Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the yearlong ordeal of Suero de Quiñones, a noble Castilian knight, as he defends his claim to the Fallo Honroso, a passage of arms held on the banks of the Orbiga river in 1434. Suero, a paragon of chivalry, stood guard with nine companions for thirty days, vowing to break three hundred lances with any knight who crossed their path. The text, based on the account of the king's notary present at the time, vividly recreates the jousts, describing each encounter in great detail. Through these duels, the author explores the nature of honor, valor, and the chivalric code of the era. This fascinating account illuminates the customs and ideals of the nobility in 15th-century Spain.
