Beatritz de Dia {PC 46}

Person

"la plus ancienne des trobairitz" (DBT erroneamente); PC "wahrscheinlich" daughter of the Dauphin Guigues VI of Viennois; CC Biog 344-5 probablement Beatrix, femme de Guillaume II de Poitiers [1135-1189], ca 1160; ca. 1160-1170 (?);Taylor 1977 fin du XII; fin XII-début XIII ? (Brunel-L 1997:256); MSS have "la comtessa de Dia"; Jeanroy 1934 I:315 2 fragmentary cansos; MdR identifies two possible women. (i) 1150-1175, si amant du troubadour Raimbaut d'Aurenga 1147-1173 - named Beatrice, but her husband Guilhem I de Poitiers was not the count of Die; or MdR (ii) 1180-1200, si amant de Raimbaut IV d'Aurenga doc. 1198-1214 [grand-nephew of the famous trobador], "possible troubadour" [this woman's name was Isoart (Isoarda), and she was the daughter of the count of Die - but she was not the wife of Guillem de Peitieus]; DOM Sup-1 BeatDia Beatriz de Die 2e m. XII ou 1e m. XIII; Die (Drôme) GRLMA II.1.7.50-51; Bogin 1976 there is no wife of a Guillem de Poitiers who can be construed to have held title to the county of Die (today chef-lieu d'arr., a small town NE of Orange, dep. Drome). There is, however, a Guillem of Poitiers, count of Valentinois, by legend a bastard offshoot of the great house of Poitiers who was married to a lady Beatriz of the Viennois whose son appears to have held the title Count of Dia (source: P. Anselme, 1728 II: 187 ); Guillem of Poitiers was a count, but his title was to Valentinois, and not to Die; GRLMA 2/1/7 (a)46 pour Jeanroy I p313, "Comtesse" pourrait etre , non pas un titre, mais un prénom porté par deux poétesses vivant à un siècle d'intervalle; [Jack Lindsay 1976:188]The tales say she married Guilhem of Poitou but loved Raimbaut. This Guilhem would be the count of 1158-1189 or his grandson who died about 1227. But each man was count of Valentinois, not of Die. The first married a Beatrice, daughter of Guigue IV Dauphin of Viennois, but Guigue could not have handed on to his daughter a title he never bore and which was unused from 1168 to 1307. And the Raimbaut can hardly be the famous poet, though he may have been a nephew who lived in the first half of the XIII c.; BEdT Beatriz de Dia - Comtessa de Dia; BEdT 1999/07/29 biblio Sakari,Aimo,1995, 'Qui étaient la Comtesse de Die et son "amic"?', in _Estudis de lingüística i filologia oferts a Antoni M. Badia i Margarit_, pp.253-267 = Sakari "identifica la "Comtessa de Dia" (046) con Philippa de Faye, moglie di Adémar de Poitiers, conte di Valentinois, ed il suo "amic" con Raimbaut de Vaqueiras (392); discute l'attribuzione di diversi testi"; BS 446 n2, quoting Pattison p27-28: l'amant de la comtesse de Die pourrait avoir été non pas le troubadour mais un de ses petits-neveux, Raimbaut IV d'Aurenga, attesté dès la fin du XII et mort à Montpellier en 1218; GRLMA 2/1/7 (a)46 [p51a] aurait vecu 1219-1235, serait identique à Na Felipa chantée par Arnaut Plagues; 2005-10-21 Janine Monier.
