[edit]What on earth does it mean to say that a poem isn't "quite up to metaphysical standards"? Does that belong in this article?
Relation to alba (poetry)
[edit]I think alba is the original langue d'oc name for it, and aubade is the langue d'oïl version, which presumably became more popular after the Albigensian Crusade. Tagelied is the Minnesinger version, and everywhere else seems to use the name aubade. Is that correct? If so, that can be made clearer on all the pages. Rigadoun 18:24, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Larkin poem
[edit]I'd argue that the lover is death as well as life - it's his strange obsession with death he parts with at dawn, not life (yet). Obviously this is in the ironic context of the fact that his base terror is of losing life. I know this isn't the place for literary criticism, I'm just saying it's not clear that it's one or the other. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.28.95.139 (talk) 10:23, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
underwear
[edit]Aubade also is a quite famous underwear manufacturer, cf. aubade.com (which even provides iGoogle modules...) To be mentioned, or not to be mentioned - that is the question... — MFH:Talk 02:55, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
Romeo and Juliet
[edit]Is there some reason that the reference to, quote from, and painting based on Romeo and Juliet were all removed? Granted, the aubade was embedded in a play, but it's still the most famous and often read version of the poetic form, and surely Shakespeare's status as a poet is not in question. I rather liked the pointed relation to one of the most read works in English literature, and I have no idea why such a handy tool of explanation was removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.17.159.144 (talk) 21:27, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
Parting at Morning by Robert Browning
[edit]should this be an example? It sums up aubade rather nicely I think...

From a door or window
[edit]I have reworded the statement that "an aubade is a song from a door or window," as it made it sound as if the door or window was the singer. I haven't been able to access the reference, but surely the idea is "sung by a lover who stands by a door or window, to a sleeping woman." 850 C (talk) 16:16, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
