Joyos de Tolosa


Joyos de Tolosa, whose first named is also spelled Joios, was a troubadour from Toulouse. He has left behind only one pastorela, "L'autr' ier el dous tems de Pascor", in which he names himself as the author. It is three coblas in length and mirrors the poem "Lantelm, qui·us onra ni·us acuoill" by Lanfranc Cigala in structure. Joyos' knight compains to the shepherdess of the mistreatment he receives at the hands of his lady.
