The World of the Troubadours: Medieval Occitan Society, c.1100–c.1300
Linda M. Paterson
Occitania, known today as "the south of France", had its own language and culture in the Middle Ages. Its troubadours created "courtly love" and a new poetic language in the vernacular, which influenced European literature for centuries. This work studies the society the troubadors inhabited.
