Andreas Capellanus (Andre the Chaplain) wrote The Art of Courtly Love at the request of Countess Marie of Troyes, daughter of Eleanor of Aquitaine.
Andreas Capellanus, chaplain at the court of Countess Marie de Champagne, daughter of Eleanor of Aquitaine, wrote this treatise on courtly love in the 12th century--ostensibly to educate a friend--and thus set a new standard for lovers.
Capellanus' work may have been intended as a satirical reworking of Ovid's Ars Amatoria, or it might have been influenced by the Arabic views of love in The Dove's Neck-Ring by Ibn Hazm a Mozarabic writer of the 11th century.

Capellanus recognizes this by assaying that “a clerk cannot look for love for on the strength of it he ought not devote himself to the works of love but is bound to renounce absolutely all the delights of the flesh...” (142).
Capellanus expresses that any man who involves himself with a nun should be “avoided as an abominable beast” (143) and nuns should be condemned as if “they carried a plague” (143).
Capellanus shows his religious side and that he is a man of the church, but in the first book, he shows that it is not his priority.

 Andreas Capellanus Criticism and Essays
Capellanus was certainly well versed in Ovid's writings and critics have demonstrated that he used the Ars Amatoria and the Remedia Amoris as models for his book.
Some critics choose to believe that Capellanus was sincere in the first two books and cynically appended the third book to try to avoid having the preceding ones banned.
Ohers think that Capellanus was sincere in the final book; still others posit that he was being ironic; and one group advocates viewing all three books an elaborate humorous exercise.

 Andreas Capellanus
Andreas provides sample dialogues and advice for various cases (e.g., a man of the higher nobility speaking with a woman of the middle class, love of nuns, love of prostitutes, etc.).
Andreas gives the 31 Rules of Love, discusses rejection, and then wraps up with a complete retraction of the work.
Perhaps Andreas was using the topic of love as a vehicle for his own moralizing.

 Andreas and the Ambiguity of Courtly Love Comparative Literature - Find Articles
Paolo Cherchi re-examines the much-discussed question of the relationship between Andreas Capellanus's De amore and the poetry of the Provencal troubadours.
Cherchi suggests that Andreas attacked courtly love because he failed to recognize the importance of mezura, to which Cherchi devotes the second of his three chapters.
A reader who remains unconvinced by Cherchi's thesis that Andreas is an enemy rather than a defender of courtly love will nevertheless find much to admire in his book, which offers fresh insights into the distinctive qualities of troubadour songs.

 Andreas Cappellanus (general note)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Andreas Capellanus' De amore is the most influential handbook on love written in the middle ages.
Andreas based his ideas mainly on Ovid's Art of Love, Amours, and (in Book III), Remedy of Love, though it may be that he sometimes misunderstood his master and took as earnest what Ovid intended as jest.
Nothing is known of Andreas' life; it is assumed he was a chaplain in the court of Count Henry of Troy, whose wife, the Countess Marie, is named by Chrétien as the patron of his Lancelot.

Their relationship is heterosexual, thus abiding by one of Capellanus’ basic rules, that courtly love can only exist between opposite genders because they must have the ability to give “each other the exchanges of love”, or vaginal sex.
Capellanus also states that “nothing which a lover gets from his beloved is pleasing unless she gives it of her own free will” (31).
Capellanus makes this warning because a highly passionate lover can cheat on their lover, or take on a lover for the use of sexual pleasure, not for true courtly love.

 ORB: The Online Reference Book for Medieval Studies
Little is known of Andreas Capellanus, "Andrew the Chaplain," except that he was connected with the court of Marie de France in the second half of the twelfth century.
Andreas says that no man should seek the love of a nun, and that if any man did "he would deserve to be despised by everybody and he ought to be avoided as an abominable beast." For men of the clergy, however, it is somewhat different.
Andreas says that no cleric should look for love because he is "bound to renounce absolutely all the delights of the flesh and to keep himself free from all bodily filth." On the other hand,

 Andreas Capellanus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Andreas Capellanus (Capellanus meaning "chaplain") was the 12th century author of a treatise commonly entitled De amore ("On Love"), and often known in English as The Art of Courtly Love.
Nothing is known of Andreas Capellanus's life, but he is presumed to have been a courtier of Marie of Troyes, and probably of French origin; he sometimes known by a French translation of his name, André le Chapelain.

 Study Guide for The Art of Courtly Love
Parry published his translation in 1941, and since then other scholars have expressed opposite and compromising positions, some seeing the treatise as “humorous or ironic” (see Don A. Monson, “Andreas Capellanus and the Problem of Irony,” Speculum 64 [1988]: 539-72; you can find the article in Jstor, http://www.jstor.org/).
If the medieval reader read the text ironically, what then is the modern reader to understand from the text?
One scholar argues that the text teaches readers “strategies for reading poetic works about love” (Peter L. Allen, “Ars Amandi, Ars Legendi: Love Poetry and Literary Theory in Ovid, Andreas Capellanus, and Jean de Meun,” Exemplaria 1.1 (Spring 1989): 181-205).
