Include names of key personalities involved. More clarification for this question: what is the name of the person who began this tradition? What were the people called who performed the songs? Who spread this tradition and how? Once this tradition began, what were the titles of troubadours in different parts of Europe? What did they sing about? What are the different names of song types and what was the content of each type about? Can you provide titles of any examples? Why is this tradition from the Middle-Ages meaningful for us today?
