Guilhem de Montanhagol, "Non an dig tan li primier trobador" (BdT 225.7)

Abstract

This contribution provides a close examination and a new critical edition of Non an dig tan li primier trobador by Guilhem de Montanhagol (BdT 225.7). In the context of the explanation of its rhetorical strategies, the possibility of an intertextual relationship between Non an dig tan and Dante’s Tanto gentile is assessed, as well as the hypothesis of Montanhagol’s conceptual debt to Andreas Capellanus’ De amore.
