Wikipedia, July 26, 2024 (Raimbaut of Orange (Old Provençal: Raimbaut d'Aurenga; c. 1147-1173) was the lord of Orange and Aumelas and an influential troubadour in medieval France. His properties included the towns of Frontignan and Mireval. Raimbaut contributed to the creation of trobar ric, or articulate style, in troubadour poetry. About forty of his works survive, displaying a gusto for rare rhymes and intricate poetic form. His death in 1173 is mourned in a planh (lament) by Giraut de Bornelh, and also in the only surviving poem of the trobairitz Azalais de Porcairagues)
