Chivalry and Romantic
Ideals
(Middle Ages, 1100-1500)
Many women long for a chivalrous type of guy who will open doors, pull
out chairs, and let her order first, much like the knights and troubadours
(traveling poets and musicians) of medieval times. These men knew their lady’s
wants and desires always came first and foremost in love; winning her heart was
their ultimate goal. Wealthy knights won a woman’s hand through brave deeds,
while the poets won them over through their use of words and songs. These
ideas were inspired by “courtly love,” which was a highly idealized and
extravagant forbidden affair (mostly among the noble class) whose core beliefs
were the superiority of the lady, the instability of desire, and the ennobling
power of love.
“When one is in love, one has
the tendency to be biased.”
