II. THE BUKE OF THE ORDER OF KNYGHTHOOD.
Although subjoined to "The Buke of Batailles," there is no evidence to show that it was written by the same Author. The original Work, entitled "Le Livre de l'Ordre de Chevalerie," is anonymous. A copy of it is contained in a magnificent volume, written upon vellum, and illuminated for Henry VII. of England, which forms part of the Royal collection of Manuscripts in the British Museum (MSS. Bibl. Reg. 14 E. II. Art. 5). The Work also exists in a printed form, although now of great rarity. "L'Ordre de Chevalerie, auquel est contenue la maniere comment en doit, faire les Chevaliers, et de l'honneur qui à eux appartient, et de la dignité d'iceulx; compose par ung Chevalier, lequel en sa veillesse fut Hermite." Lyon, Vincent de Portunaris de Trine, 1510, in folio,. . . Read More

Lo leí en catalán como parte de un trabajo que un antiguo profesor me pidió que hiciera para él. Tenía que comprobar y comentar su traducción del original al inglés. El libro es como todos los de Llull, repetitivo hasta la saciedad. Así que tampoco se pierde uno nada, salvo que sea un apasionado de
«Caballero sin caridad no puede ser sin crueldad y mala voluntad, y como crueldad y mala voluntad no se convienen con el oficio de caballería, por eso caridad conviene a caballero. Pues si el caballero no tiene caridad para con Dios y para con su prójimo, ¿cómo amará a Dios, y cómo tendrá piedad de
An easy and quick read. I found this work of interest and an exciting window into the past's long-missed days. I found this book's contents helpful and inspiring. Overall, this work is also a good resource for the researcher, enthusiast, and anyone interested in the times and lives of those from thi
Leí una adaptación al español moderno y me pareció una hermosa lectura. Por cómo está escrita por su noble contenido es una delicia medieval.
El Libro de la orden de caballería (escrito en catalán), forma parte de una serie de textos escrita por Ramón Llull, los cuales tenían como función enseñar, construir y dejar por escrito una serie de preceptos de fe de la cristiandad. En este libro, Llull presenta a la caballería no sólo como un gru
Well, I am glad I've finally read Lull, but I have a few major issues with this, well, issue.
1. The font choice is too decorative, "Calligraphic" and hard to read, especially their heading font.
2. Instead of translating the French, this is a "translation" of William Caxton's 15th century English tra
