The Troubadour
None
Razos and Troubadour Songs
Originally published in 1990, this book contains the full text and translation of razos and troubadour songs. The coupling of the razos and songs in this edition is based on the conviction that though the lyrics should first be read on their own, it is highly instructive to read the two together, as the razo authors intended. This allows the reader to attempt to read as a thirteenth-century contemporary might have.
The Troubadours
Originally published during the early part of the twentieth century, the Cambridge Manuals of Science and Literature were designed to provide concise introductions to a broad range of topics. They were written by experts for the general reader and combined a comprehensive approach to knowledge with an emphasis on accessibility. H. J. Chaytor's volume The Troubadours was published in 1912. It introduces the reader to the concept of courtly love and to the role of the troubadour poets, tracing their influence across medieval Europe.

Troubadour
Zuid-Frankrijk, 13e eeuw. Kruisvaarders overspoelen moordend en plunderend het land. Bertran, een kathaar, riskeert zijn eigen leven om anderen voor de invasie te waarschuwen. Als troubadour kan hij van kasteel naar kasteel reizen en het nieuws verspreiden zonder verdenkingen op zich te richten. Intussen verlaat Elinor, een jonge edelvrouw, haar veilige en comfortabele omgeving om ook troubadour te worden. Ze is verliefd op Bertran en wil hem achterna. Terwijl het bloedvergieten dieper doordringt in hun persoonlijke omgeving, raakt zowel Bertran als Elinor steeds verder ingesloten door het gevaar. Een spannende roman van de auteur van de succesvolle Stravaganza-serie.
Troubadour
‘Where the twins had been a body lay in long, soft robes, and by its head a discarded lute. The head was split into halves from the apex of the skull to the nose’. Is this macabre scene only theatre, or a sign of ill omen? In the conclusion of the ‘First Born of Egypt’ saga, the fate of Conyngham, Marius Stern and other characters is decided.
A Handbook of the Troubadours
This book is a reference volume and a digest of more than a century of scholarly work on troubadour poetry. Written by leading scholars, it summarizes the current consensus on the various facets of troubadour studies. Standing at the beginning of the history of modern European verse, the troubadours were the prime poets and composers of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries in the South of France. No study of medieval literature is complete without an examination of the courtly love which is celebrated in the elaborately rhymed stanzas of troubadour verse, creations whose words and melodies were imitated by poets and musicians all over medieval Europe. The words of about 2,500 troubadour songs have survived, along with 250 melodies, and all have come under intense scholarly scrutiny. This Handbook brings together the fruits of this scrutiny, giving teachers and students an overview of the fundamental issues in troubadour scholarship. All quotations are given in the original Old Occitan and in English. The editors provide a list of troubadour editions and an index, and each chapter includes a list of additional readings.
