  The French polyphonic tradition of the fourteenth century blossomed earlier than the Italian, perhaps because of its long tradition of polyphony in previous centuries, many sources of which were being copied in the 1300s. This work brings together 27 articles that reflect a broad methodological and chronological span of analysis on the ars nova.
