About Alberto Malaspina, il Moro

Albert Malaspina (1160/1165–1206/1212), called Alberto Moro ("the Moor") and lo marches putanier ("the whoring marquess"), was a member of the illustrious Malaspina family. He was a noted troubadour and patron of troubadours. Albert disputes with Peire de la Caravana the position of earliest native Italian troubadour.


-http://www.imalaspina.com/it/histoire-des-malaspina.html - ...Il terzo figlio d’Obizzo, Alberto, detto Moro, rimase in Lombardia, nel valle Staffora, nel castello di Oramala, chiamato Il Nido dei Falchi. Nel 1194, durante la pace con Piacenza, Alberto ottenne il castello di Grandola in Lunigiana. Si sposò con Beatrice, figlia dei potenti marchesi di Monfferrato, la cui bellezza fu celebrata dai trovatori dell’epoca. Alberto fu un signore amato, innamorato di poesia. Ospitò nel suo castello i più famosi trovatori occitani di suo tempo che erano fuggiti dal sud della Francia.
