Llull, Ramon. Selected works of Ramon Llull.
edited and translated by Anthony Bonner. Princeton University Press, c1985.
      Ramon Llull was a noble and a knight who enjoyed the good life and a reputation as a ladies man until he experienced a religious vision near his thirtieth year. After that he became a monk and wrote many works in Latin and his native Catalan before his death at the age of 92.
      The Book of Knighthood and Chivalry was one of the more widely read of the chivalric manuals with it being translated into most of the languages of Europe during the next 150 years. It takes its form as the story of an encounter between a young squire who gets lost while heading to court who then meets an aging knight turned hermit. Their conversation includes the older knight's image of what ideals an aspiring knight should strive to live up to and his concept of the knighting ceremony. Llull also stresses that the strength and authority of the knights must be tempered with a concern for those less able to defend themselves.

      During his career Geoffroi de Charny made himself the reputation of being one of the premier knights of France, and a staunch supporter supporter of the French monarchy. He was outspoken in favor of reforming the morality and improvement of the prowess of the chivalry of France. His three works were probably written in conjunction with the creation of the Company of the Star (of which Geoffroi was one of the premier members) by King Jean II in 1352. In his Book of Chivalry Charny attempts to resolve the practicalities of making a career of knighthood with ideals of chivalry.

Henry, duke of Lancaster. Le livre de seyntz medicines; the unpublished devotional treatise of Henry of Lancaster. text edited by E.J. Arnould. Oxford, Pub. for the Anglo-Norman text society by B. Blackwell, 1940.
      Originally written in French. This is a series of personal confessions in the form of a prayer describing the seven wounds or sores which afflict his soul. A translation to look forward too; not only did Henry concentrate on the spiritual more than the most of the other authors, but he was one of the major influences on Edward III of England who was so fascinated with the ideals of chivalry.

In the absence of an English translation one can refer to the following articles for discussions of Henry's work. (You will probably be able to get them via Interlibrary loan from a college or public library):

      As the title implies this was written by a father (in this case a widower) concerned for the welfare of his daughters. The knight takes a very moral stance and is plainly disapproving about the behavior of his peers. He warns his daughters to not be led astray by smooth-talking courtiers or to embarrass the family.

       This work by René is much more a detailed description of how to organize a tournament than a chivalric manual. However it remains pertinent to the discussion since tourneys provided a fertile training ground for the chivalry of the previous three centuries, and also as an interesting view of what this 15th Century knight believed tourneys to be like in earlier centuries.

Bonet, Honore. The Tree of Battles of Honore Bonet
(alt. spelling Bouvet); an English version with introduction G. W. Coopland, with a hitherto unpublished historical interpolation.
Cambridge : Harvard University Press, 1949.
Out of print.
       Although Honore Bonet of Provence was a clerk and not a knight this work was one of the most widely read and copied of its genre. Bonet spoke out for reform and the solving of the constant strife within Christian Europe with the knowledge of one who had seen the effects of civil war and oppressive administrations in his own country, who had first hand knowledge of the politics of the French realm, and of the papacy in Avignon, and who was also extremely well informed about Spain, Portugal, Hungary and the threat of the Turkish to the East.
       Bonet's work is organized around a series of over 100 questions. These range from defining when a war is just and when it is not, the behavior of an ideal knight and also one's conduct of in war and peace. Bonet borrowed heavily from John of Legnano's Tractatus de bello, which was written or completed about 1360 while a large army was besieging Bologna.

      Two texts which date to the early 13th Century. They are probably the oldest items that are more treatise on chivalry than story included in this bibliography.
      The Romance of the Wings is a very socially oriented work which concerns itself more with how a knight should act than with the symbolism of knighthood. It explains that prowess will only cause a knight to rise in the world if that prowess is lifted by the two wings of liberality (meaning largesse) and courtesy. Each wing is composed of seven feathers representing some facet of largesse or courtesy.
      The Ordene de Chevalerie (The Order of Knighthood) was probably written about a decade later presents the fictional story of Hue of Tabarie a crusader who has been captured by Saladin. To win his freedom Hue must tell Saladin how a knight is made and as such leads his captor through his idealized knighting ceremony. This story's version of a knighting ceremony shows up again and again in many of the subsequent manuals.

       An anonymous work which exhorts Englishmen to renew efforts to retake former English holdings upon the Continent. While not a chivalric manual per se the author does argue certain points about the rightness of this war by referring to Bonet's The Tree of Battles as an authoritative source. Though since he refers to it as being written by a dame Christine it seems likely that he was working with a copy of Christine de Pisan's The Book of Fayttes of Armes and of Chyvalrye which relied heavily upon Bonet's work.
