About the Book

Parody marks the troubadour lyric from the outset, informing composition, performance and reception. This ground breaking study moves away from courtliness, the focus of most previous studies, and places troubadour parodic preactice int he context of the social and spiritual debates of 12th and 13th century Occitania. Leglu analyses the complex relationship between troubadour verse and the Aquitanian para-liturgical Latin corpus. She charts the development of a chain of texts linked by a common formal mode derived from this Latin sequence and traces patterns of rewriting, ranging from scurrilous attacks, through playful competition, to recuperation of the sacred content in serious parody.

Table of Contents:
Introduction; 1: Parodic Sequences and Peire Cardenal; 2: Metrical Structures and Formal Recognition; 3: Recognition and Recollection of Form and Content; 4: Rewriting and the Role of Serious Parody; 5: Between Preacher and Jester: Singing a Sermon; Conclusion

Review :
An insightful analysis of a series of medieval Occitan parodies... Specialists and graduate students will find themselves doubly served by Leglu s careful research as well as by her patient development of complex issues.--Daniel E. O'Sullivan "French Review, 76.3, 2003, 594-5 "" An interesting study that considerably increases our appreciation of the complex relationships between secular and sacred song and between canons and clerics, troubadours and jongleurs, categories that have too long been separated by different academic disciplines.--Laura Kendrick "Speculum, October, 2003, 1338-40 " Apporte un point de vue qui contribuera a faire progresser notre connaissance des troubadours.--Peter Ricketts "Revue des Langues Romanes, CVII/2, 2003, 501-3 "" Brilliant readings of individual texts, as well as invaluable exposition of liturgical and other ecclesiastical material relevant to troubadour compositions.--Linda M. Paterson "Mediem Aevum, LXXII.1, 2003, 148-9 " Die Arbeit halt, was sie eingangs verspricht: Verf. zeigt vielfaltige Aspekte jener miteinander dialogisierenden Texte auf, die sich im Grenzbereich zwischen erbaulicher und weltlicher Dichtung bewegen. Uber die Reihenfolge der jeweils besprochenen Aspekte sowie uber ihre Bedeutung im Einzelfall liesse sich sicherlich diskutieren.--Michael Bernsen "Zeitschrift fur romanische Philologie, 119, 2003, 355-7 "" Provides a very interesting combination of comparative analysis of musical and textual borrowings, with the discussion of the wider background and referents of the troubadours. This approach enlightens a too-often forgotten corpus of poetry and also provides a fruitful methodological model.--Miriam Cabre "French Studies, LVI.2, 2002, 221-94 ""
