Chivalric Code of Conduct Chivalric Code of Conduct Chivalry—The word, "chivalry", comes from the French word, "chevalerie", which means "skills to handle a horse." The ability to handle a horse, especially in combat, was of utmost importance to a medieval knight. As the Middle Ages progressed, the term "chivalry" began to take on new meanings. It was around the time of the preaching of the first crusade (1095 AD) that the Christianization of knights began in earnest. With the crusades as a "holy war" the pope needed the support of the nobles Code of Chivalry and knights of Europe to help him with his agenda of ridding Jerusalem of Islam, and returning the "land of Christ" to Christian To fear God and maintain His Church sovereignty. By bestowing the title of Christian warriors to the To serve the liege lord in valor and faith knights, the pope had begun the evolution of a code of conduct that all knights were supposed to follow. To protect the weak and defenseless To give succor to widows and orphans The protection of the poor, women and children, and defense of the church were just some of the chivalry codes that a knight was To refrain from the wanton giving of offence supposed to always obey. In combat when nobles and knights were To live by honor and for glory taken prisoner, their lives were spared and were often held for ransom in somewhat comfortable surroundings. This same code of To despise pecuniary reward conduct did not apply to non-knights (archers, peasants, foot- To fight for the welfare of all soldiers, etc.), who were often slaughtered after capture. To obey those placed in authority However well-intended this "chivalric code" was, it rarely affected To guard the honor of fellow knights most knights, who plundered, slaughtered, and looted often when To eschew unfairness, meanness and deceit given the chance. Our modern notion of knights is very much based in the ideas of chivalry, and it is the survival of medieval romantic To keep faith writings that tend to show knights as the chivalrous ideal, that At all times to speak the truth sways our view of medieval knighthood. To persevere to the end in any enterprise begun To respect the honor of women In the late Medieval and Medieval Romances— Never to refuse a challenge from an equal Renaissance period, the important European literary Never to turn thy back upon a foe. trend was to write fantastic fictions in the mode of Romance. Exemplary work, such as the English Le Morte d'Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory (c.1408–1471), recount the marvelous adventures of a chivalrous, heroic knight, often of super-human ability, who, abiding chivalry's strict codes of honor and demeanor, goes on a quest, and fights and defeats monsters and giants, thereby winning favor with a lady. Medieval romance stories focus not upon love and sentiment, but upon adventure and the hero’s struggle to achieve perfection—as defined by the Code of Chivalry. Reading Selections-- Le Morte d’Arthur, by Sir Thomas Malory (page 190) Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, by the Gawain Poet (handout) Was there ever a real King Arthur? Historians say yes, but not the one of the legends and stories. Back in the sixth century A. D., after the Romans vacated the British Isles because of their own troubles back home in Italy, Britain became an unstable mosaic of little kingdoms, each rules by its own despotic king or chieftain. Then, somewhere in the land, a strong chieftain appeared who managed to weld some of the little kingdoms together, repel the advances of Saxon invaders to the south, and make a larger kingdom called England. There are some scholars who suggest that this chieftain or king was not a Briton but a Roman, Cassius Arturus. But no one knows for sure. Whoever he was exactly, he was obviously the sort of leader around whom legends cluster. Through the years, and then through the centuries, people told each other stories about Arthur, giving him credit for all sorts of brave deeds, making him the focal figure of any exciting story of war or magic or romance, and changing the background details to make them contemporary and familiar. About the beginning of the Middle Ages, in the 12th century, a man named Geoffrey on Monmouth wrote down what he called the history of Arthur. It was a hodgepodge of all the tales and legends that had grown up over the years around the name of Arthur. In 1470, Sir Thomas Malory wrote out the whole Arthurian story once again, changing it, rearranging it, and adding bits and pieces from all the versions he had heard. He set the story in the early Middle Ages and he was the one who made Arthur the father of chivalry.

  • A Paul Harris Fellow Is a Person Who Has Been Recognized As Having Done Something Significant for Others
    PAUL HARRIS FELLOW A Paul Harris Fellow is a person who has been recognized as having done something significant for others. The Foundation recognizes them for the contribution of $ 1000, which will be spent on Humanitarian efforts around the world. A club recognizes them for service to the club and or the community. Individual Paul Harris Fellows recognize others for many reasons; admiration, service, love or whatever. In ALL cases the recognition is significant and something to be proud of. Who was Paul Harris? Paul Harris was the founder and organizer of the first Rotary Club in Chicago in 1905. He was founder of the Rotary idea, and the first president of the worldwide organization, Rotary International. Paul Harris died in 1947. Upon his death, memorial gifts poured in to honor the founder of Rotary. From that time, the Rotary Foundation has been achieving the noble objective of furthering “understanding and friendly relations between peoples of different nations”. In 1957, the idea of Paul Harris Fellow (PHF) recognition was first proposed as a means to promote voluntary giving to the Rotary Foundation. Although the concept of making $1,000 gifts to the Foundation was slow in developing, by the early 1970s the program began to gain popularity. The distinctive Paul Harris Fellow medallion, lapel pin and certificate have become highly respected symbols of a substantial commitment to The Rotary Foundation by Rotarians and friends around the world. Individual Members are encouraged to make contributions to The Foundation to gain Paul Harris Fellow recognition. Alternatively, many clubs provide recognition for outstanding service by contributing in the name of a Rotary member or in the name of a citizen of the community.

