The rights of a feudal lord: collecting huge taxes from the population of his country; trial of ordinary residents; declaring war on other feudal lords and concluding peace with them; ensuring the security of the entrusted fief.
Slide 5
Later, the feudal lords developed special rules of knightly honor: a knight must seek heroic deeds, fight the enemies of the Christian faith, and protect the weak and offended. The rules of honor applied only in relations between feudal lords. But even here they were constantly violated. IN everyday life, in the family, many feudal lords were rude, cruel and arrogant. They looked down on the hard-working peasants and all the “ignoble”, calling them “vile common people.” “It’s best when the peasant cries; It’s bad when he rejoices,” said the gentlemen. Even in knightly songs, the feudal lords expressed hatred of the people who fed and clothed them: Men who are evil and rude, Sharpen their teeth on the nobility, I only love the poor! I love to see the people Hungry, naked, Suffering, not warmed!.. So that the peasants do not get fat, So that they endure hardships, - It is necessary to keep them all in a black body from year to year...
(Bertrand de Born, 1195)
Tips for making a good presentation or project report
- Try to involve the audience in the story, set up interaction with the audience using leading questions, a game part, don’t be afraid to joke and smile sincerely (where appropriate).
- Try to explain the slide in your own words, add additional interesting facts, you don’t need to just read the information from the slides, the audience can read it themselves.
- There is no need to overload the slides of your project with text blocks; more illustrations and a minimum of text will better convey information and attract attention. The slide should contain only key information; the rest is best told to the audience orally.
- The text must be well readable, otherwise the audience will not be able to see the information being presented, will be greatly distracted from the story, trying to at least make out something, or will completely lose all interest. To do this, you need to choose the right font, taking into account where and how the presentation will be broadcast, and also choose the right combination of background and text.
- It is important to rehearse your report, think about how you will greet the audience, what you will say first, and how you will end the presentation. Everything comes with experience.
- Choose the right outfit, because... The speaker's clothing also plays a big role in the perception of his speech.
- Try to speak confidently, smoothly and coherently.
- Try to enjoy the performance, then you will be more relaxed and less nervous.
THE WORD “KNIGHT” ORIGINALLY MEANT “HORSEMAN.” Knights could only be people of “noble” origin, rich enough to purchase a horse and weapons - a sword, shield, armor. Knights served in the army of the king or other noble people, owners of large land holdings - dukes, counts, barons. In order to become a real warrior knight, it took a lot of time and effort. TO military service knights have been preparing since childhood. At the age of seven, boys left their parents' home and became pages (personal servants) of noble feudal lords (landowners) or the king. There they learned fencing, wrestling, horse riding, javelin throwing, singing and dancing. The ability to read and write was not considered mandatory for a knight.
WHEN THE YOUNG TURNED 15 YEARS OLD, HE ENTERED THE SERVICE OF A KNIGHT AND BECAME A Squire. His duties included caring for the knight's horses and dogs. He greeted guests and served them at table. During the campaign, the squire carried the armor (equipment) of the knight, and during the battle he had to be behind the knight in order to give him a spare weapon at the right time. And only after several years of service, squires who distinguished themselves in battle were knighted. This usually happened on a holiday, in the presence of other knights, squires and, of course, beautiful ladies.
And so that their military art would not be dulled in peacetime, the knights participated in specially organized military competitions, which were called tournaments. At the tournament, two knights rode towards each other on horseback and, striking with long spears, tried to knock the enemy out of the saddle.
Knights lived in castles. A castle is a palace and fortress of a feudal lord. Castles of Europe, Middle East, Caucasus, Central Asia were erected in well-protected places: the main tower was surrounded by ramparts, ditches, and walls. Severe, powerful castles from the 11th – 12th centuries. became more picturesque, free in layout, from the 13th – 14th centuries. turn into complex complexes of buildings, and, finally, into palace ensembles.
The castles of the nobility were not very comfortable homes. They were damp, cold, and drafty. The first castles did not have glass in the windows or running water. The premises were illuminated with torches made from tree branches or bundles of reeds. Kings and nobles built castles for themselves to protect themselves from enemies.
The main reason The feudal system itself became the basis for the construction of castles. Possessive sovereigns reigned over the lands that belonged to them and controlled the destinies of the people living on them. In an effort to increase the size of their holdings and strengthen their power, feudal lords often attacked the territory of their near or distant neighbor. And of course, the neighbors were not in debt either. That is why the gentlemen had to turn their houses into impregnable fortresses. This is how castles arose.
The double walls of this fortress were 6 meters thick, and even thicker at the corners. In the center of the castle there is a huge hall two floors high. Light enters here only through several small windows located high under the ceiling. Bird's eye view of the castle
ARCHITECTS, WHEN STARTING THE CONSTRUCTION OF CASTLES, ALWAYS, FOR MILITARY PURPOSES, INITIALLY PROVIDED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF NARROW AND SMALL WINDOWS, THROUGH SUCH WINDOWS WARRIORS COULD HIT THE ENEMY, WHILE REMAINING SAFE. THIS IS WHAT HEDDINGHAM CASTLE LOOKS LIKE TODAY.
