Abstract
Medieval chroniclers assessment of the troubadour William IX of Aquitaines (1071-1126) poetry is considered. Reciting his rough jokes in elegant Latin, they give these verses the charm of ancient literary tradition. Despite the negative attitude of the Church to the courtly culture in general, their judgments occasionally reveal sympathy to his talent.
