Description

This groundbreaking reassessment examines the multifaceted role of armour, weapons and heraldry in medieval warfare, revealing their cultural and military significance far beyond mere functionality. The author provides a penetrating investigation into medieval martial display, offering sophisticated analysis of historical and literary sources. A key strength lies in the subtle exploration of armour's dual purpose: its practical defensive role and its function as a form of cultural display on the battlefield. This refreshingly original approach challenges conventional interpretations of medieval combat, positioning the combatant within a broader social and symbolic context. Published by Boydell Press, this work stands as essential reading for historians, medieval scholars and anyone interested in understanding how warriors used weaponry and heraldic symbols to communicate status, identity and power during the medieval period.
