Description

De Ridderromantiek der Franse en Duitse Middeleeuwen door Vald. Vedel is een cultuurhistorische studie geschreven in de vroege 20e eeuw. Het boek onderzoekt de ridderromantiek en haar invloed op de ontwikkeling van de moderne literatuur en maatschappij, met een focus op de 12de en 13de eeuwse aristocratische en romantische culturen van Frankrijk en Duitsland. Vedel delves into how these medieval traditions shaped contemporary notions of chivalry and societal roles. The opening of the text sets the stage by discussing the historical context of the aristocracy during the 11th century in France and Germany, highlighting the chaos and anarchy among the nobility. Vedel references various chroniclers who recorded the violent and reckless behavior of the nobility, establishing a contrast between their brutality and the idealized heroism found in heroic epics. He introduces the notion that amidst this disorder, the concepts and narratives surrounding knighthood and heroism developed, eventually influencing both literature and modern societal structures, indicating a deeper connection between historical events and their narrative representations.
