Aude

Aude (French: [od]; Occitan: [ˈawðe]) is a department in south-central France named after the river Aude. The local council also calls the department "Cathar Country".

Aude is also a frequent feminine French given name in Francophone countries, deriving initially from Aude or Oda, a wife of Bertrand, Duke of Aquitaine, and mother of Saint Hubertus's brother Eudo. Aude was the name of Roland's fiancée in the chansons de geste.

Geography

Location

Aude is located between the Mediterranean Sea and the Pyrenees mountains.

It is part of the current region of Languedoc-Roussillon-Midi-Pyrénées. It is surrounded by the departments of Pyrénées-Orientales, Ariège, Haute-Garonne, Tarn, and Hérault, with the Golfe du Lion on the east.

Natural regions

The countryside in this department falls into several natural regions:

  • 1 – Lauragais
  • 2 – Montagne Noire
  • 3 – Cabardès
  • 4 – Carcassonais
  • 5 – Razès
  • 6 – Quercorb
  • 7 – Pays de Sault
  • 8 – Minervois
  • 9 – Corbières
  • 10 – Narbonnais

    • Landscapes

    Each natural region of the Aude has its own particular landscape. In the east, lagoons or coastal lakes form a barrier between land and sea. These were formed by accumulated sediments brought down by the rivers Aude, Orb and Hérault. There are many such lakes of brackish water. This environment is demanding for flora and fauna, as it suffers from the rigours of sea, sun, dryness and floods. Halophile (i.e., salt-loving) plants grow there and it is also noted for animals such as the pink flamingo and white stilt.

    Aude (character)

    Aude, or Alda, Alde, was the sister of Oliver and betrothed of Roland in The Song of Roland and other chansons de geste. The story of her engagement to Roland is told in Girart de Vienne.

    In The Song of Roland Aude is first mentioned by her brother Oliver when he tells Roland that the two will never be married, when the two counts are arguing before the battle; they are later reconciled, but both die fighting the Saracens. When Charlemagne returns to Aix and informs Aude that Roland has died, she collapses at the Emperor's feet and dies of grief.

    "The Lovely Alda" is part of Edward MacDowell's 1891 orchestral composition, Two Fragments after the Song of Roland.

    Sparks

    by: Kim Wilde

    Written by Ricky & Marty Wilde
    Caught in the times we live in
    Caught in the times we know
    It's taking a real hard line
    You feel you're becoming a number
    Nobody needs your trouble
    Gives you the time of day
    But kicking the world behind
    Won't make it go away
    Cos we're strong
    And we're big enough to take
    Whatever time will bring
    We've only one life
    And we've gotta lot to give
    There's only one time
    And we've got to make or break it
    Let the Sparks fly out again
    Let the feelings tell you when
    Let the Sparks fly out again
    Flick of the fingers
    And they'll cut you down for sure
    You gotta be hard sometimes
    And so you pretend it's nothing
    Finding what to believe in
    That's what it's hard to do
    Boy there was another time
    I saw the best in you
    Cos we're strong
    And we're big enough to take
    Whatever time will bring
