Over the past three decades, musicologists have documented the important role that the body plays in musical practices and the important role played by music in constructions of the body. Thirteenth-century musical practices are no exception. This paper explores the centrality of the body to the aesthetics of thirteenth-century song, positing that music often had a violent relation to the body of the singer and his or her listeners.
