This groundbreaking anthology brings together for the first time the works of women poet-composers, or trouveres, in northern France in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Refuting the long-held notion that there are no extant Old France lyrics by women from this period, the editors of the volume present songs attributed to eight named female trouveres along with a varied selection of anonymous compositions in the feminine voice that may have been composed by women. This book includes the Old French texts of seventy-five compositions, English translations, extant music for eighteen monophonic songs and nineteen polyphonic motets, and a substantial introduction.
