The "chivalry" of Provence love, the burning hormones of passion

The romantic and beautiful love in Provence is a deep-rooted romance, and the growth of the Provence knight class, as well as the emergence, prevalence and development of Provence lyric poetry, are the "ironclad evidence" of romantic love.

In the late European Middle Ages, with the rapid economic development of the feudal landlords, the knight class in southern France grew rapidly. Therefore, the story of the knight class’s emotional entanglement with the noble lady was created and became a story. A unique "love logo" in southern France.

However, the social status of most knights in southern France is relatively low and their lives are relatively poor. For the noble ladies with high status, this asymmetric love is itself full of tragedy. This " The torture and depression of "expected but not expected" and "unexpected but rare" make the love of the Provence knight class always full of ups and downs.

Along with this, in southern France, especially in the Provence region, new lyric poetry was naturally produced, and it was generally sung in the local dialect of Provence. Therefore, these new lyric poems, known as "Provence Lyrics", concentrated on expressing the love thoughts of the Provence knights.
