The New York Times today has an obituary for Maurice H. Keen whose great book, Chivalry, has been produced in a delightful FS edition (it can still be acquired on the website but is not listed in the current catalogue--so I'm guessing it will soon be OOP):

Edmund Burke wrote it already more than two centuries ago: "The age[d] of chivalry is gone."
