Set in the historical region of Occitania during the Middle Ages, this comprehensive study delves into the society that nurtured the troubadours, who pioneered "courtly love" and a new poetic vernacular. It provides readers of literature with a deeper understanding of the realities behind the troubadours' poetic mystique, while also presenting historians with valuable insights into a significant yet overlooked aspect of medieval European culture. This exploration bridges the gap between literary art and historical context.
