Al final del siglo XV, y hasta la mitad del siglo XVI, la música todavía no se había independizado de la letra con la que formaba un concierto armonioso. Da la pauta el canto religioso y lo profano respeta tan inspirados ejemplos ofreciendo música cantada y canto musicado. La sociedad de corte es la que ofrece la ilustración más brillante de la textura musical del verso, tanto como de la riqueza expresiva de la música. Parece natural que filólogos y musicólogos se concierten para estudiar estos elementos de la poesía cantada de los siglos XV y XVI. ¡Pero los primeros sólo estudian la letra, los segundos únicamente el canto! De ahí surgió la idea de delimitar cuál fue el entorno en que creció y floreció la poesía cantada. Las fuentes están disponibles en el caso de las personas reales, o las partituras y tablaturas conservadas en los tratados de vihuela. Pero en la mayoría de los casos, el investigador debe reconstruir la figura de un poeta-músico, el conjunto de una obra, los versos que fueron cantados sin que nadie se molestara en apuntar la música. Toda una serie de problemas que no hubieran podido ser resueltos sin la colaboración efectiva de filólogos y musicólogos, cuyo intento queda reflejado en estas páginas.

Today we usually think of a book of poems as composed by a poet, rather than assembled or adapted by a network of poets and readers. But the earliest European vernacular poetries challenge these assumptions. Medieval songbooks remind us how lyric poetry was once communally produced and received-a collaboration of artists, performers, live audiences, and readers stretching across languages and societies. The only comparative study of its kind, Songbook treats what poetry was before the emergence of the modern category "poetry": that is, how vernacular songbooks of the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries shaped our modern understanding of poetry by establishing expectations of what is a poem, what is a poet, and what is lyric poetry itself. Marisa Galvez analyzes the seminal songbooks representing the vernacular traditions of Occitan, Middle High German, and Castilian, and tracks the process by which the songbook emerged from the original performance contexts of oral publication, into a medium for preservation, and, finally, into an established literary object. Galvez reveals that songbooks-in ways that resonate with our modern practice of curated archives and playlists-contain lyric, music, images, and other nonlyric texts selected and ordered to reflect the local values and preferences of their readers. At a time when medievalists are reassessing the historical foundations of their field and especially the national literary canons established in the nineteenth century, a new examination of the songbook's role in several vernacular traditions is more relevant than ever.
