In my response on Coursework, I mentioned the "Femme Fatale." I think there are different definitions for what this means, but I always think of "Killer Queen" by Queen when I think of a "Femme Fatale" figure. What I want to get out of posting this song is just how the woman in the song is preoccupied by her own business. That doesn't relate entirely to either pastorela by Marcabru, but perhaps it's a launching point for further discussion.
