요약This dissertation is a contribution to the study of late medieval English and French martial aristocratic culture. It examines the relationship between knights, their material world, and their notions of masculinity. To do so, it traces the form and function of two major categories of chivalric objects: plate armor and noble animals. In texts and images, these were the things by means of which members of the arms-bearing elite reified their homosocial bonds: to be a man in this world was instinctively to know how to act in accordance with the meanings of one's equipment and animals. This dissertation utilizes chronicles, chivalric biographies, funerary documents, illuminated manuscripts, tomb effigies, and surviving examples of armor, among other texts and objects, to bridge the divides between technical studies, military history, and gender history. Ultimately, it argues that the struggle of aristocratic self-fashioning, the agon of becoming a man, stabilized chivalric culture during the tumult of the Hundred Years War. The attitudes toward, and functions of, armor and animals in a martial context facilitated patterns in masculine expression that tended to transcend social and military disruptions. Chapter One serves as a foundation for the rest of the dissertation: it establishes the social and military roles of knights, illustrates the kind of armor they wore, and examines how elite animals were bred and used. Chapter Two analyzes how knights asserted their masculinity in battle, and how narratives of battle reveal chivalric notions of "victory" and "defeat" centered on individual deeds and remembrance. Chapter Three examines the role of armor and animals in spectacles of violence, and how knights manipulated the gaze of their peers in duels, jousts, and hunts. Finally, Chapter Four argues that armor and animals, as gifts, forged homosocial bonds between fighting men and facilitated transformations in the knightly life cycle. Taken together, these episodes and artifacts illustrate how and why armor and animals enabled masculine self-fashioning; from a knight's childhood to senescence they shaped his body, defended him in battle, exhibited him in spectacles, and accompanied him in death.
