Abstract

This paper focuses on a parchment sheet from a lost troubadour songbook, recently discovered in the library of the Seminario of Pavia. Written at the end of 13th or at the beginning of 14th century, perhaps in an atelier of the northern Tyrrhenian area, it was subsequently reused to reinforce the cover of a 16h century printed book. The fragment, which was assigned the siglum Pv, contains the vidas and some poems of Guillem de Berguedan and Raimbaut d’Aurenga. Two remarkable lectures conveyed by Pv testify for its important role into the Venetian tradition ɛ of troubadour songbooks: the signature of Uc de Saint Circ in the text of Raimbaut d’Aurenga’s vida, and a verse of a sirventes by Guillem de Berguedan (BdT 210.19) which is unknown to any other manuscript containing this poem. Furthermore, the codicologic and palaeographic analysis and the study of the scripta and the decoration shows that Pv belonged to the same dismantled manuscript as two other chansonnier fragments separately discovered during the last century (m and m2).
