Restoring Chivalry

Chivalry is the type of thing that would be great to have in our society but I don’t believe that it exists too much anymore in the world today. Let me break down here some of the chivalry rules compared with the actions of the people of the current world.

Dictionary).  At the beginning of the Middle Ages, chivalry was strictly pigeon holed by its followers and members into only protecting religious pilgrimages and to maintain the church of God, to serve in valor and combat, and to bind oneself to courtly etiquette and the respect and protection of women.  Many of these beliefs and ideals stemmed from medieval literature, especially influenced by Spanish and Arabic literature, such as Arabian Nights, bringing forth

The act of “chivalry” has changed dramatically since the middle ages and since The Canterbury Tales was written. In “The Knight’s Tale”, Chaucer writes about the quest for love between two men who are in love with the same woman. This quest ends in death for one man and love for the other man. Chivalry in the middle ages included Knights that were expected to be warriors and attendants to the King. Knights were expected to fight to the death for love and then represent the kingdom because of their good deeds.

Chivalry has been around for centuries. It was around in Medieval Times and it is around now.

As society focuses on balancing gender roles and the equality between men and women, more and more people are saying “Chivalry is dead”. Though it may not be thriving, chivalry is still alive. Even though it is alive, it is changing with our society.

I think chivalry still exist in a small part of the population today. But I believe the modern world is not a fan of chivalry . Also in the past people were more based on man on man interaction, now there is more techology. Chivalry is a nice way to live back then and anymore we have adapted to being lazy. Most people female and male don’t even like chivalry so our world is starting to erase its existence

Have you ever heard the phrase “treat your neighbor as you would like to be treated”? Well that basically another way to define chivalry. In the Middle Ages, men followed what was known as a code of chivalry. They showed courage, honor, courtesy, justice, and readiness to help the weak. Men were courteous to women and

Do you think that The Code Of Chivalry has a value in today’s world? The Code Of Chivalry is a code of knights behavior. I don’t think that chivalry has a value in today’s world. I also think if we would use it it would just worsen our society. If you just think of the code and look at today not much matches up.

For one reason or another certain women do not picture chivalry as equal, but men

In today’s world, chivalry is like the elephant in the room that nobody wants to address. Everyone knows it there, but no one wants to do anything about it. Throughout the years, the amount of chivalry in our lives has been depleted. Our values as humans have changed drastically. Everyone is in it for themselves. It’s not how it used to be. But there’s still time to change. More now than ever, chivalry is needed.

Chivalry is not dead but has weakened. Chivalry has weakened because women now have wanted to become equal to men. Men often struggle with being a gentleman because they do not want to over step the boundaries of some women. A man feels he is suppose to open the door for the lady, but some women are offended by those actions. Personally, chivalrous behavior is something that is very much appreciated. Most men grow up having that natural instinct to being a gentleman who show respect and protection to women. Feminism is another factor on why chivalry has weakened. Some women have always wanted to be equal to men, however they still would like them to be a courteous gentleman. Overall, men should still be gentleman no matter what the situation

The question many people ask is chivalry dead? I believe it depends on where you grew up as in the household you were raised in. This goes for men and women. Many times I have had a bad experience with men not having chivalry. It is also the way someone may come off to you is the way you might perceive them.

Chivalry in Today’s Society Chivalry: a simple code that in today’s society is almost obsolete. However, society would greatly benefit from chivalrous acts. This nation has forgotten the meaning of this code that symbolizes honor, bravery, and courtesy. In this constantly changing world, people need a moral system to live by. If everyone could all agree on a certain way of treating others, the world would be a better place.

The knight, clad in silver armor and wielding a mighty sword, is a cornerstone of virtue and righteousness. Whether it be the fictitious dragon-slaying champion or the very real warrior of medieval times, all knights lived by a moral code known as chivalry. Combining the primary aspects of justice, courage, and honor, the chivalrous knight must always be ready to defend those weaker than himself. Today, chivalry has almost become synonymous with men being courteous and attentive, especially towards women. Unfortunately, chivalry of the modern day has undergone horrible perversions. Several groups have taken this upstanding system and corrupted it to suit their individual needs, often utilizing the code as a weapon against others.

Can you remember the last time someone has complemented you on your superb gallantry? It doesn’t come to a surprise if many of you haven’t heard anyone praise you for this. It may help to clarify if you replace the word gallantry with chivalry. You may hear the common complaint that, “Chivalry is dead.” This grumble, usually uttered by woman, may be quite valid. Chivalry and gallantry are in fact synonyms, both encasing the idea of how to treat woman correctly.
