Objective
This project aims at the edition, study and interpretation of the troubadour poetry written in the Crown of Aragon between the 14th and 15th centuries, with special attention to its reception by a learned public of connoisseurs haunted by the myth of courtly love and its associated culture in the late medieval period. While Italy, France and the rest of the Iberian Peninsula were already moving towards Humanism, in the Crown of Aragon the prestige of the poetic universe created by the troubadours managed to make its way into the 15th century, and was adapted to new cultural fashions through a particular process of appropriation and re-codification that is unique in Europe. The purpose of this project is to enlarge and deepen our knowledge of a linguistic and literary heritage that functioned as a vertebrate agent in medieval aesthetics and poetics and well into the Modern Age. By exploring the paths of this re-codification process, working simultaneously at a linguistic, literary and historical level, we will be able to grasp new aspects of a canon that has been determinant in subsequent artistic movements, namely Spanish Renaissance poetry and the highly innovative discourse undertaken by the Catalan poet Ausiàs March, through which the long autumn of the Middle Ages is finally concluded, giving entrance to Modern poetry in the Iberian peninsula. The project will thus inquire into the question of how the aesthetic and linguistic code of the troubadours shaped the mentality of courtly society, establishing an intellectual and stylistic background in which the literary culture of Europe is deeply rooted. Part of the results of the research will be displayed in a critical digital edition, including codicological, linguistic, literary and historical data that will make the texts express themselves in order to permit a full comprehension of the corpus considered.
