Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins and development of lyrical poetry in medieval France, particularly the troubadours and trouvà res of the 12th and 13th centuries. The author traces the evolution of these poets' themes, styles, and conventions, situating their work within the broader context of medieval society and culture. The book argues that the troubadours and trouvà res were not merely entertainers but also social commentators and moralists, whose songs reflected the values and aspirations of their time. Through their poetry, they celebrated love, chivalry, and courtly manners, but also critiqued social injustice and hypocrisy. The author also examines the role of women in troubadour and trouvà re poetry, arguing that these poets created a new and idealized image of women as objects of desire and sources of inspiration. This new ideal of femininity had a profound impact on European literature and culture, and can still be seen in the works of modern-day poets and writers. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive and nuanced account of the origins and development of lyrical poetry in medieval France. It is a valuable resource for scholars and students of medieval literature, as well as anyone interested in the history of love, chivalry, and courtly culture.
