1620Bv2407<p>The First English Language Edition of Boccaccio"s masterpiece "the dirtiest great book in the Western canon." Two works in one: FIRST ENGLISH EDITION of the second second English edition of the first as virtually always. Quarto. Late 19th-century full dark red morocco gilt raised bands marbled endpapers all edges gilt. Isaac Jaggard 1625 1620. The five year delay of the second volume has summoned various uncertain explanations but by the time it was ready the first printing of the first volume had been exhausted and a new printing produced. No comparable second printing of the second volume has been recorded. The first translation into English of one of the greatest books in all literature to which countless legendary authors -- Shakespeare Chaucer Swift Keats -- are indebted. This anonymous English translation of Boccaccio often ascribed to John Florio is one of a small cluster of imprints to carry the name of Isaac Jaggard joint publisher and printer of Shakespeare's First Folio on the same presses contemporaneous with The First Folio. Described by The New Yorker as "probably the dirtiest great book in the Western canon" The Decameron relates several salacious stories "Wittily discoursed betweene seven Honorable Ladies and three Noble Gentlemen" sheltering in a secluded villa just outside Florence to escape the Black Death tormenting the city. The various tales of love and lust in The Decameron range from the erotic to the tragic. Tales of wit practical jokes and life lessons contribute to the mosaic. In 1559 when the Vatican first produced its Index of Banned Books the Decameron appeared on its first list. The author has even contributed to the Italian language where the word "boccaccesco" we might say "Boccaccio-esque" is used to describe something salacious or lewd. In the end "Boccaccio creates a human panorama of love courage cowardice wit wisdom deceit and folly. If he does not teach the art of living virtuously he does the 'art of living well" Boorstin 266-70. Small ink annotation to front free endpaper pencil bibliographic annotations to first leaf and recto of rear free endpaper the latter signed "Mr. B. Quaritch Ltd". Text generally clean and fresh with only a few spots of light foxing a tiny bit of light marginal dampstaining to a few leaves front inner hinge expertly reinforced. Occasional tiny hole to leaves affecting letters but not sense of text. An excellent copy handsomely bound. Book #Bv2407. $50000.

Boccaccio's masterpiece. Folio 2 volumes bound in full morocco by Riviere gilt titles and tooling to the spine all edges gilt errata leaf at end of volume one B1 is a cancellans woodcut titles each with 6 vignettes 98 woodcut vignettes in text chiefly repeating the title vignettes woodcut initials head- and tail-pieces. In near fine condition. First editions are rare. The Decameron is a collection of novellas by the 14th-century Italian author Giovanni Boccaccio 1313–1375. The book is structured as a frame story containing 100 tales told by a group of seven young women and three young men sheltering in a secluded villa just outside Florence to escape the Black Death which was afflicting the city. Boccaccio probably conceived the Decameron after the epidemic of 1348 and completed it by 1353. The various tales of love in The Decameron range from the erotic to the tragic. Tales of wit practical jokes and life lessons contribute to the mosaic. In addition to its literary value and widespread influence for example on Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales it provides a document of life at the time. Written in the vernacular of the Florentine language it is considered a masterpiece of classical early Italian prose. Isaac Jaggard unknown
