High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Guilhem Ademar (also spelled Guillem, Adamar, or Azemar; fl. 1190/1195-1217) was a troubadour from the G vaudan. Noble by birth, but very poor, he travelled between the courts of Albi, Toulouse, Narbonne, and Spain. He achieved fame enough in his lifetime to be satirised by the Monge de Montaudon. He entered holy orders towards the end of his life. Sixteen poems-fourteen cansos, a sirventes, and a partimen with Eble d'Ussel-form his surviving corpus. His cansos are his most famous pieces. Usually humorous, several mock the poetry of Ademar's more illustrious contemporary Arnaut Daniel. One canso survives with a tune.
