On 3 May 1386 Germ deGontaut with Ramon Galbarra judged a partimen poetic debate between Jacme Rovira and Bernat de Palaol for the Consistori del Gay Saber . The subject of the debate was this there was a young lord who loved a young lady who did not return the love, yet there was another young lady, of equal worth, who loved him deeply but to whom he was unattracted to which of these should he devote his service? Bernat defended the second lady, but the judges found in favour of Jacme and the first lady the lord, they said, ought to devote himself to the one he truly loves, not the one who truly loves him. The judges decision was given in verse, in a serious tone completely unbefitting the lighthearted nature of the contest. References Mart n de Riquer Riquer, Mart n de 1964 .

Louis Armand, Baronde Lahontan 9 June 1666 &ndash prior to 1716 served in the France French military in Canada where traveled extensively in the Wisconsin and Minnesota region and the upper Mississippi Valley . Upon his return to Europe he wrote an enormously popular travelogue. In it he embellished his knowledge of the geography of the Great Lakes region and created several fictions. The immense popularity of the book resulted in his distorted cartography being accepted by several eminent cartographers who incorporated the Lahontan concepts into most of the maps of the 18th century. He was born into the aristocracy and inherited the title Baron Lahontan upon his father s death in 1674. Through family influence, he joined the French Marine Corps and was sent to New France in 1683. He quickly learned the Indian languages and became adept in wilderness survival. He was sent to command Fort St. Joseph , near the present site of Port Huron, Michigan . He was a restless commander and spent much of his time exploring the region. In 1688 he joined a party of Chippewa Indians in a raid on the Iroquois and later abandoned his fort and went to Michilimackinac . During the following winter he explored the upper Mississippi valley where he allegedly discovered the Longue River . After several other adventures, including a successful attack on five English frigates in the Gulf of St. Lawrence , he eventually deserted the French military and returned to Europe.
