QUE SIGNIFIE KNIGHTS EN ANGLAIS

Chevalier

Knight

Un chevalier est une personne qui a reçu un titre honoraire de chevalerie par un monarque ou un autre chef politique pour le service au Monarque ou au pays, en particulier à titre militaire. Historiquement, en Europe, la chevalerie a été conférée aux guerriers montés. Au cours du Haut Moyen Âge, la chevalerie était considérée comme une classe de noblesse inférieure. À la fin du Moyen Âge, le rang était devenu associé aux idéaux de la chevalerie, un code de conduite pour le guerrier chrétien courtois parfait. Souvent, un chevalier était un vassal qui servait de combattant à un seigneur, avec un paiement sous forme de terres. Les seigneurs faisaient confiance aux chevaliers, qui étaient habiles à la bataille à cheval. Depuis le début de la période moderne, le titre de chevalier est purement honorifique, généralement attribué par un monarque, comme dans le système des honneurs britanniques, souvent pour le service non militaire au pays. Historiquement, les idéaux de la chevalerie ont été popularisés dans la littérature médiévale, en particulier la matière de la Grande-Bretagne et de la Matière de France, la première basée sur Historia Regum Britanniae de Geoffrey de Monmouth, écrite dans les années 1130.

A knight is a person granted an honorary title of knighthood by a monarch or other political leader for service to the Monarch or country, especially in a military capacity. Historically, in Europe, knighthood has been conferred upon mounted warriors. During the High Middle Ages, knighthood was considered a class of lower nobility. By the Late Middle Ages, the rank had become associated with the ideals of chivalry, a code of conduct for the perfect courtly Christian warrior. Often, a knight was a vassal who served as a fighter for a lord, with payment in the form of land holdings. The lords trusted the knights, who were skilled in battle on horseback. Since the early modern period, the title of knight is purely honorific, usually bestowed by a monarch, as in the British honours system, often for non-military service to the country. Historically, the ideals of chivalry were popularized in medieval literature, especially the Matter of Britain and Matter of France, the former based on Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniae, written in the 1130s.
