Peirol or Peiròl[1] (French:[peʁɔl], Occitan:[pejˈɾɔl]; born c. 1160,[2] fl. 1188–1222[3]/1225,[4] died in the 1220s) was an Auvergnat troubadour who wrote mostly cansos of courtly love in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries.[5] Thirty-four surviving poems written in Occitan have been attributed to him;[6] of these, seventeen (sixteen of them love songs) have surviving melodies.[5] He is sometimes called Peirol d'Auvergne or Peiròl d'Auvèrnha,[7] and erroneously Pierol.[8]
^In Occitan, peir (French "pierre") means "stone" and -ol is a diminutive suffix, the name Peirol being understood as the equivalent of "Little Stone" but also "Petit Pierre" (Lil' Peter) or "Pierrot" (Pete or Petey); however, "peiròl" also meant a cauldron or a stove. The Occitan usually write Peiròl with an accented "ò" because "Peirol" would be pronounced [pejru].
