The Decameron by Boccaccio
The naughtiest and wittiest of all medieval tales are presented here in their original English translations along with new translations of the two tales omitted by the 17th-century translator who did not wish to offend his readers' sensitivities. Our readers will be entranced by the tales of unfaithful wives and husbands, dangerous events cunningly avoided and unhappy and scheming lovers as related by young people waiting for the waning of the Great Plague. The author's own revealing Prologue is included in this first complete English edition.
