A comprehensive study of every aspect of chivalry and chivalric culture.

Chivalry lay at the heart of elite society in the Middle Ages, but it is a nebulous concept which defies an easy definition. More than just a code of ethical behaviour, it shaped literary tastes, art and manners, as well as social hierarchies, political events and religious practices; its impact is everywhere. This work aims to provide an accessible and holistic survey of the subject. Its chapters, by leading experts in the field, cover a wide range of areas: the tournament, arms and armour, the chivalric society's organisation in peace and war, its literature and its landscape. They also consider the gendered nature of chivalry, its propensity for violence, and its post-medieval decline and reinvention in the early modern and modern periods. It will be invaluable to the student and the scholar of chivalry alike.

Recenzijos

A Companion to Chivalry is an elegant, well-considered volume that is of interest to both students and specialists, [ ...] it is a must-have for university libraries. * NOTTINGHAM MEDIEVAL STUDIES * A Companion to Chivalry provides a masterful summary of half a century of scholarship on medieval chivalry, and will undoubtedly prove a useful reference point for graduate students, whilst clarifying for specialists the current state of the existing scholarship, as well as new avenues worth exploring in the future. * THE MEDIEVAL REVIEW * Overall this is a superb collection, a suitable companion to Keen's 1984 masterpiece, Chivalry. It usefully updates and expands Keen's work, highlighting subsequent scholarship and serving as a roadmap for students and scholars interested in chivalric ideas. * H-NET * En conclusion, A Companion to Chivalry - qui aurait pu s'intituler A Companion to Chivalries, compte tenu de la multiplicité des démarches - remplit sa mission. Cet ouvrage trouvera sa place entre les mains des étudiants comme des spécialistes, d'autant plus que l'objet-livre lui-mźme, en couleurs sur papier glacé, est d'une facture admirable. * SOCIAL HISTORY / HISTOIRE SOCIALE *
