Description
Une histoire magistrale des origines, de la vie quotidienne et de la legende des chevaliers. Ne du chaos europeen du debut du Moyen Age, le chevalier monte et en armure a revolutionne la guerre et est tres vite devenu une figure mythique dans l'histoire. Des conquerants normands de l'Angleterre aux croises de la Terre sainte, du heros de la chanson de geste au preux du roman arthurien, des amateurs de tournoi aux chevaliers-troubadours, Le Chevalier dans l'Histoire, de la grande medieviste Frances Gies, brosse un tableau remarquablement vivant et complet de la chevalerie, de sa naissance a son declin. Le chevalier apparait d'abord en Europe comme un mercenaire sans foi ni loi avant de devenir l'etendard de la chretiente puis un soldat de metier au service des rois. Frances Gies nous fait partager sa vie quotidienne, faite de joutes et de batailles, de pillages et de rancons, mais aussi de devotion et de pelerinage, et souvent sanctionnee par l'errance et une mort precoce. Elle nous fait revivre l'aventure des heros du Moyen Age qui ont joue un role historique, comme Bertrand du Guesclin, Bayard et Sir John Fastolf, qui inspira le Falstaff de Shakespeare, ou les grands maitres des Ordres militaires qu'etaient les Templiers, les Hospitaliers et les chevaliers teutoniques.
