Memory and Re-Creation in Troubadour Lyric delves into the intricate and dynamic world of medieval troubadour poetry, examining its artistic evolution and cultural context. This groundbreaking work challenges traditional romanticized interpretations of troubadour songs, which often viewed them as personal outpourings of emotion or autobiographical reflections. Instead, the book situates troubadour lyric within a framework of formalism and performance, emphasizing its reliance on conventions, originality, and interaction with audiences. By analyzing the dynamic process of "mouvance"-the fluidity of medieval texts during oral and written transmission-this study highlights how troubadours balanced the creation of distinctive poetic voices with the inevitability of adaptation and transformation over time. The book explores how troubadours actively engaged in literary innovation while addressing the inherent challenges of oral tradition and textual mobility. Through in-depth analyses of poets like Jaufre Rudel, Raimbaut d'Aurenga, and Arnaut Daniel, it reveals the complex interplay between individuality and tradition, as well as the deliberate use of metaphor, rhyme, and structure to shape audience reception. With its rich examination of twelfth-century poetics, performance practices, and manuscript evidence, Memory and Re-Creation in Troubadour Lyric offers a nuanced understanding of how these medieval poets navigated the tension between ephemeral oral performances and the enduring legacy of written text. This work is an invaluable resource for those seeking to uncover the layered artistry of troubadour poetry and its enduring cultural significance.
