The Roman de Fauvel describes the career of Fauvel, a horse-like figure whose overweening ambitions lead the writer to lament the evils of the world. He excites the attentions of the rich and powerful, presumes to court Lady Fortune, and provokes all kinds of outrage and grief. His very name is an anagram for Flaterie, Avarice, Vilanie, Variété (fickleness), Envie, and Lacheté (cowardice). A long poetic narrative enlivened by polyphonic and monophonic songs, chants, and pictures, the Roman makes use of allegory and satire to express vehement moral criticism of the late medieval royal court and Church. This is the first modern, critical edition of the monophonic songs collected in the Roman de Fauvel in the early fourteenth century. Samuel N. Rosenberg and Hans Tischler set out to establish and interpret the lyrics and music of all the monophonic pieces, some seventy in all. Accompanying the full poetic and music texts are their English translations from the original Latin and French. This edition represents the kinds of close collaboration between philologist and musicologist that the Fauvel songs call fro but have never before received. Illustrating a wide variety of form and styles—including chivalric love songs, dance pieces, ballades, rondeaux, and nonsense compositions—The Monophonic Songs in the Roman de Fauvel is an extraordinary valuable anthology of music and a treasure trove of information about the period.

Tischler, Hans was born on January 18, 1915 in Wien, Austria. Came to the United States, 1938. Son of Joachim and Gretchen (Spitz) Tischler.
Tischler completed his first Doctor of Philosophy in musicology from the University of Vienna with the dissertation titled Die Harmonik in den Werken Gustav Mahlers (1937). His second Doctor of Philosophy, with a dissertation titled The Motet in 13th Century France, was awarded by Yale University (1942) and was the first to be granted in the United States in Musicology.
One of his grandnephews is the German palaeographer, philologist and historian Matthias M. Tischler. The political situation in Europe forced him to leave Vienna, and he immigrated to the United States of America in 1938. Tischler then enlisted in the United States Army and served from 1943 to 1945 and became a United States citizen.
From 1945 to 1947, he was appointed head of the music department at West Virginia Wesleyan College.
In 1947 he joined the faculty at Roosevelt University in Chicago as Associate Professor of Music where he taught theory and music history. In 1950, he founded the Chicago Chapter of the International Society of Contemporary Music.
Tischler remained at Roosevelt University until 1965 when he was appointed Professor of Musicology at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in Bloomington, where he remained until his retirement in 1985. Tischler was a member and chapter chair of the American Musicological Society and, in 2009, was honored as a member for more than 50 years.
In recognition of Tischler"s life and work, January 18, 2008, was named Hans Tischler Day in Bloomington by Bloomington Mayor Mark Kruzan.
