For Digby, chivalry is not merely a medieval code combat, but \"that general spirit which disposes men to heroic and generous actions”. This volume extracts the essential maxims from Digby’s original multi-volume work, first published in 1822, presenting them as a guide to the beautiful and sublime in the moral world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDeeply rooted in Catholic tradition, the work is dedicated to St. Philomena and bears the Church’s imprimatur. As noted in the foreword by Robert Kane, S.J., and the introduction by Father Dillon, Digby’s writings were born from his remarkable conversion to Catholicism and his passionate embrace of the Faith’s cultural heritage. The book seeks to rescue the memory of a glorious Christian past, offering its maxims to cultivate honor and virtue in an age marked by “sordid, thoughtless and selfish” values. It presents chivalry not as a historical curiosity, but as a living ideal inspiring men to personal honor and devotion to truth, beauty, and goodness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e164 pages.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthor: Henry Digby\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYear: 1925\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Preserving Christian Publications","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47909409128674,"sku":null,"price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47909409161442,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"eBook (.epub file)","offer_id":47909409194210,"sku":null,"price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/8590\/5634\/files\/MaximsofChristianChivalry.png?v=1781897036","url":"https:\/\/pcpbooks.org\/products\/maxims-of-christian-chivalry","provider":"Preserving Christian Publications","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
