Holy Warriors : The Religious Ideology Of Chivalry

Attribution
Richard W. Kaeuper
Publication Details
Book, University of Pennsylvania Press, 2009
Description
The medieval code of chivalry demanded that warrior elites demonstrate fierce courage in battle, display prowess with weaponry, and avenge any strike against their honor. Through these works, both clerics and lay military elites claimed God’s blessing for knighthood while avoiding the contradictions inherent in their fusion of chivalry with a religion that looked back to the Sermon on the Mount for its ethical foundation.

Attribution
edited by Colum Hourihane
Publication Details
Book, Index of Christian Art, Dept. of Art and Archeology, Princeton University, 2008

Difficulties as to when the Romanesque began or ended (even within individual countries), the disparities in local idioms of the style, and its intrinsic links to nationalism in a variety of countries in the post-medieval period have sometimes hindered scholarly research on a European scale.It is a period and style that is best studied with no classificatory platform, as the many essays in this volume indicate.

Attribution
Samuel K. Cohn, Jr
Publication Details
Book, Harvard University Press, 2006

Lust for Liberty challenges long-standing views of popular medieval revolts. Instead of structural explanations based on economic, demographic, and political models, this book turns to the actors themselves–peasants, artisans, and bourgeois–finding that the plagues wrought a new urgency for social and political change and a new self- and class-confidence in the efficacy of collective action.
