Knighthood: The Origins of Chivalry

Knights appeared during the early dark ages around the fall of the western half of the Roman Empire. In the 19th and 20th centuries they were romanticized a great deal, but when they first appeared they had no concept of chivalry. Here we discuss the appearance of knights and the origin of chivalry, as well as the rules of it. For this video we have a first time guest speaker (Blue Hour).

Blue Hour's background is in film and script writing, but she does conduct historical research as inspiration for writing and for creating more realistic content.
