In the grip of the Black Death, ten souls escape to a secluded villa, seeking refuge and solace. Yet, within the villa's walls, a captivating game unfolds. Each night, a tale is spun, weaving a tapestry of love, laughter, and cunning schemes. From bawdy escapades to heart-wrenching tragedies, these stories, shared under the Tuscan sun, become a testament to the enduring human spirit in the face of darkness. "The Decameron" by Giovanni Boccaccio: a timeless collection of narratives, an escape into a world of wit, resilience, and the enduring power of storytelling.
Giovanni Boccaccio
Giovanni Boccaccio (1313-1375) was born and raised in Florence, Italy where he initially studied business and canon law. During his career, he met many aristocrats and scholars who would later influence his literary works. Some of his earliest texts include La caccia di Diana, Il Filostrato and Teseida. Boccaccio was a compelling writer whose prose was influenced by his background and involvement with Renaissance Humanism. Active during the late Middle Ages, he is best known for writing The Decameron and On Famous Women.
