The Comtessa de Dia (Countess of Die),〔''Diá'' in modern Occitan spelling; ''Dia'' in medieval Occitan writing, which could be stressed over ''i'' or perhaps already over ''a'' like in modern Occitan.〕 probably named Beatritz or Beatriz (fl. c. 1175), was a trobairitz (female troubadour). She is only known as the ''comtessa de Dia'' in contemporary documents, but was almost certainly named Beatriz and likely the daughter of Count Isoard II of Diá (a town northeast of Montelimar in southern France). According to her ''vida'', she was married to William of Poitiers, but was in love with and sang about Raimbaut of Orange (1146-1173).〔Bruckner, Matilda Tomaryn. (1995). Songs of the Women Troubadours.〕 It has been hypothesised that she was in fact married to Guillem's son, Ademar de Peiteus, whose wife's name was Philippa de Fay, and that her real lover was Raimbaut de Vaqueiras.〔(''Bibliografia Elettronica dei Trovatori'' ), version 2.0, online since 1 Sept. 2008. Accessed 18 June 2013.〕 Beatrice's poems were often set to the music of a flute. Five of her works survive, including 4 cansos and 1 tenson.〔Troubadour Music at the Music Encyclopedia.〕 Scholars have debated whether or not Comtessa authored ''Amics, en greu consirier,'' a tenso typically attributed to Raimbaut d'Aurenga. One reason for this is due to the similarities between this composition and her own ''Estat ai en greu consirier.'' A second reason references the words in her ''vida,'' ''Et enamoret se d'En Rambaut d' Ashley, e fez de lui mantas bonas cansos'' (she fell in love with Sir Raimbaut d'Aurenga, and made about him many good ''cansos'' ).〔Paden, William D. The Voice of the Trobairitz.〕 Her song ''A chantar m'er de so qu'eu no volria'' in the Occitan language is the only ''canso'' by a ''trobairitz'' to survive with its music intact.〔Elizabeth Aubrey. "Comtessa de Dia", ''Grove Music Online''.〕 The music to ''A chantar'' is found only in ''Le manuscript di roi,'' a collection of songs copied around 1270 for Charles of Anjou, the brother of Louis IX.〔Pendle, Karin. Women and Music: A History.〕 Her extant poems are:〔 : *''Ab joi et ab joven m'apais'' : *''A chantar m'er de so qu'ieu non volria'' : *''Estât ai en greu cossirier'' : *''Fin ioi me don'alegranssa'' Typical subject matter used by Comtessa de Dia in her lyrics includes optimism, praise of herself and her love, as well as betrayal. In ''A chantar,'' Comtessa plays the part of a betrayed lover, and despite the fact she has been betrayed, continues to defend and praise herself. In ''Fin ioi me don'alegranssa,'' however, Comtessa makes fun of the lausengier, a person known for gossiping, comparing those who gossip to a "cloud that obscures the sun."〔Earnshaw, Doris. The Female Voice in Medieval Romance Lyric〕 In writing style, Comtessa uses a process known as ''coblas singulars'' in ''A chantar,'' repeating the same rhyme scheme in each strophe, but changing the ''a'' rhyme each time. ''Ab ioi,'' on the other hand, uses ''coblas doblas,'' with a rhyme scheme of ab' ab' b' aab'.〔 ''A chantar'' uses some of the motifs of Idyll II of Theocritus.〔 ==In popular culture== She is the subject of a series of historical novels by the East German author Irmtraud Morgner.〔Irmtraud Morgner's Trobadora Beatrice by Elizabeth Morier〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Beatritz de Dia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
