The Chivalric Turn: Conduct and Hegemony in Europe before 1300 - Oxford Studies in Medieval European History
Crouch, David (Professor of Medieval History, Professor of Medieval History, University of Hull)
Historians have tended to understand medieval conduct through the eyes of Enlightenment historians, seeing superior conduct as 'knightly' behaviour, categorising it as chivalry. This book shows what superior lay conduct was in Europe before chivalry, and maps how and why chivalry emerged and redefined superior conduct in the late twelfth century.
