KNIGHTS ERRANT

Domain	Definition
Literature	Knights Errant In France, from 768 to 987, the land was encumbered with fortified castles; in England this was not the case till the reign of Stephen. The lords of these castles used to carry off females and commit rapine, so that a class of men sprang up, at least in the pages of romance, who roamed about in full armour to protect the defenceless and aid the oppressed. " `Proxima quæque metit gladio' is the perfect account of a knight errant."- Dryden: Dedication of the Æneis. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
