Answer:

The tradition of courtly love means A) the tradition of love and courtship followed by medieval nobles.

Step-by-step explanation:

In medieval times, courtly love -or refined love- was a literary conception of love that consisted of a romantic rather than physical relationship between unmarried people. This relationship was based on courtship, flirting, dancing, or any other efforts of the knights and noble young men to serve ladies and curry favor from them at court. The original French term is amour courtois.

Courtly love was a medieval concept of love which emphasized nobility and chivalry. Although not limited to this class, it began as a concept among knights and the land-owning class, and involved men going to great lengths to charm and earn the favor of a deserving woman.
