Three other counts d' Orange bore name of Raimbaut , of which one became one of the heroes of Jerusalem delivered of the Tasse. It crossed in 1097, entered by the breach Jerusalem in 1099, and died in Palestine in 1115. A statue was set up to him in 1846 on the public place of Orange.
Raimbaut d' Orange seems to have carried on its poetic activity between 1160 and 1173. What thus places it, chronologically, immediately after the first generation of Troubadour S, at the beginning of what one could call, with Joseph Anglade, the traditional age of lyric the Occitane , i.e. at the moment when, after Guillaume IX of Aquitaine, Cercamon, Jaufré Rudel and Marcabru -- the influence of this last is manifest besides at Raimbaut - lyric the occitane had arrived at a point of maturity and where the need for a renewal, or rather for a deepening of the asset, started to be felt. It is the moment of the “experiments”, it is the beginning of what Robert Lafont and Christian Anatole calls the inflecting of the trobars .
