  • Enguerrand de Bournonville (c. 1368 – 26 May 1414) was a general for John I of Burgundy during the Armagnac-Burgundian Civil War. He belonged to the Bournonville family, descended from the lords of the Boulonnais and many other generals. A younger brother of , he owned many minor lordships. First entering the court of Philip II of Burgundy then that of John I as a mere squire, Enguerrand de Bournonville fought in Italy, Pisa and Genoa, in the Pays de Liège, playing a decisive part in the Battle of Othée as well as in the Île-de-France, the Berry and Picardy. He rose to become a major general, often leading more than a hundred men, including members of his family such as his cousin . John I frequently made financial rewards to Enguerrand and – combined with his booty – this raised him a substantial fortune. He was captain of Soissons during Charles VI's siege of that city, in which the bastard of Bourbon was killed by a crossbow bolt. After the city was captured, Enguerrand de Bournonville was betrayed by and executed on the king's orders. One chronicler called him "the flower of all the captains of France" and the Burgundian camp preserved his memory. A tomb found in the town church in Marle, Aisne in the 19th century was initially thought to have been his but actually turned out to be that of his son . (en)
  • Enguerrand de Bournonville, né vers 1368 et mort exécuté le 26 mai 1414 à Soissons, est un chef de guerre au service du duc de Bourgogne Jean sans Peur pendant la guerre de Cent Ans, plus précisément pendant la guerre civile entre Armagnacs et Bourguignons. Il est issu d'un lignage noble de seigneurs du Boulonnais qui a donné plusieurs capitaines, la famille de Bournonville. Il possède plusieurs petites seigneuries mais est un cadet, son frère aîné étant Aleaume de Bournonville. Entré au service des ducs de Bourgogne Philippe le Hardi puis Jean sans Peur comme simple écuyer d'écurie, Enguerrand de Bournonville combat en Italie, à Pise et à Gênes, dans le pays de Liège — il participe de façon décisive à la bataille d'Othée — mais aussi en Île-de-France, dans le Berry et en Picardie. Il s'affirme progressivement comme un chef militaire de premier plan, souvent à la tête de plus d'une centaine d'hommes, dont plusieurs de sa famille, comme son cousin Lyonnel de Bournonville. Jean sans Peur récompense Enguerrand de Bournonville par de fréquentes gratifications financières, qui, ajoutées au butin de diverses opérations de guerre, l'enrichissent considérablement. Il est capitaine de Soissons pour le duc de Bourgogne lors du siège de cette ville par l'armée du roi Charles VI, pendant lequel un carreau d'arbalète tue le bâtard de Bourbon. La ville est prise, Enguerrand de Bournonville est trahi par Simon de Craon et meurt exécuté par ordre du roi. Un chroniqueur le qualifie alors de « fleur de tous les capitaines de France ». Le camp bourguignon conserve ensuite sa mémoire. Au XIXe siècle, on croit retrouver son tombeau dans l'église de Marle et on le reconstruit, mais cette tombe était plutôt celle de son fils Antoine de Bournonville. (fr)
