Sir Robert Malory, Prior of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem in England (1432-1439/40.)

Whatever his personal failings and those of his Order, the prior of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem, more than any other man in England in the late Middle Ages, stood for the political standards that were most respected, if not most often acted upon, by his fellow-countrymen. He was also one of die great magnates of the kingdom, given power, money, and access to the king by his rich priory based at Clerkenwell, the five preceptories his office entitled him to, and his places in the upper house of parliament and die royal council. What use the priors made of their office and how they lived up to the ideals they were supposed to embody were, therefore, matters of consequence at the time. The surviving records, though not abundant, seem sufficient to provide partial answers to these questions for at least some priors; but no such attempt has yet been published.

The 1330 Chapter General of the Knights Hospitallers at Montpellier

Of all the international military monastic orders of the Middle Ages only the Knights of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem have left reasonably complete records. The publication of documents from their archives has not, however, evenly represented the great historical epochs of the order's past; for the Holy Land period (ca. 1096–1291) we have almost everything, for the Rhodian era (1310–1522) we have almost nothing. This situation has not gone unnoticed, but it has remained uncorrected. Twenty-five years ago John La Monte reported that documents pertaining to the Hospitallers after 1310 were among the important lacunae of crusade historiography, and, more recently, James Brundage has called attention to the fact that nothing has been done to fill this gap. With the exception of a handful of documents published by Joseph Delaville Le Roulx one must still turn to Sebastiano Pauli's eighteenth-century miscellany for original records of the Hospitallers during the two centuries they held Rhodes. The proceedings of the Montpellier Chapter General published here represents a modest attempt to advance beyond the current state of affairs.

Fourteenth-Century Hospitaller Lawyers

Most of the Hospitallers of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem, who seized Rhodes between 1306 and 1310 and thereafter defended it against the infidels, came from knightly or petty noble families which gave them little formal education; probably many were illiterate. They were well fitted to garrison castles and serve on crusading expeditions in the Levant, and to administer the extensive European estates on which the Order relied for the men and money necessary to maintain its position at Rhodes. The more outstanding brethren were often employed as royal or papal councillors and captains, but they were not normally intellectuals. Faced with the complex legal problems arising from their relationships and disputes with popes, bishops and secular powers, the Hospitallers had to rely on hired professional lawyers. It appeared during the trial of the French Templars, whose background was similar to that of the Hospitallers, that the Master of the Temple was illiterate, that only a few Templars knew Latin, and that their lack of expert legal knowledge prevented them from defending themselves properly in the various inquests and trials which culminated in the dissolution of their Order in 1312. For their part, the Hospitallers' own disadvantages at law must have become especially clear to them during the protracted legal quarrels which ensued in the decades after 1312, when they tried to secure possession of the lands of the Templars which had been transferred to them by the pope. The Hospitallers must also have felt the burden of the heavy fees they had to pay their lawyers.
