The Book of the Knight of the Tower: Manners for Young Medieval Women

by Rebecca Barnhouse

Book Overview

This book explores knightly stories of medieval manners and is a commentary on what people in the middle ages wore, how they prayed and what they hoped for in this life and the next. These stories range from the shockingly bawdy to the deeply pious, and often end with morals about the ways women can avoid 'blame, shame, and defame'.
