The number of compositions attributable to the late-12th-century trouvère called Gace Brulé is higher than for any other such French writer of the time. To judge by the unusually numerous manuscript redactions in which many have survived, and the privileged place that they are granted there, his songs were well known and widely appreciated. Our critical edition (with English translations) covers the entire corpus ascribable to Gace, which is devoted above all to the chanson and its expression of “courtly love.”
