Innumerable stories proclaim how knights, bold and fearless, have sought renown. The Knight Emerges begins The Chronicles of the Emerald Knight series and describes how a once insufferable youth was forced to attend a knightly academy and through training, many experiences, and two quests--another's and his own--became a knight. And, through this process, grew to be a formidable warrior and much improved individual. Little does the youth ever realize that such had been his destiny for his deity had foreordained him to be His weapon to fight the evil beings soon to rear their ugly heads on his world! Part 3: the Knight Candidate describes Malakiah's quest which sends him and his quest companion, Kush, to Rama, a region in the harsh desert land of Verritan. There, he assists Santos to rescue his sister, her companion, and Santos' father from a cruel warlord.After many misadventures, Malakiah frees the captives. Then he must escape with them across the vast desert pursued by the warlord and his warriors--fearful until they have eluded the fiend's grasp. Eventually, he returns to Suena and learns, to his astonishment, what amazing benefits his quest has brought about. Consequently, he is awarded his knighthood and returns home. The story differs from many other fantasies as it focuses not entirely on Malakiah, the hero, endlessly battling foes. In some areas of the book, he is not even mentioned. Santos and Vesta, the nephew and niece of the Duke of Suena, take center stage on many occasions. Malakiah's roommates, the duke, and others dominate still other story aspects.Attention is also given to showing how Malakiah changes. In the beginning, he had airs of entitlement. By the end of the book he has cast aside such beliefs. Malakiah is further shown to fail and to anguish when he experiences losses and hardships--especially when his best friend dies. Eventually Malakiah must conclude, when advised by another friend, that such difficulties were necessary to forge him into the warrior which his deity requires.Malakiah's tale also has some unique features. One chapter suggests that Malakiah's simpler world might shortly have some very modern inventions! And, curiously, even though Malakiah's world is not our own, the accomplishments of some of its figures parallel those in ours. Discerning readers will surely recognize these individuals for whom they represent! And, without a doubt, enjoy doing so!

And, through this process, grew to be a formidable warrior and much improved individual. Little does the youth ever realize that such had been his destiny for his deity had foreordained him to be His weapon to fight the evil beings soon to rear their ugly heads on his world! Part 1: the Cadet of The Knight Emerges describes how Malakiah Defakiran, eldest son of the Duke of the Emerald Valley, was escorted unwillingly to the city of Suena to attend the Academy of the Perencian Order of Knights by his father's decree. He is placed under the sponsorship of the Duke of Suena, Sir Heddrick, also the Grandmaster of the Perencian Order. Malakiah, hating academy life and its regulations, initially considers fleeing, but at the last minute abandons the idea. After such, he resigns himself to finish his training quickly so that he may return to his home and former life. The first part concludes with his passing the Academy's Qualification Examination and becoming a squire. Part 2: the Squire takes place largely within the city of Suena and describes Malakiah's next three years taking courses and learning leadership skills. Midway through this time, as a quest companion, he accompanies Santos, his friend and a knight candidate, on Santos' quest to a far-distant land of Nyxein. The second part ends with Malakiah completing his squire training and now anticipating his own quest. Part 3: the Knight Candidate describes Malakiah's quest which sends him and his quest companion, Kush, to Rama, a region in the harsh desert land of Verritan. There, he assists Santos to rescue his sister, her companion, and Santos' father from a cruel warlord. After many misadventures, Malakiah frees the captives.

This book offers an integrated interpretative analysis of the major thematic aspects of the English fourteenth-century romance Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. The chief aim of author Piotr Sadowski is to look at the contents of the narrative in their entirety and to take full advantage of the poem's exceptional and widely praised harmony of structure and design. Within that design, Sadowski focuses on the poem's presentation of the main protagonist and his adventures, seen first of all as a generalized metaphor of the human life understood as a spiritual quest, and, in a more historical sense, as an expression and critique of certain ideals, values, and anxieties that characterized the late medieval institutions of the court, chivalry, and the Church. Sadowski built the interpretive framework of Sir Gawain from an eclectic theoretical base that he believes is most valuable and useful in approaching medieval literature. The main focus of the study remains the literary text itself, created by an author who communicates his view of the world through the poem.

An up-close introduction to the most admired warriors in history "They mounted their horses, grasped the lances made of fine Bordeaux Steel, closed the visors of their helmets, and made their way to their stations for the first course. Spurring their horses on, they advanced toward each other at full gallop, lowering their lances as they approached. The tip of Clifford's lance caught Boucmel high on his breastplate and was deflected off . . . directly into the young squire's mail hood, piercing his neck clean through." This tragic account of an ambitious young Frenchman's senseless death during a "friendly" joust with an English knight underscores the ever-present danger that stalked the flower of European youth in the Middle Ages. In The Knight, you'll meet John Boucmel, Nicholas Clifford, and scores of other warriors who risked their lives to fill the medieval lists and battlefields in a relentless quest for fame, glory, and victory. This vivid, fast-paced narrative whisks you from the blood-soaked fields of Normandy in the Hundred Years' War to the battered walls of Jerusalem in the first Crusade, from a sumptuous feast in an English castle to the pomp and pageantry of a spectacular thirty-day jousting tournament. You'll discover how knights were trained; how they paid for their expensive weapons, armor, and horses; and how the solemn vows they took influenced their behavior both on and off the battlefield. Discover the truth behind the countless legends of the Age of Chivalry in The Knight.
