Title :
Courtly Love as Zero-Sum and Non-Zero-Sum Game [applies Foster's theory of limited good in peasant societies to the efforts the troubadour makes for his usually unobtainable lady; the author briefly considers the debate poem, the "partimen," as an example of the opposite situation, the non-zero-sum game].
