    Notes:

    Name:
    Antoine (4 June 1489 - 14 June 1544), known as the Good, was Duke of Lorraine from 1508 until his death in 1544.


    Biography
    Antoine was born at Bar-le-Duc, the son of René II, Duke of Lorraine and Philippa of Guelders.[1] He was raised at the court of King Louis XII together with his brother Claude, and also made friends with the Duke of Angoulême, the future King Francis I.

    In 1509 he entrusted the reins of the Duchy to his mother and Hugues des Hazards, bishop of Toul, and followed Louis XII in his campaign in northern Italy, where he took part in the Battle of Agnadello of that year.[2] After Louis' death, he went again to Italy under Francis I, participating in the battle of Marignano (14/15 September 1515).[3] However, called back home by problems in Lorraine, he was absent at the decisive battle of Pavia (1525), in which Francis was taken prisoner and his brother François, comte de Lambesc, was killed.[3]

    In Lorraine, Antoine had to face the spreading of Protestant Reformation, against which he published an edict on 26 December 1523.[4] The situation worsened the following year, when a rebellion, known as German Peasants' War, broke out in Alsace. The insurrectionists captured Saverne and tried to conquer Saint-Dié, while the peasants of Bitscherland also rose in May 1525. Antoine launched an expedition which reconquered Saverne on 17 May and crushed a peasant army on 20 May near Sélestat. He subsequently promulgated other edicts against the Protestants.

    Antoine was able to enlarge his duchy through heritages and acquisitions. Starting from 1525, he preferred to remain neutral in the wars which ensued between Francis I and Emperor Charles V. With the Treaty of Nuremberg (26 August 1542), he obtained by Charles V the independence of the Duchy of Lorraine

    In 1538, he claimed the titles of Duke of Guelders and Count of Zutphen upon the death of Charles of Egmond, but was unable to gain possession of them.

    By 1539, Antoine suffered from gout and asked his niece, Mary of Guise, to send him a Scottish hackney horse which he hoped to find easier to ride with his condition.[5]

    Family
    On 26 June 1515, he married Renée of Bourbon, daughter of Gilbert de Bourbon, Count of Montpensier by Clara Gonzaga.[3]

    He had six children:

    Francis I, Duke of Lorraine (1517?1545)[1]
    Nicholas, Duke of Merc?ur (1524?1577)[1]
    Jean (1526?1532)
    Antoine (b. 1528), d. young
    Anna (1522?1568), married firstly René of Châlon, Prince of Orange and secondly Philip II, Duke of Aerschot (1496?1549)
