Faidit, Gaucelme

    0.04 sec.

Faidit, Gaucelme (c. 1160-c. 1215)

Provençal troubadour. He was at first a jongleur, and travelled with his wife, Guilhelma Monja, to various European courts. In 1202 he accompanied Boniface III of Montserrat to the Fourth Crusade and several of his songs exhort the young and strong to take part in the holy war. Among his patrons were Richard the Lion-Heart (whose death he lamented in a beautiful planh), Raymond d'Agoult, and Geoffrey of Brittany.
