Title: Between Sequence and Sirventes : Aspects of Parody in Troubadour Lyric
Author, co-author: Leglu, Catherine
Abstract: This monograph, based on part of a doctoral thesis, is an enquiry into the relationship between troubadour poetry of the 12th to 13th centuries and religious chant, specifically the Aquitainian corpus. The study assesses the extent to which these rewritten poems could have been received as parodies, with close attention to metre, rhyme, and to the construction of the troubadour's satirical or moralising persona.
