Eight Centuries of Troubadours and Trouveres: The Changing Identity of Medieval Music (Musical Performance and Reception)
John Haines
From the medieval chansonniers to contemporary rap renditions, this book traces the changing interpretation of troubadour and trouv?re 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.
