Just as our society delights in citations, quotations, and allusions in myriad contexts, not least in popular song, late medieval poets and composers knew well that such references could greatly enrich their own works. In The Art of the Grafted Song: Citation and Allusion in the Age of Machaut, author Yolanda Plumley explores the penchant for borrowing in chansons and lyrics from fourteenth-century France, uncovering a practice integral to the experiments in form, genre, and style that ushered in a new school of lyric. Working across disciplinary boundaries, Plumley traces creative appropriations in the burgeoning "fixed forms" of this new tradition to build a more intimate understanding of the shared experience of poetry and music in the generations leading up to, and including, Guillaume de Machaut. Exploring familiar and less studied collections of songs as well as lyrics without music, this book sheds valuable light on the poetic and musical knowledge of authors and their audiences, and on how poets and composers devised their works and engaged their readers or listeners. It presents fresh insights into when and in which milieus the classic Ars nova polyphonic chanson took root and flourished, and into the artistic networks of which Machaut formed a part. As Plumley reveals, old songs lingered alongside the new in the collective imagination well beyond what the written sources imply, reminding us of the continued importance of memory and orality in this age of increasing literacy. The first detailed study of citational practice in the French fourteenth-century song-writing tradition, The Art of Grafted Song will appeal to students and scholars of medieval French music and literature, cultural historians, and others interested in the historical and social context of music and poetry in the late Middle Ages [Publisher description]

Fourteenth-century France witnessed the emergence of a new school of lyric, as the so-called formes fixes crystallized and the Ars nova revolutionized musical practice. Charting the emergence of this new lyric order from ca. 1300 to ca. 1380, The Art of Grafted Song demonstrates that despite these new departures, the long-established principle of borrowing within French lyric continued to inspire poets and composers. Cutting across disciplinary boundaries, this study traces citation, quotation, allusion, and other kinds of appropriations in fourteenth-century lyrics with and without music to build a more intimate understanding of song at this time and of the shared experience of poetry and music. It argues that citational practice was integral to experiments in form, genre, and style that gave rise to the new tradition. Exploring textual and musical reminiscences enhances our understanding of how poets and composers devised their works and engaged one another and their audiences in formal contests or puys and in informal lyric displays, and casts light on the reception and circulation of individual works. It also provides valuable clues about when, where, and in which milieus the polyphonic chanson and its sister lyric forms emerged and flourished. It reveals that older works often persisted longer in the shared imagination than we tend to suppose; we learn, too, about attitudes to authorship and the importance of memory in this age of literacy. All this enables us to better contextualize the contribution of Guillaume de Machaut, who is traditionally viewed as the great pioneer of lyric composition in this period, shedding light on his compositional process, on what he learned from his predecessors, and how he honed his art in response to his contemporaries
