andreas capellanus

Andr le Chapelain, in Latin Andreas Capellanus (Capellanus meaning "chaplain"), was the 12th century author of a treatise entitled De amore (On Love). The complete title of his three-volume work published c. 1185 reads Liber de arte honeste amandi et reprobatione inhonesti amantis (Book of the Art of Loving Nobly and the Reprobation of Dishonourable Love, also known as The Book of Courtly Love). Capellanus is also an important author for our understanding of medival education—a source of much information about the trivium and quadrivium of the period.
