ANDRIEU CONTREDIT D’ARRAS
(d. 1248?). Author of twenty-three conventional songs, with the melody extant for
eighteen, including twenty love songs, one lai, one pastourelle, and one jeu-parti, written
with Guillaume le Vinier. Andrieu is cited in the royal accounts for 1239 as a soldier-poet
who enlisted as a crusader, although no evidence exists to prove that he actually went to
Jerusalem.

ANGERS
. Situated on both banks of the River Maine, five miles north of its confluence with the
Loire, Angers (Maine-et-Loire) is rich in monuments exhibiting a Gothic style, Angevin
Gothic, that is quite different from the Early and High Gothic of the Île-de-France.
Besides the famous 14th-century tapestries of the Apocalypse exhibited inside the castle,
Angers has a series of buildings that reveal both the uniqueness and the quality of this
local, western French style and its evolution over a span of a hundred years.
Angers had long been governed by the counts of Anjou, some of whom had been
dukes of Normandy and Aquitaine, counts of Brittany, and kings of England. Geoffroi IV
Plantagenêt was the father of King Henry II of England, who was the husband of Eleanor
of Aquitaine and father of Richard I the Lionhearted. In 1204, Angers surrendered to the
Capetian king Philip II Augustus, and later in the century Louis IX had vast walls built to
protect Angers. These walls were flattened to create the boulevards surrounding the city.
