FERDINAND IV

This article appears in Volume V10, Page 266 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: FAT-FLA
FERDINAND IV ., El Emplazado or "the Summoned," king of Castile (d. 1312), son of Sancho El Bravo, and his wife Maria de Molina, is a figure of small
note
  in Spanish
history
 . His strange
title
  is given him in the chronicles on the strength of a story that he put two
brothers
  of the name of Carvajal to death tyrannically, and was given a time, a plaza, by them in which to answer for his crime in the next world. But the tale is not contemporary, and is an obvious copy of the story told of Jacques de Molay, grand-master of the Temple, and Philippe Le Bel. Ferdinand TV. succeeded to the
throne
  when a boY ofsix. His minority was a time of anarchy. He owed his escape from the violence of competitors and nobles, partly to the tact and undaunted bravery of his
mother
  Maria de Molina, and partly to the loyalty of the citizens of Avila, who gave him
refuge
  within their walls. As a king he proved ungrateful to his
mother
 , and weak as a ruler. He died suddenly in his tent at Jaen when preparing for a raid into the Moorish territory of
Granada
 , on the 7th of September 1312.
