pasturel2 (1113-19)

[ hap]

[ FEW: 7,759a pastor; Gdf: 6,35c pastorel; GdfC: 10,293c pastoureau; TL: 7,472 pastorele; DEAF:  pastor (pastorele); DMF:  pastoureau; TLF:  pastoureau; OED:  pastorel n.; MED:  pastorel n.; DMLBS: ]
pastorel, 
pl. pastureaus,  pastureus,  pasturus  

While the FEW includes the sense of 'pastourelle, bucolic song' as a derivation of pastor (7,759a), the DMLBS suggests that this particular sense derives from the adjectival form pastoralis, likely as a result of the abbreviated locution carmen or poema pastorale. We follow the DMLBS in considering the substantive as a derivative of the adjective and include it under pasturel1, while pasturel2 represents a diminutive form of pastor.
