WHAT DOES TROUVEUR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Trouvère

Trouvère, sometimes spelled trouveur, is the Northern French form of the langue d'oc word trobador. It refers to poet-composers who were roughly contemporary with and influenced by the troubadours but who composed their works in the northern dialects of France. The first known trouvère was Chrétien de Troyes and the trouvères continued to flourish until about 1300. Some 2130 trouvère poems have survived; of these, at least two-thirds have melodies. The etymology of the word troubadour and its cognates in other languages is disputed, but may be related to trobar “to compose, to discuss, to invent”, cognative with Old French trover “to compose something in verses”. The popular image of the troubadour or trouvère is that of the itinerant musician wandering from town to town, lute on his back. Such people existed, but they were called jongleurs and minstrels — poor musicians, male and female, on the fringes of society. The troubadours and trouvères, on the other hand, represent aristocratic music making.
