Description

The Chivalric Turn by Oxford University Press examines the medieval obsession with defining and practicing superior conduct. This work explores the social consequences that followed these standards in Europe before 1300. While historians since the seventeenth century have viewed these behaviors through the lens of Enlightenment-era chivalry, this book offers a different perspective. By utilizing the full range of twelfth- and thirteenth-century literature, the text defines what superior lay conduct meant during this period. The research covers a wide array of sources, including both European vernaculars and Latin texts. This study provides a detailed look at how conduct and hegemony functioned in medieval society, offering a fresh understanding of the era's social structures.
