THE CASTILIAN ARTE MAYOR POEMS OF LES TROBES EN LAHORS DE LA VERGE MARIA (74*LV): ECDOTIC PROBLEMS, LINGUISTIC INTERFERENCES, AND CRITICAL EDITION

In this paper we study the two Castilian ante mayor poems that are transmitted in Les trobes en lahors de la Verge Maria: Franci de Castellvi's Del gran Redemptor ([ID 4650] and Pere de Civillar's Al tempo que Febo ([ID4652]. In the first part of the paper, we describe the prosody of these poems (stanza and meter), which will offer a proper framework for text editing. In the second part, we consider linguistic interference. Identifying Catalan and Aragonese influences will allow us not only to approach a critical edition in a way that respects the text's diasystem, but also to reflect on the linguistic, compositional and mechanical processes that take part during the poetic composition and the printing process. Finally, we hereby publish a new critical edition of both poems.
