More About the Image: This image of Eleanor of Aquitaine was taken from the carving on her tomb at Fontevrault Abbey in Anjou, France.

Background The code of chivalry developed in the eleventh and twelfth centuries as an idealized set of rules and behaviors that knights were called on to follow in order to become perfect heroic soldiers.

These rules were based on values and ideas from religion, feudalism, courtly life, and the military.

As farming technology improved, fewer farmers were needed to produce enough food for the population, thus freeing some workers from their dependence on the land.

These workers could then spend their time on nonagricultural pursuits, creating greater diversity in the economic and cultural sectors of society.

As historians know, some ideas have the potential to influence and even change an era. One such idea was the concept of chivalry in the Middle Ages, which changed and influenced the European concept of civilized behavior.

Directions: The two illuminated manuscript paintings show different aspects of chivalry in the Middle Ages. Look closely at both, analyze them, and answer the questions that follow.

At the age of 25, she married the future King Louis VII of France and accompanied him during the Second Crusade of 1147-1149.

The rules of chivalry varied in different parts of Europe and evolved over time, but at its core chivalry was defined by such Christian and courtly virtues as courtesy, fairness, piety, and devotion to an honorable ideal.

Chivalry was always more of an ideal to which knights could aspire than a consistent behavioral pattern.

Economics in Medieval Europe. The huge population boom that occurred in the High Middle Ages (1000 to 1300) was partly the result of increased food production, which in itself was the result of improved farming technology and methods.

Manorialism might have continued as a way of life, but the revival of trade and the associated growth of towns and cities necessitated and precipitated the development of a different type of economic system.

This newfound freedom was one of the contributing factors to the rebirth of trade in medieval Europe.

Seeking means of livelihood other than farming, many people settled in the cities, which had originally been established as local market centers but quickly became hubs for various types of artisans and merchants.
