[...]The result is a refreshing and truly interdisciplinary study,” John Haines, Plainsong and Medieval Music 16 (April 2007): 88. o “[T]he book makes a major contribution to the study of medieval French literature,” Maureen Boulton, The French Review 81 (May 2008): 1266. o “[a] valuable achievement as an inroad into an important but overlooked strand of thirteenth- century artistic culture,” David Maw, Medium Aevum, LXXVI (Fall/Winter 2007): 335.

With this terrific edition, one made possible only by recent technology, the poem might soon take its proper ‘place in the canon of the great works of the Middle Ages’ (3)” Jenny Adams, Speculum 90 (2015): 258–9. o “The first volume of a much-needed complete edition of Les Eschéz d’Amours, this constitutes a marriage of deep, careful scholarship and cutting edge digital D.

Suffolk, UK: Boydell and Brewer, March 2016. • Excerpts from reviews: o “Medievalists and readers generally should be grateful to the editors of this volume for assembling such a rich groups of essays dedicated to—in the words of Elizabeth Robertson—“this groundbreaking leader in feminist thinking” (246). Not only do the contributions attest the originality and breadth of E. Jane Burns’ oeuvre, but they also demonstrate the continuing vigor of feminist theory and critical study tout court,” Stephen Nichols, H-France Review 17 (2017), 1-6. o “By every measure, E. Jane Burns is a founding mother of medieval feminist scholarship. [...]She richly deserves a high-quality Festschrift, and I am happy to say that she has received one,” Felice Lifshitz, Medieval Feminist Forum 52.1 (2016): 104-106. o “As testimony to the powerful influence brought to the profession by Burns, examples of inspiration and influence appear throughout, including several by notable French medievalist feminists. Each essay reflects only a limited aspect of Burns's wide-ranging research interests over her long, evolving career,” Jane Chance, The Medieval Review, https://scholarworks.iu.edu/journals/index.php/tmr/article/view/22962/28831 ---- and Laurie Shepard, eds. Shaping Courtliness in Medieval France. Gallica 28. Suffolk, UK: Boydell and Brewer, 2013. • Excerpts from reviews: o “In her work, Bruckner has tended to privilege an open hermeneutics over a closed one, the play of multiple perspectives over the push for a final verdict. The authors of this volume do well to follow in her footsteps as they explore as elusive a concept as cortoisie/cortesia,” Huw Grange, Medium Aevum 83 (2014): 183. o “It will prove invaluable to any reader interested in the courtly literature of medieval France,” William Paden, The Medieval Review, (http://www.hti.umich.edu/t/tmr/) o “[T]he eighteen essays within contain a substantial quantity of rigorous and exciting work, with considerable appeal for readers who may have no personal connection with their dedicatee,” Alex Stuart, French Studies (2014): 92-93. o “In an era when academic presses insist on disguising Festschriften (if they publish them at all) as anything but what they are, D. S. Brewer should be applauded for honoring the genre with so robust an example. Indeed, the volume demonstrates how coherent the breed can be when orchestrated effectively,” Stephen G. Nichols, H-France Reviews, 2014. o “Ce volume de Mélanges offre un panorama assez large de l’étude de la courtoisie – toute littéraire – au Moyen Âge et est un hommage justifié à l’enseignante et au chercheur qu’est Matilda Tomaryn Bruckner,” Jacques Paviot, Francia-Recensio 2015/2. ----, ed.

Chess in the Middle Ages and early Modern Age: A Fundamental Thought Paradigm of the Premodern World, published in the prestigious series D. E.

  • 1 the Middle Ages
    THE MIDDLE AGES 1 1 The Middle Ages Introduction The Middle Ages lasted a thousand years, from the break-up of the Roman Empire in the fifth century to the end of the fifteenth, when there was an awareness that a ‘dark time’ (Rabelais dismissively called it ‘gothic’) separated the present from the classical world. During this medium aevum or ‘Middle Age’, situated between classical antiquity and modern times, the centre of the world moved north as the civil- ization of the Mediterranean joined forces with the vigorous culture of temperate Europe. Rather than an Age, however, it is more appropriate to speak of Ages, for surges of decay and renewal over ten centuries redrew the political, social and cultural map of Europe, by war, marriage and treaty. By the sixth century, Christianity was replacing older gods and the organized fabric of the Roman Empire had been eroded and trading patterns disrupted. Although the Church kept administrative structures and learning alive, barbarian encroachments from the north and Saracen invasions from the south posed a continuing threat. The work of undoing the fragmentation of Rome’s imperial domain was undertaken by Charlemagne (742–814), who created a Holy Roman Empire, and subsequently by his successors over many centuries who, in bursts of military and administrative activity, bought, earned or coerced the loyalty of the rulers of the many duchies and comtés which formed the patchwork of feudal territories that was France. This process of centralization proceeded at variable speeds. After the break-up of Charlemagne’s empire at the end of the tenth century, ‘France’ was a kingdom which occupied the region now known as 2 THE MIDDLE AGES the Île de France.

