Book Overview

Troubadours and Courts of Love by John Frederick Rowbotham is a comprehensive study of the medieval French poetry and culture of the troubadours and the courts of love. The book explores the origins and development of the troubadour tradition, the social and cultural context in which it emerged, and the themes and motifs that characterize the poetry of this period. Rowbotham examines the role of the courts of love in shaping the troubadour tradition, and the influence of courtly love on the poetry of the troubadours. He also explores the gender dynamics of the troubadour tradition, and the ways in which women were represented in the poetry of this period. The book includes translations of selected troubadour poems, as well as a detailed analysis of the poetic techniques and structures employed by the troubadours. It also provides a broader historical and cultural context for the troubadour tradition, examining the political, social, and economic factors that contributed to its development. Overall, Troubadours and Courts of Love is an essential resource for anyone interested in the medieval French poetry and culture of the troubadours, and provides a fascinating insight into one of the most important literary traditions of the Middle Ages.1895.
