Bertran Carbonel
Bertran Carbonel ( fl. 1252–1265) was a Provençal troubadour from Marseille. He is a polarising figure among scholars and his reputation varies between authorities. Eighteen of his lyric works survive, as well as seventy-two (Gaunt and Kay) or ninety-four (Riquer) single '' coblas triadas esparsas'' on "edifying" themes. He was patronised at the court of Hugh IV and Henry II of Rodez. There were many individuals of Bertran's name in Marseille in his time, so identifying the troubadour among them has been impossible. Bertran's poetry is among the earliest Occitan literature to be written ''as literature'', or, in contemporary Latin, ''juxta propria principia''. He was also educated, as his references to Ovid, Terence, and other Classical figures reveals. Bertran was a devotee of the minor(-sounding) style of Peire Cardenal, whom he imitated in tone. His moralising is, however, as advice, generally mediocre and unexciting. His ''cansos''—for he wrote mostly those and ...

Bertran D'Alamanon
Bertran d'Alamanon, also spelled de Lamanon or d'Alamano ( fl. 1229–1266), was a Provençal knight and troubadour, and an official, diplomat, and ambassador of the court of the Count of Provence. Twenty-two of his works survive, mainly provocative ''tensos'' and ''sirventes'', many dealing with Crusading themes. Life Bertran's ''vida'' is one of the shortest of the troubadours' at only twenty-seven words in one manuscript: Among the reliable points in this short biography is that he was from Lamanon, in modern Eyguières. He is described as the son of a lord of Brugières, which could refer to localities in Castres, Uzès, or Toulouse. Bertran appears with some frequency in documents of the period, however, so his scant ''vida'' is not a major handicap. He is first attested serving Raymond Berengar IV of Provence in 1235. He continued to serve his successor, Charles I, until at least 1260, when he last appears in documents. He is sometimes assumed to have accompanied Charles ...

Bertran De Born
Bertran de Born (; 1140s – by 1215) was a baron from the Limousin in France, and one of the major Occitan troubadours of the 12th-13th century. He composed love songs (cansos) but was better known for his political songs (sirventes). He was involved in revolts against Richard I and then Phillip II. He married twice and had five children. In his final years, he became a monk. Early life Bertran de Born was the eldest son of Bertran de Born, lord of Hautefort (Occitan: ''Autafòrt''), and his wife Ermengardis. He had two younger brothers, Constantine and Itier. His father died in 1178, and Bertran succeeded him as lord of Hautefort. By this time, he was already married to his first wife, Raimonda, and had two sons. Hautefort lies at the border between the Limousin and Périgord. As a result, Bertran became involved in the conflicts of the sons of Henry II Plantagenet. He was also fighting for control of Hautefort. According to the feudal custom of his region, he was not t ...

Bertran De Born Lo Filhs
Bertran de Born (; 1179 – 1233), called lo Filhs (, "the Son"), was a Limousin knight and troubadour. He wrote two ''sirventes'' and has three other works attributed to him. He participated in the wars of John Lackland in France. He was a son of the famous troubadour Bertran de Born and his first wife, Raimonda, born shortly after their marriage in 1179. His full brother was Itier and his half brothers were Bertran and Constantin, sons of his father's second marriage, to Felipa, in 1192. Since the younger Bertran would have only been fourteen at the time of the troubadour's activity, the ''filhs'' of the '' chansonniers'' must be the eldest son. Bertran and his brother Itier were dubbed sometime before 1192. The ''sirventes'' "Quan voi lo temps renovelar", written in 1206 in the style of his father, is attributed to "Bertran de Born" in the ''chansonniers,'' but since the elder Bertran had retired to the monastery of Dalon in 1197, this reference must be to his son. The ''sir ...

Bertran De Gourdon
Bertran de Gourdon or Bertram de Gordon ( fl. 1209–1231) was the lord of Gourdon, a knight and troubadour. Initially a partisan of Raymond VI of Toulouse in the war between the Albigensian Crusade and the baronage of Languedoc, Bertran switched sides and did homage for his lands to Philip II of France in December 1211. He alludes to this action in a ''cobla'' of 1212, a response to the criticism of a certain Mahieu or Matheus (not Mathieu de Caerci) for "selling out" to the French. Bertran surrendered promptly to the Crusaders under Simon de Montfort in May 1218 and did homage to Simon for his lands. Bertran wrote a comic ''tenso A ''tenso'' (; french: tençon) is a style of troubadour song. It takes the form of a debate in which each voice defends a position; common topics relate to love or ethics. Usually, the tenso is written by two different poets, but several examples ...'', that is poetical debate, with Peire Raimon de Tolosa, now known by the incipit ''Totz tos ...

Bertran Del Pojet
Bertran del Pojet ( fl. 1222) was a Provençal castellan and troubadour of the latter half of the thirteenth century, a period of Angevin rule in Provence and Italy. He was born in Puget, near Nice, and lived most of his life in Teunes, the region around Toulon.Egan, 22–23. He first appears in documents in September 1222. His '' vida'' records that he was a valiant and generous knight and a skilled soldier. His ''cansos'' and ''sirventes'' were well-esteemed. Only two works of his survive, a ''sirventes'' and a ''tenso''. Nonetheless, they were well-known.Vitaglione, 9. Bertran's ''tenso'' with an anonymous trobairitz, "Bona dompna, d'una re quieus deman", has been translated into English by Frank Chambers and Carol Jane Nappholz. Both his poems were first edited and published (in Italian Italian(s) may refer to: * Anything of, from, or related to the people of Italy over the centuries ** Italians, an ethnic group or simply a citizen of the Italian Republic or Italian Ki ...

Floruit
''Floruit'' (; abbreviated fl. or occasionally flor.; from Latin for "they flourished") denotes a date or period during which a person was known to have been alive or active. In English, the unabbreviated word may also be used as a noun indicating the time when someone flourished. Etymology and use la, flōruit is the third-person singular perfect active indicative of the Latin verb ', ' "to bloom, flower, or flourish", from the noun ', ', "flower". Broadly, the term is employed in reference to the peak of activity for a person or movement. More specifically, it often is used in genealogy and historical writing when a person's birth or death dates are unknown, but some other evidence exists that indicates when they were alive. For example, if there are wills attested by John Jones in 1204, and 1229, and a record of his marriage in 1197, a record concerning him might be written as "John Jones (fl. 1197–1229)". The term is often used in art history when dating the career ...

Bertran Folcon D'Avignon
Bertran Folcon d'Avignon or Bertran Folco d'Avinhon ( fl. 1202–1233) was a Provençal nobleman and troubadour from Avignon. He was a faithful partisan of Raymond VI and Raymond VII of Toulouse in Provence, and participated in the wars against the Albigensian Crusade. He was inside the city during the siege of Beaucaire in 1216. In 1226 Raymond VII appointed him bailiff of Avignon. Of Bertran's poetic works are conserved only two ''coblas'' written in response to Gui de Cavalhon. This exchange between Bertran and Gui is of some historical interest. Raymond VII had moved an army against Castelnou d'Arry early in 1220 but was forced to lift his siege to deal with an offensive of Amaury de Montfort. He returned to besiege the place in July and brought in Gui to oversee the circumvallation. In the third month of the siege, October–November, Gui decided to request the assistance of Bertran in a poem, with the intention of hurrying the town's surrender. Gui evidently kne ...
