It was also an important literary language, especially in the the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. In particular, it was the language of the troubadours. A knowledge of the language is, therefore, of great value to medievalists, students of literature and those interested in Romance languages. Charles Hall Grandgent was a professor at Harvard from 1896 to 1932. He was highly regarded as a Romance linguist and authority on Dante. He was also a leading expert on American English dialects. |
