Encyclopedic overview
Robert Curthose (French: Robert Courteheuse; c. 1051 – c. 3 February 1134) was the eldest son of William the Conqueror and Duke of Normandy as Robert II from 1087 to 1106.
Robert was twice an unsuccessful pretender to the throne of the Kingdom of England. The epithet "Curthose" originated in the Norman French word courtheuse ("short stockings"). The chroniclers William of Malmesbury and Orderic Vitalis wrote that his father had derisively called him brevis-ocrea ("short boot").
