Jaufre de Pons

[1] He composed tensos with his castellan, Rainaut de Pons.

[2] Jaufre's part in the debate consists in asking plain youthful questions about love only to receive the bitter and experienced answers of Guiraut in proverbial form.

[3] Jaufre was probably the husband of Isabeau, daughter of Henry II of Rodez, a patron of troubadours.

Some scholars have suspected that there were more than one Jaufre de Pons (one from the Saintonge and another from the Toulousain).

There were several Jaufres who were lords of Pons, so identifying the troubadour among them or their relatives is difficult based on the slender documentation.
