Kenelm Henry Digby

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kenelm Henry Digby (c1800-1880) was an Anglo-Irish writer born at Clonfert in Ireland, though he certainly did not regard himself as Irish. His reputation rests chiefly on his earliest publication, The Broad-Stone of Honour, or Rules for the Gentlemen of England (1822), which contains an exhaustive survey of mediaeval customs. The work was subsequently enlarged and issued (1826-27) in four volumes entitled: Godefridus, Tancredus, Morus and Orlandus.
