9780521826723 / Eight Centuries of Troubadours and Trouvères: The Changing Identity of Medieval Music (Musical Performance and Reception) Illustrated Edition
by Cambridge University Press; Illustrated edition (August 9, 2004) (Author)
From the medieval chansonniers to contemporary rap renditions, this book traces the changing interpretation of troubadour and trouvère music, a repertoire of songs which have successfully maintained public interest for eight centuries. A study of their reception, therefore, serves to illustrate the development of the modern concept of “medieval music”. Important stages in their evolution include sixteenth-century antiquarianism; the Enlightenment synthesis of scholarly and popular traditions; and the infusion of archaeology and philology in the nineteenth century, leading to more recent theories on medieval rhythm.
