In his native Dutch language and in German, the latter appears as either ''Baten'' or ''Bate''; in French and English the latter spelling clearly prevails. Hence in these languages he is referred to as ''Hendrik Bate an Mechelen', ''Heinrich .html" ;"title="ate[n">ate[n von Mecheln'', ''Henri [Batede Malines'', and ''Henry [Bate] of Mechelen'' respectively although in particular in English, the French translation of his birthplace is equally common: ''of Malines'' (and in German one very rarely finds ''de Malines'' and once ''von Malines'').

14th-century Writers In Latin
The 14th century lasted from 1 January 1301 (represented by the Roman numerals MCCCI) to 31 December 1400 (MCD).

John of Avesnes (1 May 1218 – 24 December 1257) was the count of Hainaut from 1246 to his death. Life Born in Houffalize, John was the eldest son of Margaret II of Flanders by her first husband, Bouchard IV of Avesnes. As the marriage of Margaret and Bouchard was papally dissolved, he was considered illegitimate. His mother was remarried to William II of Dampierre and bore more children who could claim her inheritance. Thus, John and his brother Baldwin undertook to receive imperial recognition of their legitimacy and did so from the Emperor Frederick II. On 5 December 1244, Margaret inherited Flanders and Hainaut and designated her eldest son by her second husband, William III of Dampierre, as her heir. Immediately a war, called the War of the Succession of Flanders and Hainault, was set off over the rights of inheritance, pitting John against William. After two years of fighting, in 1246, Louis IX of France intervened to settle the conflict and granted Hainaut to John and F ...
