How would you describe the French knight’s view of life and death?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

In France, Chilvary had the strongest tradition in all of Medieval Europe, and French Knights were particularly serious about their codes.

Explanation:

For them, life was about serving their lord, their manor, and fighting with honor in battle. They also had a romantic view about women, they saw them as "damsels in distress" that needed to be protected and were to be adored.

For them, death was a part of life as long as it came in a desired manner: ideally in battle, against a strong opponent, after giving it all, or of old age. Knights despised deaths that came from sudden events like an arrow shot from afar, or an infectious disease.
