Troubadours and Courts of Love by John Frederick Rowbotham is a comprehensive exploration of the cultural and social phenomenon of the troubadours and their impact on the courts of love in medieval Europe. The book delves into the origins and development of troubadour poetry and its relationship with the courtly love tradition, examining the themes of love, desire, and chivalry that were central to the troubadours' work. Rowbotham also explores the role of the troubadours in shaping the courtly culture of the time, including their influence on the development of courtly etiquette and the ideals of courtly love. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, including troubadour lyrics, historical documents, and literary texts, Rowbotham provides a detailed and engaging account of this fascinating period in European history. This book will appeal to scholars and students of medieval literature, history, and culture, as well as to general readers interested in the history of love and romance.1895.
