在历史长河中，每一段文明的出现、发展、衰落都是那个时代的特殊产物。中世纪时期，骑士制度成为中世纪西欧社会的标志，是那时封建制度的重要组成部分且相当长的一段时间内是西欧封建社会的主要武装力量。尽管这一制度曾一度引起广泛的争议，但它却有着丰富的内涵并在西欧文明传承中发挥着不可替代的作用。

In the long history of history, the emergence, development and decline of each civilization are the special products of that era. During the Middle Ages, knighthood became the hallmark of medieval Western European society, an important part of the feudal system at that time, and for a long time wasthe main armed force of Western European feudal society. Although this system once caused widespread controversy, it has rich connotations and plays an irreplaceable role in the inheritance of Western European civilization.
