Vox cantoris is biographical?
Louis 9th the Saint, so called after the canonization
of pope Boniface 8 he has had also a biographical cantoris, he was Jean de Joinville(1228-1317), aristocratic
member and medieval man, it is evident from dates but above all to emphasis
that he used to tell biographical life
of his king; same emphasis that adopted saint Bernard from Chiaravalle in his
book Laus novae militiae, same wit and same way to tell, some step it explicative: “To his food he was extreme moderate, because I have never heard
asked some delicacy to food or drink, as much rich men, but he took that they offered…During
his conversation he was chaste because I have never heard a scurrile world, or
called evil, as now is common…”, therefore we can indirectly know a superman on
medieval version; same sources that mentioned Saint Bernard followed to his
book, he heard cantoris in the places of Italy and Jean has took same told, but
demonstration about his with very celebrative is other step: “He mixed wine to water.
A time he asked me why I didn’t mixed water to wine. I answered that the
doctors has said me that I have the
great head and cold stomach and it didn’t bear the wine to water. But the god
king said me that they have deceived me, because if haven’t made it during my
youth and I have made it during old age the gout would take me…”, also the medieval
doctors known that the gout is determined by other and certainly they has said
to Jean, but he though that his king was right. We must consider that Jean come
to his king in 20 age old, therefore he has token by adventure and enthusiastic
participation; furthermore he was very near to king, and we know it because he,
partially credible but we give faith to him, he said: “Some saint worlds that
the god king said to me and other. He fair e loved God over everything, and he
has been favored to all he made…as our God is died to his people, so Saint
Louis has risked his life and he has faced great dangers to people of his reign…”,
certainly bullshits, but we can understand what was with of Jean, he has the 20
age old and enthusiasm, therefore that isn’t from biographical told is evident
to other motives. Certainly it is biographical told is false and solemn alone;
but we can deduce what was spirit of twenty years old during 1248.
