Dame de Gosnai

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dame de Gosnai (fl. 1200s CE) was a woman trouvère.[1][2] She was a member of the Puy d'Arras, a society dedicated to competitions between courtly trouvères in 13th century Arras (in modern-day France).[3][4][5]

Her most famous work is a jeu-parti (a composition, usually in the form of a debate, written by two trouvères as interlocutors, who compose alternating verses) known "Dame de Gosnai, gardez".[6][7] Her interlocutor was the trouvère Gillebert de Berneville.[7]
