Joan II, Countess of Burgundy ((フランス語:Jeanne); 15 January 1292 – 21 January 1330), was the eldest daughter and heiress of Otto IV, Count of Burgundy, and Mahaut, Countess of Artois, and was Queen of France as the wife of Philip V of France. ==Biography== In the beginning of 1314, Joan's sister Blanche and her sister-in-law Margaret were convicted of adultery with two knights, upon the testimony of their sister-in-law, Isabella in the Tour de Nesle Affair. Joan was thought to have known of the affairs, and was placed under house arrest at Dourdan as punishment. She continued to protest her innocence, as did her husband, who had refused to repudiate her, and by 1315 - through the influence of her mother and husband - her name had been cleared by the Paris Parlement, and she was allowed to return to court. Nevertheless, her daughter Joan, born on 2 May 1308, could hardly be suspected of illegitimacy, since the Tour de Nesles entered the royal domain only in 1308, after she was conceived, and since it is believed that, away from the court, Blanche and Margaret committed adultery there only from 1311. With the death of King John I of France, her husband became King Philip V of France; Joan became queen consort. She was crowned with her husband at Reims on 9 January 1317. After her acquittal and return to the royal court, Joan and Philip produced two more children; neither survived childhood. Her father, the Count of Burgundy, died in 1302, and his titles were inherited by his only legitimate son, Robert. Upon Robert's death in 1315, the County of Burgundy was inherited by Joan. In 1329, she inherited her mother's County of Artois. After her husband's death, Joan lived in her own domains. She died at Roye-en-Artois, on 21 January 1330, and was buried in Saint-Denis beside her husband. Her titles were inherited by her eldest daughter, Joan III, who had married Odo IV, Duke of Burgundy, in 1318. With Joan II's death, the County and Duchy of Burgundy became united through this marriage. The Counties of Burgundy and Artois were eventually inherited by her younger daughter Margaret in 1361. Joan left provision in her will for the founding of a college in Paris; it was named ''Université de Bourgogne'', "Burgundy University." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joan II, Countess of Burgundy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
