Description:

Keen examines the significance of chivalry as a secular social ideal in c.1100-c.1500, & finds that historians exaggerated chivalry's early Christian dedication & its later secular decadence, & it may be better described as an ethos in which martial, aristocratic & Christian elements were fused together.
