K. Bartsch, _Grundriss zur Geschichte der provenzalischen Literatur_, Elberfeld, 1872. A new edition of this indispensable work is in preparation by Prof. A. Pillet of Breslau. The first part of the book contains a sketch of Provencal literature, and a list of ma.n.u.scripts.
The second part gives a list of the troubadours in alphabetical order, with the lyric poems attributed to each troubadour. The first line of each poem is quoted and followed by a list of the MSS. in which it is found. Modern editors have generally agreed to follow these lists in referring to troubadour lyrics: e.g. B. Gr., 202, 4 refers to the fourth lyric (in alphabetical order) of Guillem Ademar, who is no. 202 in Bartsch's list.
A list of corrections to this list is given by Grober in Bohmer's _Romanische Studien_, vol. ii. 1875-77, Stra.s.sburg. In vol. ix. of the same is Grobers' study of troubadour MSS. and the relations between them.
A. Stimming, _Provenzaliscke Literatur in Grober's Grundriss der Romanischen Philologie_, Stra.s.sburg, 1888, vol. ii. part ii. contains useful bibliographical notices.

J. H. Smith, _The troubadours at Home_, 2 vols., New York, 1899; popularises scientific knowledge by impressions of travel in Southern France, photographs, and historical imagination: generally stimulating and suggestive, Most histories of French literature devote some s.p.a.ce to Provencal; e.g. Suchier & Birch-Hirschfeld, _Geschichte der franzosischen Litteratur_, Leipsic, 1900. The works of Millot and Fauriel are now somewhat antiquated. _Trobador Poets_, Barbara Smythe, London, 1911, contains an introduction and translations from various troubadours.
