In The Troubadours, ed. Gaunt et al. pp. 127-140 p.128 the identity of the first native troubadour in Italy is disputed; Italian birth of Peire de la Caravana is uncertain, his Guelph harangue ‘D’un sirvente faire’ dated 1194-1195; Bec 2004:121 le premier en date des troubadours italiens (son sirventes {334,1} soit du printemps 1157 quand une armée de Fréd. Barberousse traversa le Brenner et occupa une partie de lItalie du nord, soit printemps 1194, quand l'empereur Henri IV se proposait d'envahir l'Italie ; BEdT 2008-05-28 generazione: 3 (?), grafie del nome: Cavarana Da; Garavana Da indice; Caravana IKN2; DBT 385 (1200-1230) generally thought to be Italian from Genoa or Bologna (perhaps same as "Petrus Cavezane" mentioned in 1190s in Annali Bolognesi), or even from Provence (Schultz-Gora); his Italian origin deduced from the anti-imperial tone of his sole poem [1194-1196]; DBT 386 Lejeune and Riquer argued for identifying PCav with "veilletz lombartz" = "Cossezen" mentioned in PAlv, but this pairing now abandoned due to Guida's research; now almost mandatory to identify PCav with "Petrus de Caravana", signatory to peace treaty 1219 between Bologna and Pistoia, living in "quarterio Sancti Proculi", died before 1230; cf. Guida "Ancora sul sirventese di Peire de la Caravana", CN 73 (2013): 73-99; Albert Malaspina disputes with Peire de la Caravana the position of earliest native Italian troubadour.
