This original and authoritative text reveals how chivalry was part of the problem of violence in medieval Europe, not merely it's solution. The ideal was to internalize restraint in knights, but a close reading of chivalric literature shows chivalry also praised heroic violence by knights. This fascinating book lays bare the conflicts and paradoxes surrounding the concept of chivalry in medieval Europe.
