Abstract
This chapter begins by examining John II’s voluntary return to English captivity in 1364 and the resurgence of his use of display to compete with his Plantagenet rival. It then moves on to analyse how Edward III treated John II’s body after the French monarch died in England in April 1364. The book concludes by considering the lasting effects of the developments in the portrayal of the royal image which came a result of John II’s competition for status with Edward III and the Black Prince during his four years in captivity.
