<P> William's reign has caused historical controversy since before his death . William of Poitiers wrote glowingly of William's reign and its benefits, but the obituary notice for William in the Anglo - Saxon Chronicle condemns William in harsh terms . In the years since the Conquest, politicians and other leaders have used William and the events of his reign to illustrate political events throughout English history . During the reign of Queen Elizabeth I of England, Archbishop Matthew Parker saw the Conquest as having corrupted a purer English Church, which Parker attempted to restore .
