dc.description.abstract | While it may sound quite bizarre by modern-day logic to visualise a Catholic monk dressed in full armour, wielding a sword or a mace, in the fray of battle, fighting ferociously to the end; this was no extraordinary occurrence in the life of medieval society. Indeed it was quite a common concept for persons of noble blood to create monastic orders whose raison d'etre was to pray, but no less, to fight, in defence of their religious convictions. | en_GB |
