Troubadour
A troubadour (, ; oc, trobador ) was a composer and performer of Old Occitan lyric poetry during the High Middle Ages (1100–1350). Since the word ''troubadour'' is etymologically masculine, a female troubadour is usually called a ''trobairitz''. The troubadour school or tradition began in the late 11th century in Occitania, but it subsequently spread to the Italian and Iberian Peninsulas. Under the influence of the troubadours, related movements sprang up throughout Europe: the Minnesang in Germany, ''trovadorismo'' in Galicia and Portugal, and that of the trouvères in northern France. Dante Alighieri in his ''De vulgari eloquentia'' defined the troubadour lyric as ''fictio rethorica musicaque poita'': rhetorical, musical, and poetical fiction. After the "classical" period around the turn of the 13th century and a mid-century resurgence, the art of the troubadours declined in the 14th century and around the time of the Black Death (1348) it died out. The texts of troubadou ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Albertet Cailla
Albertet Cailla was an Albigeois jongleur and troubadour. According to his ''vida'' he was "of slight worth" but beloved by his neighbours and the local women. His ''vida'' says that he composed one good ''canso'' and several ''sirventes'', but only one ''partimen'' survives. It was said he never left the Albigeois. There is a ''tenso'' on the merits of old and young women which is ascribed to Albertet in at least two chansonnier A chansonnier ( ca, cançoner, oc, cançonièr, Galician and pt, cancioneiro, it, canzoniere or ''canzoniéro'', es, cancionero) is a manuscript or printed book which contains a collection of chansons, or polyphonic and monophonic settings o ...s, manuscripts ''I'' and ''K''.

Arnaut Catalan ( fl. 1219–1253) was a troubadour active in the Languedoc, Catalonia Catalonia (; ca, Catalunya ; Aranese Occitan: ''Catalonha'' ; es, Cataluña ) is an autonomous community of Spain, designated as a ''nationality'' by its Statute of Autonomy. Most of the territory (except the Val d'Aran) lies on the north ..., and Castile (historical region), Castile. He left behind five ''Canso (song), cansos'', three ''tensos'', and one religious song. Arnaut's origins are disputed. Most Catalan people, Catalan scholars, such as Milà and Fontanals, believe him to be a Catalan, hence his nickname. Others, such as Chabaneau, assign him to a prominent family from Toulouse named "Catalan". If the latter is correct he is probably the same as the Dominican Order, Dominican Inquisitor who persecuted Cathars with such force that he was almost killed by a mob in Albi in 1234.

Amanieu De Sescars
Amanieu de Sescars or Amanieu des Escàs ( fl. 1278–1295) was a Catalan, possibly Gascon, troubadour of the late 13th century. Famous for his love songs in his own day, his contemporaries gave him the nickname ''dieu d'amor'' (god of love). He wrote two ''ensenhamens'' (didactic poems) and two '' saluts d'amor'' (love letters) that survive. The uncertainty about his origins stems from the fact that his poems refer extensively to Catalan people and places, but a singer of the same name is found signing a Gascon document of 1253. Whether the signatory of 1253 and the troubadour are one and the same is left open to doubt, but it is possible that Amanieu was a Catalan who was either born in or lived in Gascony, which was not uncommon at the time. His earliest datable work is also his shortest, the ''salut'' "A vos, que ieu am deszamatz", which was written 24 August 1278. His first ''ensenhamen'' was the "Ensenhamen del scudier" about a squire (''scudier'') who observes his noble ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Amanieu De La Broqueira
Amanieu de la Broqueira was a Gascon troubadour. His name suggests he was from Labroquère, near Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges. He wrote two ''cansos'' that have been preserved in the 14th-century troubadour chansonnier E (BN f.f. 1749): *''Mentre que·l talans mi cocha'' While the desire is pressing me"( 21,1) *''Quan reverdejon li conderc'' When the countryside turns green again"( 21,2) Along with the works of Guilhem d'Anduza and Guilhem Raimon de Gironella, Amanieu's songs are found only in chansonnier E, which has a high proportion of Gascon, Catalan and Langedocien composers. For reasons unknown, the chansonnier gives Amanieu's name as Ameus. In ''Quan reverdejon li conderc'', Amanieu gives his own name as Amaneus Aureilla, which is perhaps a family name or else indicates that he came from Aureilhan. Towards the end of the song, Amanieu laments that he did not send it by one of his preferred ''jongleurs'', Porta-joia d'Engolmes from the Angoumois and Paire de Bodeles from ...

Almucs De Castelnau
Almucs de Castelnau or Castelnou (c. 1140 – pre-1184) was a trobairitz (a female troubadour) from a town near Avignon in Provence. Her name is also spelled ''Almuc'', ''Amucs'', ''Almois'', ''Almurs'', or ''Almirs''. Almucs' only surviving work is a poetic exchange with Iseut de Capio, another trobairitz. The song is presented in the chansonniers intermixed with a long ''razo''. It tells how Iseut begged Almucs de Castelnau to pardon Gigo (Gui), lord of Tournon (Tornon) in the Vivarais, Iseut's knight, who had committed "a great fault" against Almucs. Gigo, however, neither repented nor sought forgiveness, and so Almucs responded to Iseut in a ''cobla'' of her own. This exchange has been dated to around 1190. Almucs is also mentioned (''...dompna nal murs...'') in the poem ''Ia de chan'' by fellow trobairitz Castelloza. Identification Almodis de Caseneuve Almucs may be identified with a certain Almodis of Caseneuve, which is not far from Avignon and near Les Chapelins, possibl ...

Alegret
Alegret was a Gascony, Gascon troubadour, one of the earliest Lyric poetry, lyric Satire, satirists in the Occitan language, Occitan tongue, and a contemporary of Marcabru (fl. c. 1145).Léglu, 48. One ''sirventes'' and one ''Canso (song), canso'' survive of his poems. Nonetheless, his reputation was high enough that he found his way into the poetry of Bernart de Ventadorn and Raimbaut d'Aurenga.Gaunt and Kay, 279. The work of Alegret is also intertextually and stylistically related to that of Peire d'Alvernhe. Alegret was also one of the first troubadours to employ the feudal metaphor to describe courtly love. He describes his relationship to his ''domna'' (lady) as that of vassalage by calling himself her ''endomenjatz'' (basically, vassal or liegeman).Paterson, 31. Pelligrini saw this passage as imitating Bernart de Ventadorn, considered the master of this metaphor: Marcabru parodied the structure of Alegret's ''Ara pareisson li'aubre sec'' in his own poem ''Bel m'es quan la rana ...
