Le Morte D'arthur is structured to trace how communities and individuals adapt or create chivalric codes for their own purposes; in turn, codes of chivalry shape groups and their customs. Knights' loyalties are torn not just between lords and lovers but also between the different codes of chivalry and between different communities. Women, too, choose among the different roles they are asked to play as queens, counsellors, and even quasi-knights. 410 0$aStudies in Arthurian and courtly cultures. 606 $aArthurian romances$xHistory and criticism 606 $aRomances, English$xHistory and criticism 606 $aKnights and knighthood in literature 606 $aKings and rulers in literature 606 $aCommunities in literature 606 $aChivalry in literature 615 0$aArthurian romances$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aRomances, English$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aKnights and knighthood in literature. 615 0$aKings and rulers in literature. 615 0$aCommunities in literature. 615 0$aChivalry in literature. 676 $a823/.2 700 $aHodges$b Kenneth L$01508490 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784125803321 996 $aForging chivalric communities in Malory's Le morte Darthur$93739880 997 $aUNINA
