This dissertation asserts that the authors of the Ordene de chevalerie, the Livre de chevalerie of Geoffroi de Charny and the Espejo de verdadera nobleza create an image of knightly masculinity that demonstrates its superiority over other forms of medieval masculinity. At the same time, each text serves a secondary purpose; elucidating the values and political aims of its author. The Ordene de chevalerie demonstrates the hegemonic nature of knighthood by means of its frame story while at the same time trying to show how the knighthood is intimately linked to Christian faith by means of the ritual of initiation into the knighthood. The Livre de chevalerie provides guidance on how to obtain honor and prowess, while at the same showing how the knighthood is superior to the clerical class, another powerful mode of medieval masculinity. The Espejo de verdadera nobleza demonstrates that the hegemonic form of masculinity embodied in the knighthood was open to those who showed the necessary characteristics and won the approval of the sovereign. The Espejo acts as means of iv institutionalizing the knighthood and shows the first imaginings of how the knighthood would change with the advent of the Renaissance. By using a theoretical framework more common to the fields of sociology and management studies to explore these texts, this dissertation demonstrates how theories that are accepted in these fields may be applied to literary and medieval studies. This dissertation also seeks to bring greater attention to the genre of chivalric conduct literature, a genre that does not receive as much attention from scholars as other medieval genres such as epic and romance. This dissertation seeks to show that chivalric conduct literature is a fruitful field of study and that these three lesser known works in this genre provide valuable medieval perspectives on the concepts of knightly masculinity. Although these authors define knighthood differently, they all agree that knighthood plays a defining role in constructing and modeling a superior form of masculinity. v CURRICULUM VITAE NAME OF AUTHOR: Anthony Patrick Tribit GRADUATE AND UNDERGRADUATE SCHOOLS ATTENDED: University of Oregon, Eugene Gettysburg College, Gettysburg DEGREES AWARDED: Doctor of Philosophy, Romance Languages, 2017, University of Oregon Master of Arts, Romance Languages, 2010, University of Oregon Bachelor of Arts, French and Spanish, 2005, Gettysburg College AREAS OF SPECIAL INTEREST: Men’s Studies Chivalry and Knighthood Organizational Studies Discourse Theory PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE: Graduate Employee, University of Oregon, 2008-2017 Assistant, Special Collections, Gettysburg College, 2007 Assistant Language Teacher, Nagasaki Board of Education, 2005-2007 GRANTS, AWARDS, AND HONORS: Beall Scholarship, University of Oregon, 2013 Gettysburg College Senior Scholarship, Gettysburg College, 2005 vi ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to Prof. David A.

CONCLUSION...................................................................................................... 164 REFERENCES CITED ................................................................................................ 169 ix CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION If a modern man wishes to better enact the construction of masculinity that he is going to personify, he need only to go to the local bookstore and there he will find an array of titles that cover the different types of roles he may play in his family and society. He will find books on topics such as being a better husband and father or a better employee. Although a man may be born with the male gender, he must learn to embody manhood as he believes it should be performed. This knowledge may come from following the examples of other men, such as his father or fictional characters. He may also turn to books that describe an ideal of manliness and how to obtain it. In this way, he is able to create, or “make” an identity such as that of father, leader, or even knight. The modern self-help books mentioned above are only the latest iteration of a genre of literature that existed even in the Middle Ages. Medieval manuals that sought to teach the reader how to better fulfill their duty exist in various types from Mirrors for Princes such as John of Salisbury’s Policratus, which teaches about political matters, to manuals which covered more mundane aspects of daily life such as the Ménagier de Paris, which instructs a medieval urban lady on how to best fulfill her household duties. There were also manuals written for and about the knighthood. This dissertation explores three manuals of chivalric conduct in particular, the Ordene de chevalerie (circa 1220), the Livre de chevalerie de Geoffroi de Charny (circa 1350), and the Espejo de verdadera nobleza (circa 1441). I propose that the authors of these three manuals create a specific vision of knightly masculinity that aligns with their specific visions of the role that knights should play in society. In these texts, the authors also demonstrate to the reader 1 why their visions of knighthood are the dominant form of masculinity in the social context from which they write. The manuals in the genre of chivalric conduct literature teach knights their duty and how to better assume the role of a knight. These manuals are didactic in nature and often do not contain a plot. These texts offer the reader the opportunity to study explicit explanations of the values and duties of the knight. These explanations were often colored by the personal beliefs of their writers and so present various conceptions of the way in which knighthood should be enacted, providing a varied and nuanced body of texts. Unfortunately, this genre of literature has not yet received a thorough treatment by modern scholars of the Middle Ages. This dissertation attempts to rectify this issue by analyzing these three very different works of chivalric conduct literature in order to examine how their authors support a conception of knighthood that presents itself as the hegemonic medieval masculinity. Judith Butler discusses masculine hegemony in her book Gender Trouble. For Butler, “gender trouble” is a means of subverting “masculine hegemony and heterosexist power” (80). Instead of subverting masculine hegemony, however, this dissertation examines how this male supremacy is maintained by using the theoretical concept of hegemonic masculinity proposed by R.W. Connell in her book Masculinities (1995). This theory originates in the field of sociology and has not been used as a theoretical framework for the study of medieval literature. The three works studied in this dissertation come from disparate geographical locations and different periods in medieval history. The first two texts come from northern France, the third text was written in the kingdom of Castile. What unifies the 2 works in this project is that together, they offer the opportunity to examine how authors from diverse segments of medieval society envision the ideal knight. Each work is written by a member of a different section of the traditional tripartite view of feudal medieval society, which in this view was composed

