• Resumen

  • The term mixtûre, adopted from the Latin mixtura and used to describe Petitcreiu’s blend of colours, provides a key to the lovers’ interpretative engagement with this enigmatic dog. If the dog is also understood as an allegory for the poem, mixtûre is to be related to medieval music theory and to the concepts of harmony and order which are an essential part of Gottfried’s poetics.
