Periodization for the end of chivalry helps to shape scholarly understanding of the nature of the European Renaissance and of the early modern period itself.Īl-Sulami, Ibn al-Husayn. European chivalric culture was transformed by tensions between courtliness and prowess and between history and legend, as well as by the rise of the early modern state and the construction of its new armies and bureaucracies. These ideals appear somewhat consistently starting in the twelfth century in both proscriptive literature for real knights and imaginative literature and chivalric romance. These were loyalty to one’s lord, skillful fighting on horseback (prowess), and generosity to one’s men (largesse). While there was no “chivalric code” that all knights ascribed to, it is possible to identify several core chivalric ideals which appear in numerous types of sources over time. ![]() Chivalric values often greatly contrasted with reality and were not embraced or acted upon by all warriors, knights, or nobility. These values differed in time and in place and interacted with other cultural values, such as those of the European Renaissance movement. Broadly speaking, chivalry or chivalric culture was a set of values cultivated by Europe’s military elite from the twelfth to the seventeenth century. ![]()
