playing fast and loose with the info but I really want to KNOW all the info...I've been hoarding so much the past couple years I just need to organize and discern my sources...

Pascal's Chimaera @angevinyaoiz.bsky.social · 18h

There's so much interesting information especially about Philip II that is technically pretty available online but just not gathered in a convenient way--obvioisly the big info is all out there on Wikipedia and whatever but it's not contextualized as much

Pascal's Chimaera @angevinyaoiz.bsky.social · 18h

I am gathering so much information I just need to find a fun way to display it...I kind of want to play with my site layout hmmm

Also he gets beat pretty bad and retches blood. That's very sexy of him sorry not sorry

Pascal's Chimaera @angevinyaoiz.bsky.social · 18h

Unrelated but I was curious, I keep seeing the "shepherd of the people" epithet applied to many characters esp Agamemnon, and I saw a similar epithet pop up in Gilgamesh, was wondering if that is also a PIE thing carrying over, obvs makes sense from shepherding societies but heah

Pascal's Chimaera @angevinyaoiz.bsky.social · 18h

Yeah it's like he suddenly becomes a supernatural figure-ish....very super Saiyan of him haha. Also the very animalistic attributes to him are so very prominent
