Sordello

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.02 sec.

Sordello (c. 1200–1270)

Italian troubadour. He came under the protection first of Guillaume de Blacatz, and afterwards of Charles d'Anjou, and wrote in Provençal. He is credited with about 30 love songs, and his lament on the death of Blacatz is notable.

Born in Goito, he first appeared in Florence in a small company of jugglers. He was forced to flee to Provence, France, because of the abduction of Cunizza da Romano.
