      abstract = {Popular views of medieval chivalry-knights in shining  armor, fair ladies, banners fluttering from  battlements-were inherited from the nineteenth-century  Romantics. This is the first book to explore chivalry's  place within a wider history of medieval England, from the  Norman Conquest to the aftermath of Henry VII's triumph at  Bosworth in the Wars of the Roses.Saul invites us to view  the world of castles and cathedrals, tournaments and round  tables, with fresh eyes. Chivalry in Medieval England  charts the introduction of chivalry by the Normans, the  rise of the knightly class as a social elite, the fusion of  chivalry with kingship in the fourteenth century, and the  influence of chivalry on literature, religion, and  architecture. Richard the Lionheart and the Crusades, the  Black Death and the Battle of Crecy, the Magna Carta and  the cult of King Arthur-all emerge from the mists of time  and legend in this vivid, authoritative account.},
