Viaggio d’Oltremare e libro di novelle e di bel parlar gentile

The codex Panciatichiano-Palatino 32 from the National Library in Florence is the oldest manuscript of the Novellino. It is the first Italian attempt to compile an organic collection of novellas, and it precedes the famous work by Boccaccio by several decades. This work represents a true-to-the original transcription of the entire manuscript with a detailed analysis of the abbreviations and graphic symbols.
