The article presents a minutely detailed analysis of the idea and the experience of
love as represented in the songwriter Rigaut de Barbezieux. The author endeavors
to outline the stages of a kind of logical journey. He concludes with the thesis that
Rigaut de Barbezieux was the first troubadour to conceive of amorous passion as a
form of purely selfless contemplation, excluding even communication between souls.
In other words, his historical originality would lie in the fact that, of all troubadours,
he was the first to express, clearly and with a remarkable sense of importance, the
ideal encompassed in the expression “courtly love” in its simplest and most popular
form. The religious allegories encompassed within the comparisons so lavishly developed by the poet harmonize remarkably with this idea of profane love as a kind
of pious and moral cult. |
