The Troubadours eBook

This eBook from the Gutenberg Project consists of approximately 118 pages of information about The Troubadours.
from Raynouard, Choix des poesies originales des Troubadours, Paris, 1816.  Suchier, Denkmaeler provenzalischer Sprache, Halle, 1883; Appel, Provenzalische Inedita, Leipsic, 1890; Chabaneau, Poesies inedites des Troubadours du Perigord, Paris, 1885; P. Meyer, Les derniers troubadours de Provence, Paris, 1871, should be mentioned.  Most of the pieces in the Parnasse Occitanien, Toulouse, 1819, are to be found better edited elsewhere.  Other pieces are to be found in various Festschriften and occasional or private publications, too numerous to be detailed here.  C. Chabaneau, Les biographies des Troubadours, Toulouse, 1885 (part of the Histoire generale de Languedoc) is full of valuable information.  The biographies have been translated by I. Farnell, Lives of the Troubadours, London, 1896.
