For medievals it was a particularized expression, beyond the bounds of normal discourse, worth careful critique, dissemination, and preservation. Transmitted with or via music, whose mobility and mouvance differs from that of written texts, courtly song was part of a cultural phenomenon common to most of Western Europe. The rise of the courtly lyric created a common poetic culture in which lyric poetry moved freely between and across geopolitical entities, where knowledge of ‘foreign’ poetry was far from unusual. Medieval poetry thus challenges modern conceptions of normative boundaries: the requisite recalibration is the subject of this investigation. It is concerned especially with linguistic boundaries: these differ, naturally enough, from modern ones, and invite closer examination of what languages were or could be in literary circles in the High Middle Ages. The material examined centres on Occitan and Old French literature between c. 1140 and 1350, but also makes substantial reference to works produced in Italian and German-speaking areas, and, occasionally, to Catalan, Latin and Middle English texts. My aim is to examine the different modes in which lyric poetry and lyrical forms moved around medieval Europe, suggesting patterns of crossing and confronting linguistic boundaries, both in their composition and their subsequent MS transmission. Each variety of mobility (contrafactum, multilingual poetry, lyric intercalation, translation, and the adoption of ‘foreign’ languages) has formed in previous scholarship a single topic of discussion. It is thus the novelty of this work to bring them together in order to give a richer account of European lyrical culture in the Middle Ages. There emerges a polycentric poetic field which does not map onto the Europe of standard national languages and literatures, but where the most important language was that of the courtly lyric itself. 1 Table of Contents Abstract ........................................................................................................................................................ 1 Acknowledgements ..................................................................................................................................... 4 Abbreviations .............................................................................................................................................. 5 Introduction: Song in the European Middle Ages ................................................................................. 6 1.Poésie sans frontières: The fate of Bernart de Ventadorn’s ‘Can vei la lauzeta mover’ .............. 18 The MS transmission of ‘Can vei’ ....................................................................................................................... 21 Occitan responses to ‘Can vei’ ............................................................................................................................ 27 The ‘Carestia’ Debate............................................................................................................................................ 36 The Clerical Reception of Bernart de Ventadorn ............................................................................................ 54 Plus ultra: The Further Adventures of ‘Can vei’ .............................................................................................. 65 Citations of ‘Can vei’............................................................................................................................................. 72 A European Song .................................................................................................................................................. 78 2.

  • Love and War: Troubadour Songs As Propaganda, Protest, and Politics in the Albigensian Crusade
    Love and War: Troubadour Songs as Propaganda, Protest, and Politics in the Albigensian Crusade By Leslee Wood B.A., University of Utah, 2003 Submitted to the graduate degree program in Music and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Music. _________________________________________ Chair: Roberta Schwartz, PhD _________________________________________ Paul Laird, PhD _________________________________________ Bryan Kip Haaheim, DMA Date Defended: May 25, 2017 The thesis committee for Leslee Wood certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Love and War: Troubadour Songs as Propaganda, Protest, and Politics in the Albigensian Crusade ___________________________________________ Chair: Roberta Schwartz, PhD Date approved: May 25, 2017 ii Abstract: From the eleventh through the thirteenth century, the troubadours flourished in the Occitan courts of southern France. As the artistic and political voices of their culture, these men and women were educated, creative, and well-placed to envoice the cultural and political events of their time. In 1208, Pope Innocent III launched the Albigensian Crusade against the pervasive Cathar sect, which had attracted followers from every stratum of Occitan society, including believers from the most important ruling families. For twenty years, the crusade decimated the region and destroyed the socio-political apparatus which had long supported, and been given voice by, the troubadours and trobairises. By the end of the war in 1229, the Occitan nobility were largely disinherited and disempowered, unable to support the kind of courtly estates to which they had been accustomed and in which the art de trobar had flourished. Many troubadours were involved both politically and militarily in the crusade and their lyric reactions include astute political commentaries, vigorous calls-to-arms, invectives against the corruption of the Catholic clergy and the French invaders, and laments for the loss of both individuals and institutions.

