This is the first full-length study of the vernacular motet in
thirteenth-century France. The motet was the most prestigious type
of music of that period, filling a gap between the music of the
so-called Notre-Dame School and the Ars Nova of the early
fourteenth century. This book takes the music and the poetry of the
motet as its starting-point and attempts to come to grips with the
ways in which musicians and poets treated pre-existing material,
creating new artefacts. The book reviews the processes of texting
and retexting, and the procedures for imparting structure to the
works; it considers the way we conceive genre in the
thirteenth-century motet, and supplements these with principles
derived from twentieth-century genre theory. The motet is viewed as
the interaction of literary and musical modes whose relationships
give meaning to individual musical compositions.