    UNA VIDA PER DUE TROVATORI: ARNAUT DE TINTINHAC E PEIRE DE VALERIA l destino del poeta a noi noto col nome di Peire de Valeria è intrec- I ciato a quello di Arnaut de Tintinhac per via di molti interrogativi, noti ai provenzalisti, a tutt’oggi insoluti; mi ripropongo di tornare su quei problemi, cercando di analizzarne alcuni punti e avanzare nuove ipotesi di lavoro senza, peraltro, pretendere di dirimere la questione con risposte univoche.1 Nei canzonieri I e K si legge, prima della canzone Lo ioi comens en un bel mes (BdT 34.2), questa breve vida: Peire de Valeria si fo de Gascoigna, de la terra de N’Arnaut Guillem de Marsan. Joglars fo el temps et en la saison que fo Marcabrus, e fez vers, tals com hom fazia adoncs, de paubra valor, de foillas e de flors e de cans d’ausels. Sei cantar non aguen gran valor, ni el.2 Di per sé la vida non offre elementi di particolare rilievo, se non la pre- cisazione del luogo d’origine del trovatore con la citazione d’un perso- naggio (evidentemente ben piú noto) e il breve ragguaglio circa la pecu- liarità del soggetto trattato nelle liriche (le foglie, i fiori e i canti d’uccelli).3 I problemi sorgono allorché si tenga conto del fatto che la canzone a cui la vida si riferisce, Lo ioi comens en un bel mes (BdT 34.2), è attribuita a Peire solo da IKd, mentre è data dagli altri canzonieri ad Arnaut de Tintinhac – nel cui testo attribuibile si parla, invero, di fiori, foglie e canti d’uccelli – e contestualmente gli altri testi noti di Peire de Valeria non sembrano corrispondere alla descrizione stilistica della bre- 1 Io stesso, nell’editare i testi del primo, per ragioni di coerenza con il progetto editoriale intrapreso, non ebbi la possibilità di affrontarli (Viel 2011).

Wallenskold 's 1925 edition. An evaluation of the placement and ordering of Thibaut 's songs in the codices, as well as their rubrics and melodies, affordsan understanding of the construction of these chansonniers, obscured through decades of reliance on print editions. A rapid scrutiny of these linguistically (C) and musically (R) marginal manuscripts both reveals how little we know about the transmission of trouvere lyric and underscores the importance of a material-philological approach for all future editions of the trouveres. The corpus of the royal trouvere Thibaut IV of Champagne (1201-1253) has been traditionally numbered at between sixty-one and seventy songs. MS Mt, the Chansonnier du Roi de Navarre- interpolated into MS Paris, Bibliotheque nationale de France, fro 844 and considered one of the most reliable collections of Thibaut's songs - contains sixty entries. In his 1925 edition, Axel Wallenskold declared fifty-nine compositions as authentic (see Table 1).

  • Le Moyen-Âge Et La Renaissance
    Le Moyen-âge et la Renaissance 1) Le Moyen-âge est la période qui s 'étend de 500 à 1500 après J.C. Il dure 10 siècles, du V° au XV° siècle. C'est la période la plus longue de toute l’histoire de la musique . 2 ) Chant grégorien : Chant religieux, chanté à l’Église par les moines, en latin , au début du Moyen-âge. C'est une monodie (chant à un seul son) et a cappella (sans instrument). 3 ) A cappella : le terme a cappella désigne toute musique chantée, vocale, sans accompagnement instrumental. Cette musique a beaucoup été utilisée au Moyen-âge à l’Église pour les chants religieux. 4 ) Monodie : une musique monodique, ou monodie, est une musique jouée part des instruments ou chantée par des voix mais où l'oreille n'entend qu'un seul son. On dit aussi unisson. Tous les musiciens jouent la même mélodie en même temps. 5) Neumes : Ce sont les ancêtres des notes de musique. Au départ, ces signes sont des sortes d'accents, de points ou de traits placés au-dessus du texte en latin pour faciliter la mémorisation des nombreux chants grégoriens appris par les moines au Moyen-âge. 6) Antiphonaire : Recueil où étaient regroupés tous les chants grégoriens des moines du Moyenâge et chantés à l’Église. 7) Orgue : d'usage profane au départ, l'orgue est introduit dans les églises vers la fin du VII° siècle. Charlemagne en fait construire un pour son église d'Aix-la-Chapelle. On distinguait alors l'orgue positif, posé à terre, et l'orgue portatif, porté en bandoulière.
