The chivalric virtues of Raimund Löher

Many books have already been devoted to the subject of the Middle Ages, but they often only describe the dark, dirty, and brutal aspects of this period, rather than the many positive approaches. You can read time and again that, on the one hand, virtues are mentioned, but soon they are denied again because, overall, everything was quite bad. It was important for the author to write a book that dealt exclusively with chivalric virtues. The virtues discussed here are those one can still strive for today, if not one that should. Some prejudices are also discussed: Were women spoken of disparagingly, even in their presence? Did people wander around shops drunk, shouting and yelling when the day was done? Did knights really give off a bad smell? What about table manners? Anyone interested and, above all, an active participant in a knight's life is cordially invited to browse.
