The chivalric activities of The Augustan Society, Inc., are largely conducted by the [[Chivalry Committee]]. This consists of a Chairman appointed by and serving at the pleasure of the [[President]], and such committee members as said Chairman may appoint, subject to the [[Policy on Committee Membership|policy on committee membership]].
==[[Chivalry Committee]]==
Under a chairman named by the President, members with knowledge in this field serve primarily as advisors advisers to the [[Board]]. Their particular duties include making recommendations on the recognition [[Recognition of Orders of Chivalry ]] (and similar organizations), and on recognition of individuals' membership and rank in those organizations. They also assist the [[Assistant Webmaster for ENS]] in maintainin maintaining the list of commonly used postnominals.
==[[List of Postnominals Used]]==
This list, maintained by the [[Assistant Webmasterfor ENS]] in consultation with the Chivalry Committee, [[Communications|Communications DepartmentChivalry Committee]], and others, shows postnominals that have been used by the Society at some point. They include many ranks in the Orders listed above, and many other postnominals including honorific, chivalric, academic, religious, professional, fellowship, and military honors. It is not suggested that this is a complete listing of such, only those the Society has found it has need of. Neither does inclusion in this list suggest that these postnominals or the Orders associated with them are ''presently'' recognized by the Society.
The Society (and groups closely affiliated with it) has published extensively on chivalry, including the publications:
#[[Chivalry]], thirteen issues, 1974–2001#A Bibliographic Guide: The Order of the Temple, Patricia Hartwell, 1985#A Bibliographic Guide: The Military and Hospitaller Order of St. Lazurus of Jerusalem and The Order of Sts. Maurice & Lazarus, Patricia Hartwell, 1985#[[ICI Members' Newsletter]], 32 issues, 1988–1997#Many articles in ''The [[The Augustan Omnibus]]'' and its predecessors, some of which have been gathered together by topic into [[Reprints]].
==[[Links to other web sites]]==
A list of links to a variety of other sources of information on the web is maintainedby the [[Assistant Webmaster for ENS]]. Suggestions for additional links are welcomed. Links to the official web sites of many Orders of Chivalry may also be found on the [[List of Recognized Orders]] (of Chivalry and Organizations of a Chivalric Nature).
