2.The Decameron (Penguin Classics)The Decameron (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
A wonderful work, these refreshing pieces have a verve that is hard to find in medieval literature. Irate Italians who complain of Chaucer stealing from Boccaccio should consider medieval thought on authority and originality. A complex collection, rightfully earning its place as one of Italy's... more info

from Hesperus Press
Price: $11.86

Customer Review:

Even more importantly, it's written by Giovanni Boccaccio, one of the great luminaries of Italian literature. As far as I know, no other biography written... more info
