Maurice Keen provides a definitive examination of the chivalric code, tracing its evolution from a military ethos to a complex social ideal that shaped the aristocratic culture of medieval Europe. By analyzing the interplay between martial practice, courtly literature, and heraldic tradition, the text illuminates how these values defined the identity and conduct of the knightly class across centuries.
