The Epistle of Othea to Hector: Or The Book of Knighthood is a book written by Christine de Pisan in 1904. The book is a fictional letter written by the goddess Othea to the Trojan prince Hector, providing him with guidance on how to become a virtuous knight. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the virtues of a knight, the second part discussing the importance of education and learning, and the third part discussing the role of women in society. The book was written during a time when chivalry was highly valued, and it provides insight into the expectations placed on knights during that time period. The Epistle of Othea to Hector: Or The Book of Knighthood is a valuable historical and literary work that provides readers with a glimpse into the ideals and values of medieval society.Edited From A Manuscript In The Library Of The Marquis Of Bath By George F.
