Chivalry and Courtesy: Medieval Manners for a Modern World
Medieval people are often portrayed as having poor hygiene and table manners, but truth is that during the Middle Ages such behaviour was not tolerated, rather medieval society cherished order in nearly every facet of life. Chivalry and Courtesy explores the world of medieval etiquette, customs, and beliefs to reveal its surprising history and how modern readers can apply its ideals (of kindness, respect, and generosity) to inform their own lives.
Drawing on a wide variety of primary sources from handbooks for young knights to romantic poems to offer good advice for anyone, Chivalry and Courtesy also pairs original illustrations and drawings with more than seventy-five medieval artworks to bring the time period to life for modern readers.
