Audio CD includes musical pieces performed by Elizabeth Aubrey.An Introduction to Old Occitan is the only textbook in print for learning the language used by the troubadours in southern France during the Middle Ages. An essential glossary analyzes every occurrence of every word in the readings and gives cognates in other Romance languages as well as the source of each word in Latin or other languages. Each of the thirty-two chapters discusses a subject in the study of the language (e.g., stressed vowels, subjunctive mood) and includes an exercise based on a reading of an Occitan text that has been edited afresh for this volume.
An accompanying compact disc includes discussion of the pronunciation of the language, with illustrations from the texts in the book, and The book also contains a list of prefixes, infixes, and suffixes and a dictionary of proper names.