II. Ses poésies jongleresques. III. Ses poésies courtoises. Existait-il avant lui une tradition poétique? I Les œuvres de Guillaume IX sont les plus anciens vers lyriques qui aient été écrits dans une langue moderne: par une chance exceptionnelle, nous connaissons, avec une suffisante précision, le caractère et la vie de l'auteur. Saisissons donc avec empressement cette occasion de confronter l'homme et l'œuvre. Né en 1071, il avait hérité, à seize ans, d'immenses domaines, plus étendus que ceux du roi de France lui-même. La nature l'avait comblé de ses dons: il était beau et brave, nous disent ses contemporains (1), gai et spirituel, ses œuvres nous l'attestent. Mais c'était un esprit fantasque, un brouillon, incapable de desseins suivis. Aussi son règne ne fut-il qu'une succession d'entreprises mal conçues et vouées à l'échec: en 1098, pendant que Raimon de Saint-Gilles, son beau-frère, était à la croisade, il tenta sur le Toulousain un coup de main qui ne lui rapporta rien et ne lui fit pas honneur. En 1101 il se croisa à son tour et conduisit en Terre Sainte une immense armée qui fondit en route, et dont les restes furent détruits par les Sarrasins dans les plaines de l'Asie mineure.

  • 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.

Agli studi e al prezioso aiuto di Stefano Asperti devo non solo il fondamento di questo lavoro, ma anche un supporto indispensabile. Parimenti ad Anna Radaelli, sono grato per un sostegno costante, non solo scientifico ma anche morale ed emotivo. Non di meno, i numerosi consigli di Emma Dillon, spesso accompagnati da confortanti tazze di caffè nero e bollente, mi hanno permesso di (ri-)trovare ordine nel coacervo di dati, intuizioni e deduzioni che ho dovuto affrontare giorno dopo giorno. A Simon Gaunt devo un prezioso aiuto nella prima e confusa fase della mia ricerca. A Marco Cursi e Stefano Palmieri devo una paziente consulenza paleografica e a Francesca Manzari un’indispensabile expertise sulle decorazioni del Roi. Ringrazio inoltre Davide Daolmi per la guida, il paziente aiuto e le numerose “pulci”; Maria Teresa Rachetta, filologa romanza, per aver lavorato e presentato con me i primi frutti di questa ricerca, lo Chansonnier du Roi per avermi dato l’opportunità di conoscere Maria Teresa Rachetta, l’amica; Livio Giuliano per ragionamenti improbabili ad ore altrettanto improbabili, sulla sociologia arrageois; Cecilia Malatesta e Ortensia Giovannini perché … il resto nol dico, già ognuno lo sa.

    No. 3 (Spring 2014), 176-194 ISSN 2014-7023 SABER, SEN I TROBAR: RAMON DE CORNET AND THE CONSISTORY OF THE GAY SCIENCE1 Marina Navàs Farré École Nationales des Chartes e-mail: [email protected] Received: 31 Oct. 2013 | Revised: 10 Feb. 2014 | Accepted: 10 March 2014 | Available online: 20 June 2014 | doi: 10.1344/Svmma2014.3.15 Resum Sovint l’estudi de la lírica occitanocatalana del segle XIV ha estat supeditat a la poètica de certamen que gravita a l’entorn del Consistori del Gai Saber de Tolosa de Llenguadoc. A aquest fet, cal sumar-hi el judici pejoratiu que gran part de la crítica ha formulat sobre el Consistori, atribuint- li la voluntat d’imposar una forma artificiosa acompanyada d’un contingut moral o devot que s’avingués amb l’ortodòxia cristiana. Els pocs autors conservats de l’època que no es podien encabir del tot en aquest marc, com ara Ramon de Cornet –paradoxalment l’autor amb més obra conservada de la primera meitat del Tres-cents i amb una difusió més àmplia–, són considerats una excepció i fins i tot, en el cas de Cornet, d’estrafolari. Però si estudiem la seva obra en el marc de la tradició literària més immediata, la dels darrers trobadors, veurem com la poètica del XIV és una evolució natural d’aquest llegat, que respon a unes exigències de gust literari que va molt més enllà de les suposades coaccions consistorials. Una mostra d’això és la peça «Al noble cavalier» de Cornet. Paraules clau: Ramon de Cornet, lírica occitanocatalana, trobadors, Consistori de la Gaia Ciència, Escola de Tolosa Abstract The study of 14th-century Occitan poetry has been overshadowed by its alleged subjection to the poetics of the contests organized by the Toulousain Consistory of the Gay Science.
