What is the definition of “courting” and what is the difference between courting and dating?

Personally, to me “courting” sounds like the guy is trying to seduce the girl into marrying him. Dating is something the boy and girl do together; I think that courting is something the guy does to the girl (although maybe I’m wrong about that, but I think that is how I have usually heard the term used).