Cristalián de España, as the text is referred to, was printed twice in its full book form, four parts and 304 folios. It was also well-received outside of the peninsula, and published twice in its Italian translation. This incunabulum is quite a contribution to the chivalric genre for many reasons. It is not only well-written and highly entertaining, but it is the only known Castilian romance of its kind written by a woman. This detail cannot be over-emphasized. Chivalric tales have been enjoyed for centuries and throughout many different mediums. Readers and listeners alike had been enjoying these romances years before the libros de caballerías reached the height of their popularity in Spain.

    The Constraints Laws on Warfare in the Western World War Edited by Michael Howard, George J. Andreopoulos, and Mark R. Shulman Yale University Press New Haven and London Robert C . Stacey 3 The Age of Chivalry To those who lived during them, of course, the Middle Ages, as such, did not exist. If they lived in the middleof anything, most medieval people saw themselves as living between the Incarnation of God in Jesus and the end of time when He would come again; theirown age was thus a continuation of the era that began in the reign of Caesar Augustus with his decree that all the world should be taxed. The Age of Chivalry, however, some men of the time- mostly knights, the chevaliers, from whose name we derive the English word "chivalry"-would have recognized as an appropriate label for the years between roughly I 100 and 1500.Even the Age of Chivalry, however, began in Rome. In the chansons de geste and vernacular histories of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, Hector, Alexander, Scipio, and Julius Caesar appear as the quintessential exemplars of ideal knighthood, while the late fourth or mid-fifth century Roman military writer Vcgetius remained far and away the most important single authority on the strategy and tactics of battle, his book On Military Matters (De re military passing in transla- tion as The Book of Chivalry from the thirteenth century on. The Middle Ages, then, began with Rome; and so must we if we are to study the laws of war as these developed during the Age of Chivalry.

Bodies of Knowledge: The Presentation of Personified Figures in Engraved Allegorical Series Produced in the Netherlands, 1548-1600 Abstract During the second half of the sixteenth century, engraved series of allegorical subjects featuring personified figures flourished for several decades in the Low Countries before falling into disfavor. Designed by the Netherlandsâ?? leading artists and cut by professional engravers, such series were collected primarily by the urban intelligentsia, who appreciated the use of personification for the representation of immaterial concepts and for the transmission of knowledge, both in prints and in public spectacles. The pairing of embodied forms and serial format was particularly well suited to the portrayal of abstract themes with multiple components, such as the Four Elements, Four Seasons, Seven Planets, Five Senses, or Seven Virtues and Seven Vices. While many of the themes had existed prior to their adoption in Netherlandish graphics, their pictorial rendering had rarely been so pervasive or systematic.

    Sermon Series: Basics of the Church Sermon title: Baptism Scripture Reading: Romans 6:1-11 Clearwater Bay International Baptist Church February 10, 2019 S.C. Brown, Pastor Next week we will begin a new series called The Big Picture where we will take a look at the major themes of the Bible; somewhat of a Bible overview in several weeks. Before we do that next week, I have one free Sunday where I’d like to take the opportunity to tackle the topic of Baptism. What is Baptism? Why do we do it? What does it mean? How should we do it? You might think that is an easy question but maybe nothing has caused so much division amongst the Christian church as the topic of Baptism. Let’s pray together and ask God’s help. ————————————————————————- Our church is called Clearwater Bay International Baptist Church. Clearwater Bay kind of our area. International is who we are. We are a multiethnic congregation and in Hong Kong, “International” usually means our services are in English. But what about the B word…Baptist? Why is that there? Why are we Baptists? "1 Let me give you a simplified little history. Baptist groups came out of the Protestant Reformation in the 1500 & 1600’s because they didn’t baptize babies like almost everyone else. So, they were called ‘Anabaptists’, because they were baptized again, convinced that they were to be baptized as believers and not as infants. They were persecuted by Protestants and Catholics alike due to their getting baptized as adults, re-baptized, even though they had been baptized as babies.

As for the over bearing message of Christianity throughout the text it, it was written in 13th century France, of course it's going to be filled with overt religious tones - everyone was then. Beware the "holier-than-thou". Geoffroi also goes on to describe ball games as a women's sport that men have wrongly taken from them! Kaeuper A Knights Own Book of Chivalry: Geoffroi De Charny. Geoffroi's fortitude and devotion become apparent almost immediately and I couldn't help but admire him. Thus, the great lords in particular must be temperate in their eating habits, avoid gambling and greed, indulge only in honorable pastimes such as jousting and maintaining the company of ladies, keep any romantic liaisons secret, and—most importantly—only be found in the company of worthy men. He says nothing about spiritual counseling, community service, or politics whatsoever. Lists with This Book. A neat article. Geoffroi isn't much for games, but knows that young men will inevitably play them. Once, when he was captured by the English, Geoffroi's captor actually released him, trusting him to go back home to raise money for his own ransom which, as far as we can tell, Geoffroi actually did.
