Nei secoli XII e XIII la liturgia rivestì un ruolo chiave nella vita di ogni persona. A partire da questa premessa, il presente lavoro indaga l'influenza della liturgia sui componimenti dei trovatori occitani; in particolare, viene mostrato come un ampio numero di canzoni provenzali celi, dietro la lettera del testo, il ricorso - non necessariamente volontario - a fonti di tipo liturgico. Lo studio è diviso in sezioni che mirano a proporre una panoramica esaustiva tanto della liturgia medievale, quanto del fenomeno della fin'amors. Nello specifico, l'analisi mostra: l'influsso su Guglielmo IX della struttura metrico-melodica di inni e prosule, nonché del culto dei santi nel limosino; il riuso di formule liturgiche, preghiere e letture bibliche in Marcabru e Peire d'Alvernhe; la sovrapposizione fra la gestualità del fedele a messa e quella di Gaucelm Faidit nell'atto di pregare la domna; l'influsso dei sacramenti, e in particolare la penitenza, su alcuni dei principali trovatori; infine, il ricorrente impiego in ambito cortese di metafore di origine liturgica, come quella del 'fuoco d'amore'. This study investigates the influence of medieval liturgy on the literary work of Occitan poets during the 12th and 13th centuries. It focuses on the diverse effects emanating from metrical hymn structure, sacraments, prayers, and the veneration of the saints, and additionally explores the specific impact of liturgical metaphors on the language of the troubadours.

The link between weddings and death-as found in dramas ranging from Romeo and Juliet to Lorca's Blood Wedding-plays a central role in the action of many Greek tragedies. Female characters such as Kassandra, Antigone, and Helen enact and refer to significant parts of wedding and funeral rites, but often in a twisted fashion. Over time the pressure of dramatic events causes the distinctions between weddings and funerals to disappear. In this book, Rush Rehm considers how and why the conflation of the two ceremonies comes to theatrical life in the tragedies of Aeschylus, Sophokles, and Euripides. By focusing on the dramatization of important rituals conducted by women in ancient Athenian society, Rehm offers a new perspective on Greek tragedy and the challenges it posed for its audience.The conflation of weddings and funerals, the author argues, unleashes a kind of dramatic alchemy whereby female characters become the bearers of new possibilities. Such as formulation enables the tragedians to explore the limitations of traditional thinking and acting in fifth-century Athens. Rehm finds that when tragic weddings and funerals become confused and perverted, the aftershocks disturb the political and ideological givens of Athenian society, challenging the audience to consider new, and often radically different, directions for their city.Rush Rehm is Assistant Professor of Drama and Classics at Standford University and a free-lance theater director. He is the author of Greek Tragic Theatre (Routledge) and Aeschylus' Oresteia: A Theatre Vision (Hawthorn).Originally published in 1994.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
