Qualche nota su "Reis glorios"

Abstract

The article constitutes a return to the textual and interpretative questions concerning the famous alba by Giraut de Borneill, starting from the important studies that have been dedicated to this poem over the last ten years. A new examination of the tradition and a commentary on relevant places in the text are presented, followed by an overall interpretation of the poem, placed within the perimeter of the love dawn song but reconsidered and ‘contested’ in the light of Giraut’s moralism.
