Abstract
Abstract:This article argues that the concept of chivalric adventure developed in opposition to rulers' attempts to monopolize violence. Adventuring protagonists frequently defeat opponents who accuse them of breaking laws limiting feuding. The defeat of these opponents represents a defeat of these new laws and an assertion of noble privilege. [JSM]
