Originally published in 1940. Chivalry denotes the ideals and practices considered suitable for a noble. The word itself is reminiscent of the aristocratic society of medieval France dominated by mounted warriors.

During the next four hundred years, these conceptions of the ideal nobleman were developed by and for the feudal ruling class.
