The Decameron of Giovanni Boccaccio (Il Boccaccio): Now First Completely Done Into English Prose and Verse; Volume 2

Naughty, bawdy and newly repackaged, this medieval masterpiece is set against the background of the Black Death of 1348. The hundred linked tales in Boccaccio's masterpiece are peopled by nobles, knights, nuns, pilgrims, thieves and lovers - both faithful and faithless.
