Troubadour, lyric poet of southern France, northern Spain, and northern Italy, writing in the langue d’oc of Provence; flourished from the late 11th to the late 13th century. Their social influence was unprecedented in the history of medieval poetry. Favored at the courts, they had great freedom of speech, occasionally intervening even in the political arena, but their great achievement was to create around the ladies of the court an aura of cultivation and amenity that nothing had hitherto approached. Troubadour poetry formed one of the most brilliant schools that ever flourished, and it was to influence all later European lyrical poetry.
