 Welcome to Medieval Forum | Dinah Hazell
Marie’s lais “codify as a literary genre” and “immortalize” the storytelling tradition that forms the basis of Middle English Breton lays (Laskaya and Salisbury 1), and her Lanval and La Friene were translated and/or adapted in the fourteenth century by English poets.
Marie's audience was probably aristocratic, judging from her level of education and sophistication, as well as an oft-quoted reference to her by a fellow poet, Denis Piramus, who recounts her popularity among "counts, barons, and knights" (Mickel 15).
It is assumed that Marie used the [Tractatus] De Purgatorio Sancti Patricii, dated in the twelfth century and attributed to a Cistercian monk in the abbey at Saltrey.

Though, through close analysis of the Arthurian romances of Chrétien de Troyes, with the knowledge and historical background surrounding the court of Champagne as a backdrop, it becomes apparent that the troubadours did have an enormous influence.
Drawing on women poets such as Comtessa de Dia and Castelloza, Bruckner traces the evolution of the female voice in troubadour lyrics from its conception in early thirteenth-century Provençe to its zenith under the court of Marie de Champagne.
The majority of this source uses Guilhem de Peitieus as a cornerstone on which to build an argument, for he was the early pioneer of the passionate lyric form.

 Tradition at Taittinger - Sep. 18, 1998
     Champagne is exclusive to a 75,000 acre region in northeastern France.
The top champagnes are the prestige cuvees -- the peak of the crop -- followed by the vintages in which grapes from the same year are blended, and then the non-vintage bruts in which grapes and years are mixed.
     To celebrate champagne and, as Taittinger puts it, "relate the heart of making wine with the hearts of the painters," the chateau commissions contemporary artists to apply their creativity to a champagne bottle every other year [1.84M Quicktime movie].
