Aycart del Fossat

Aycart del Fossat

Aycart or Aicart del Fossat or Aicardo de Fossato (fl. 1250–68) was a troubadour from Le Fossat in Ariège. To him are attributed one "sirventes" and a "partimen" with Girard Cavalaz.

The "sirventes" is about the victory of Charles of Anjou over Conradin at the Battle of Tagliacozzo (1268). The "partimen", "Si paradis et enfernz son aital", is a dilemma on the nature of Heaven and Hell (c. 1250). The debaters are known only as "Aicart" and "Girart", but they have long been identified with Aycart and Girard. The "partimen" is preserved in a manuscript from Bergamo, where it has a Latin "razo".