  • Masculinity and Chivalry: the Tenuous Relationship of the Sacred and Secular in Medieval Arthurian Literature
    MASCULINITY AND CHIVALRY: THE TENUOUS RELATIONSHIP OF THE SACRED AND SECULAR IN MEDIEVAL ARTHURIAN LITERATURE by KACI MCCOURT DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Texas at Arlington August, 2018 Arlington, Texas Supervising Committee: Kevin Gustafson, Supervising Professor Jacqueline Fay James Warren i ABSTRACT Masculinity and Chivalry: The Tenuous Relationship of the Sacred and Secular in Medieval Arthurian Literature Kaci McCourt, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2018 Supervising Professors: Kevin Gustafson, Jacqueline Fay, and James Warren Concepts of masculinity and chivalry in the medieval period were socially constructed, within both the sacred and the secular realms. The different meanings of these concepts were not always easily compatible, causing tensions within the literature that attempted to portray them. The Arthurian world became a place that these concepts, and the issues that could arise when attempting to act upon them, could be explored. In this dissertation, I explore these concepts specifically through the characters of Lancelot, Galahad, and Gawain. Representative of earthly chivalry and heavenly chivalry, respectively, Lancelot and Galahad are juxtaposed in the ways in which they perform masculinity and chivalry within the Arthurian world. Chrétien introduces Lancelot to the Arthurian narrative, creating the illicit relationship between him and Guinevere which tests both his masculinity and chivalry. The Lancelot- Grail Cycle takes Lancelot’s story and expands upon it, securely situating Lancelot as the best secular knight. This Cycle also introduces Galahad as the best sacred knight, acting as redeemer for his father. Gawain, in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, exemplifies both the earthly and heavenly aspects of chivalry, showing the fraught relationship between the two, resulting in the emasculating of Gawain.

  • Boston College Postdoctoral Research Fellow Policy
    September 28, 2018 Boston College Postdoctoral Research Fellow Policy Introduction Boston College (“the University”) recognizes the importance of assisting Postdoctoral Research Fellows (“Postdoc Fellows”) as they develop into independent investigators. Postdoc Fellow appointments offer advanced degree recipients a period in which to extend their education and professional training. The breadth of the academic community together with the physical resources in its libraries and laboratories make the University an ideal environment for postdoctoral training. While the University seeks to provide Postdoc Fellows with the opportunity to continue their academic training through on-site practice experience, many aspects of the relationship between the University and its Postdoc Fellows are also that of an employer- employee relationship. Therefore, the University has adopted this Postdoctoral Research Fellow Policy (the “Policy”) to delineate the obligations and expectations of all parties involved in Postdoc Fellow training. All Postdoc Fellows and Faculty Mentors must comply with the requirements set forth in this Policy. Any questions about the Policy should be directed to the University’s Office of the Vice Provost for Research (“VPR”). 1. Definition, Purpose, and Eligibility of Postdoctoral Research Fellow 1.1 Definition and Purpose: A Postdoctoral Research Fellow is an individual holding a doctoral degree or equivalent who is engaged in a temporary period of mentored research and/or scholarly training. The principal purpose of a Postdoc Fellow appointment is to acquire the professional skills needed to pursue an independent career path of the Postdoc Fellow’s choosing.

Pseudonymous Litigation Lior Jacob Strahilevitzt INTRODUCTION In March of 2003, Jane Doe, a sixteen-year-old student at Spring- field High School, slept with Jason Smith.' Subsequent events would show this to be a serious mistake. By sleeping with Smith, she was un- wittingly casting herself for the leading role in an amateur porno- graphic film. After videotaping their sexual encounter, Smith allegedly circulated his footage to fellow students at Doe and Smith's school.2 One of these students allegedly posted the media file on the Internet, and it seems to have been widely viewed by Doe and Smith's peers. Doe sued Smith for violating the federal Wiretap Act, and asserted state law tort causes of action for intentional infliction of emotional distress, invasion of privacy, eavesdropping, and battery. The case of Doe v Smith' eventually came before a panel of the Seventh Circuit, where Frank Easterbrook was the presiding judge. The trial court dismissed Doe's claims based on a faulty reading of the Wiretap Act. Writing for the court, Judge Easterbrook cogently ex- plained how the trial court had erred.
