Autoren-Porträt von Charles Mills
Charles Mills, not to be confused with the contemporary philosopher Charles W. Mills, was an English historian and author who turned his intellectual pursuits towards the medieval period, notably the institution of chivalry. Mills is best known for his seminal two-volume work, 'The History of Chivalry: Knighthood and Its Times' (1825), which provided an exhaustive account of the ethos, practices, and societal role of knights in medieval Europe. Delving into the cultural and military facets of chivalry, Mills's scholarship offered a romanticized yet analytical view of this bygone martial and social code. His writing style seamlessly blended the rigor of historical research with the narrative flair of the period's literary works. Although the romantic lens through which Mills viewed chivalry is characteristic of his time, the historical value of his contributions cannot be understated. Mills's portrayal of chivalry still resonates in scholarly discussions and informs modern interpretations of medieval knighthood. His commitment to a holistic study of chivalry captured the imagination of his contemporaries and continues to serve as a reference point for enthusiasts of medieval history.
