Kurzfassung:
After an overview of the troubadours' social and political milieu, Aubrey provides brief biographies of the 42 troubadours whose music survives and a detailed description of the four manuscripts that transmit this music. The overlapping roles of composers, singers, and scribes -- and their traditions in genre, versification, and poetic style -- are examined. Traits of individual composers and a broad chronological development of the music emerge. Exploring performance-practice issues, Aubrey helps modern performers bring these songs to life again.
