Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Chivalry, or Knighthood and Its Times Froissart wrote his Chronicles to the intent that the honourable and noble adventures of feats of arms, done and achieved in the wars of France and England, should notably be enregistered, and put in perpetual memory whereby the preux and hardy might have ensample to encourage them in their well To accomplish his purpose, he followed and frequented the company of divers noble and great lords, as well in France, England, and Scotland, as in other countries; and in their chivalric festivals he inquired for tales of arms and amours. For three years he was clerk of the chamber to Philippa of Hainault, wife of Edward III. He travelled into Scotland; and, though mounted only on a simple palfrey, with his trunk placed on the hinder part of his saddle, after the fashion in which a squire carried the mail-harness of a knight, and attended only by a greyhound, the favourite dog of the time, instead of a train of varlets, yet the fame of his literary abilities introduced him to the castle of Dalkeith, and the court of the Scottish king.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twentieth Century Knighthood: A Series of Addresses to Young Men Chivalry during its golden days made the world a much pleasanter place in which to live. It did away with low suspicions and jealousies and filled the land with an atmos phere of noble hospitality and courtesy. The historian tells us that in England in those days charity Of manners reigned in all; noble dames and gentle knights placed on the top Of their castles a helmet, as a sign that all good knights and worthy ladies traveling that way should enter as freely into the castle as if it were their own. The greatest lords accepted without any scruple this sort of liberality; not consideringwit so mulch a personal gift as that it associated them in the enterprises and glory of knighthood. But the courtesy they learned in these castles was above all riches; no spirit of discord or peevishness was ever allowed in these knights toward one another; and their manners displayed every kind Of friendship and good will. Thus was chivalry in those dark ages a source of continual benefits; and its peculiar glories shone forth in the noble actions Of valor, of friendship, Of gratitude.

Download or read book A Knight s Own Book of Chivalry written by Geoffroi de Charny and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the great influence of a valiant lord: "The companions, who see that good warriors are honored by the great lords for their prowess, become more determined to attain this level of prowess." On the lady who sees her knight honored: "All of this makes the noble lady rejoice greatly within herself at the fact that she has set her mind and heart on loving and helping to make such a good knight or good man-at-arms." On the worthiest amusements: "The best pastime of all is to be often in good company, far from unworthy men and from unworthy activities from which no good can come." Enter the real world of knights and their code of ethics and behavior. Read how an aspiring knight of the fourteenth century would conduct himself and learn what he would have needed to know when traveling, fighting, appearing in court, and engaging fellow knights. Composed at the height of the Hundred Years War by Geoffroi de Charny, one of the most respected knights of his age, A Knight's Own Book of Chivalry was designed as a guide for members of the Company of the Star, an order created by Jean II of France in 1352 to rival the English Order of the Garter. This is the most authentic and complete manual on the day-to-day life of the knight that has survived the centuries, and this edition contains a specially commissioned introduction from historian Richard W. Kaeuper that gives the history of both the book and its author, who, among his other achievements, was the original owner of the Shroud of Turin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Chivalry Guibert of N ogent did not visit the Holy Land but he lived during the first crusade, and, in com mon with all Europe, felt deeply interested in the fate of that expedition. He examined and noted with accuracy all the anecdotes which reached Europe, and painted, with great vivacity, scenes that he had not himself witnessed. In his account of the crusade many circumstances, evincing strongly the spirit of the age, are to be met with which do not appear elsewhere; and, as we have every reason to feel sure of his general accuracy, it is but fair to suppose that these are well founded.

Download or read book Knights in Training written by Heather Haupt and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing chivalry back into our modern-day world, this book shows us how to inspire today's generation of young boys to pursue honor, courage, and compassion. In an age when respect and honor seem like distant and antiquated relics, how can we equip boys to pursue valor and courageously put the needs of others before their own? This book helps parents to inspire their boys by captivating their imagination and honoring their love for adventure. Heather Haupt explores how knights historically lived out various aspects of the knights' Code of Chivalry, as depicted in the French epic Song of Roland, and how boys can embody these same ideals now. When we issue the challenge and give boys the reasons why it is worth pursuing, we step forward on an incredible journey towards raising the kind of boys who, just like the knights of old, make an impact in their world now and for the rest of their lives.
Download or read book The Seven Champions of Christendom written by Agnes R. Matthews and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Seven Champions of Christendom: A Legendary Romance of Chivalry The form of chivalry was martial, but its objects were both religious and social. It was the knights who made the crusades glorious and hastened the dawn of our own age, for they were free agents and, in the later develop ment of knight-errantry, were the means of putting down the misrule of feudal times. Until the discipline of laws had trained the world to order, force was the only measure of power; so the great principle of chivalry, the proteo tion of the oppressed, made knights the champions of women, of the poor, and of the Church. Absolute fidelity to a promise was a conspicuous knightly virtue, and no one could tourney who had not kept his oath in every particular. Honor was the quest of the true knight, so when he was not fighting in his country's wars, or errant in search of adventures, he fought amongst the chivalry of foreign princes.
