Episode description as stored
<p>How could a love song become a political weapon? How were scandals, wars and crusades turned into some of the most influential poetry ever written?</p><p>The songs of the troubadours - celebrities in their day - helped define the emotional landscape of the Middle Ages and left a legacy that still echoes through European literature. Matt Lewis is joined by Professor Linda M. Paterson to explore the poet-musicians who shaped medieval ideas of courtly love, chivalry, gender, power and performance.</p>
