Resumo

The poetic universe of João Airas de Santiago does not end with the 81 compositions that have reached us. Following a love song that presents moral sirvent’s characteristics, we will see how the burguês de Santiago reflects on several aspects of human behaviour, drinking from his readings of the Book of Ecclesiastes. The analysis of this remarkable intertextuality intends to show how the presence of biblical thought in the troubadour's texts seems to serve the legitimisation of troubadour’s activity, made possible by love.
