Essay from the year 2018 in the subject History Europe - Other Countries - Middle Ages, Early Modern Age, grade: 1,7, University of Glasgow (Department of History), course: Chivalry and Warfare in Late Medieval Europe, 1300 to 1500, language: English, abstract: The paper answers the question how the idea and the concept of the Crusade in the late Middle Ages of the 14th and 15th centuries played an integral role in the idea, or rather in many different ideas, of chivalry in Europe, it is necessary to first define explanatory approaches. First, the explanations as well as conclusions in this essay are based on this understanding of the concept of crusading, and what ideas and intentions were used to legitimize and justify it in general. Therefore, the general concept of chivalry in late medieval Europe will be discussed, with an overview of what has been understood in the past, and what we now understand today. Finally, these analyses will be brought together to identify any socio-cultural and conceptual overlaps in the duration of the Middle Ages. Thus, an interpretative sense for the complex topic of chivalric culture and the idea of crusading, or the scientific-academic problematization of their context should be formulated.
