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 translation of a 14th-century French manuscript that is considered to be one of the most important works of medieval literature. The book is a guide to chivalry and knighthood, and it is written in the form of a letter from the goddess Othea to the Trojan prince Hector. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the virtues of a knight, the importance of education, the role of women in society, and the importance of honor and loyalty. The book is a fascinating insight into medieval culture and is still relevant today as a guide to living a virtuous life.Edited From A Manuscript In The Library Of The Marquis Of Bath By George F.
