《西方决斗史》 / The History of Duelling
《西方决斗史》 is the book frame used by 78.西方决斗史:出剑吧!为了荣誉! to discuss Western dueling. The episode presents it as a nineteenth-century account by John Gideon Millingen / 约翰·基甸·米林根, useful for stories, rules, and period attitudes, but not treated as a fully neutral modern academic history.
The source uses the book to separate judicial duel, chivalric tournament culture, and honor duel culture. Its most reusable contribution is the tension between denunciation and fascination: Millingen condemns dueling as bloody and absurd, while still preserving the honor language that made duelists admire courage, procedure, and personal reputation.
