The mounted warriors of the Middle Ages and their fortified residences inspire awe, romance and power even today. In this class, you will learn how knights became a major element in European warfare; how they lived and fought; how they created a governing class and an elite social rank; how they fashioned an ideology of chivalry in art and literature and finally, how they declined.
