Question: What nationality is Dalfi D'Alvernha's father?

Knowledge 1: Dalfi d'Alvernha
Dalfi d'Alvernha  was the Count of Clermont and Montferrand, a troubadour and a patron of troubadours.He was born around 1150 and died in 1234 or 1235.He is sometimes called Robert IV, but there is no solid evidence for the name Robert, and the name can cause confusion, since his first cousin once removed was Robert IV, Count of Auvergne, who died in 1194.Dalfi d'Alvernha was the son of William VII the Young of Auvergne, Count of Clermont, and of Jeanne de .He married Guillemette de Comborn, Countess of Montferrand, daughter of Archambaud, Viscount of Comborn, and Jourdaine of Périgord.Their children were Aélis, Guillaume(William, later Count of Clermont), Blanche, and Alix.Troubadours who worked with Dalfi or sang at his court include Peirol, Perdigon, Peire de Maensac, Gaucelm Faidit, and Uc de Saint Circ; his cousin, bishop Robert of Clermont, exchanged satirical and erotic verses with him, as did Richard Coeur de Lion.One "partimen" between Dauphin and Perdigon marks a stage in the poetical debate, begun by Guilhem de Saint-Leidier and taken up by Azalais de Porcairagues and Raimbaut of Orange, as to whether a lady is dishonoured by taking a lover who is richer than herself.A "tensó" on the same subject was composed by Guiraut de Bornelh and king Alfonso II of Aragon. [SEP] Knowledge 2: William VII the Young of Auvergne
William VII "the Young" of Auvergne was a Count of the region of Auvergne, France during the years 1145–1168.He accompanied the French king, Louis VII, on the Second Crusade.William was the first Count of Auvergne to be given the title Dauphin (Prince).What is by convenience called the dauphinate of Auvergne was in reality the remnant of the county of Auvergne after the usurpation of William VII around 1155 by his uncle, William VIII the Old.The young count was able to maintain his status in part of his county, especially Beaumont, Chamalières, and Montferrand.Some authors have therefore named William VII and his descendants "counts of Clermont" (although this risks confusion with the county of Clermont in Beauvaisais and the episcopal county of Clermont in Auvergne).The majority of authors, however, anticipating the formalization of the dauphinate in 1302, choose to call William VII and his successors the dauphins of Auvergne.Still others, out of convenience, choose to call these successors the "counts-dauphins of Auvergne."The title of dauphin of Auvergne was derived from William VII's mother, who was the daughter of the Dauphin de Viennois, Guigues IV.This meant that William VII's male descendants were usually given "Dauphin" as a second name.

[SEP] Knowledge 2: Perdigon
Perdigon or Perdigo( fl. 1190– 1220) was a troubadour from Lespéron, diocese of Gévaudan( actually in the department of Ardèche next to modern Lozère).Fourteen of his works survive, including three" cansos" with melodies.He was respected and admired by contemporaries, judging by the widespread inclusion of his work in chansonniers and in citations by other troubadours.Though his biography is made confounding by contradicting statements in his" vida" and allusions in his and others' poems, Perdigon's status as a jongleur from youth and an accomplished fiddler is well- attested in contemporary works( by him and others) and manuscript illustrations depicting him with his fiddle.Perdigon travelled widely and was patronised by Dalfi d' Alvernha, the Baux, Peter II of Aragon, and Barral of Marseille.His service to the latter provides an early definite date for his career, as Barral died in 1192 and Perdigon composed a" canso" — which survives with music—for him.According to his" vida", Perdigon was the son of a poor fisherman who excelled through his" wit and inventiveness" to honour and fame, was clothed and eventually armed, knighted, and granted land and rent by Dalfi d'Alvernha.After this period of his life, which is said to have lasted a long time, the manuscripts of his" vida" diverge.According to one version, death deprived him of his friends, male and female, and so he lost his position and entered a Cistercian monastery, where he died.That he entered a Cistercian monastery has never been proven, but has received some support from two of his works.According to another version of his" vida", he became a strong opponent of Catharism- an anti-Catholic sect- and supported the Albigensian Crusade.He is said to have accompanied Guillem des Baux, Folquet de Marselha, and the Abbot of Cîteaux to Rome to oppose Raymond VI of Toulouse after the latter's excommunication in 1208.The author of the" vida" blames Perdigon for"[ bringing] about and[ arranging] all these deeds."The biographer further claims that Perdigon sang to the populace to encourage the Crusade and even boasted of humiliating Peter II of Aragon who opposed the Crusades and died at the Battle of Muret fighting against the Crusaders.For this reason he became despised by those in favor of Catharism, and due to the war lost all his friends who fought in it: Simon de Montfort, Guillem des Baux, and many others.In the end, the son of Dalfi d' Alvernha, abandoned him, confiscated his land, and sent him away.The biographer claims that he went to Lambert de Monteil and begged to be entered into the Cistercian monastery of" Silvabela", but the author incorrectly believes Lambert to be the son-in- law of Guillem des Baux, and the monastery Silvabela(" beautiful forest") never existed.His" vidas" are questionable.Among Perdigon's surviving songs is a" torneyamen" with Raimbaut de Vaqueiras and Ademar de Peiteus.Unusually for the period, Perdigon, along with Aimeric de Peguilhan, through- composed his melodies.
