‘Singers about love’ (1 janv. 1180 – 1 févr. 1220)

Description:

Troubadours appear in Germany and call themselves minnesingers, “singers about love.”


In a time dominated by the Church, troubadours became well-known secular entertainers moving beyond religious themes and exploring love and politics. Troubadours rose to prominence in the High Middle Ages, which is generally considered to be 1100-1350; however, a majority of the surviving works date to what is referred to as the classical period (1180-1220).
