1951294441951. Paris Editions Rombaldi 1951. Un vol. au format pt in-8 203 x 153 mm de 187 pp. Reliure de l'ÂŽpoque de demi-basane ÂŽmeraude double filet ˆ froid portÂŽ sur les plats dos ˆ nerfs ornÂŽ de filets gras et maigres ˆ froid cha”nette dorÂŽe sur les nerfs ainsi qu'en tÂte et queue titre dorÂŽ tÂte mouchetÂŽe couvertures conservÂŽes. Un des exemplaires numÂŽrotÂŽs du tirage sur vÂŽlin crÂme des papeteries de Rives. Il s'agrÂŽmente de jolies compositions ˆ pleine-page de Jean Gradassi ; rehaussÂŽes au pochoir par Edmond Vairel. ''PassionnÂŽ d'Histoire Jean Gradassi se spÂŽcialise dans cet art difficile qu'est l'illustration et pour lequel l'ÂŽtude des costumes civils et militaires de l'architecture du mobilier d'ÂŽpoque sont une base indispensable ˆ sa crÂŽation artistique o chaque dÂŽtail mÂŽrite d'Âtre examinÂŽ ˆ la loupe. Quand on sait avec quelle minutie et quel souci du dÂŽtail chaque architecture chaque costume chaque personnage sont mis au point et avec quelle Ç maestria È dans la couleur il parvient ˆ faire vivre toutes ces scÂnes spirituelles et animÂŽes on est transportÂŽ d'admiration pour son art''. Cette Ãuvre allÂŽgorique mÂŽdiÂŽvale est cÂŽlÂbre pour ses rÂŽcits de dÂŽbauche amoureuse dont la gamme va de l'ÂŽrotique au tragique. Le DÂŽcamÂŽron fut rÂŽdigÂŽe en italien et non en latin comme il ÂŽtait courant de le faire ˆ l'ÂŽpoque donnant ainsi naissance de la prose italienne qui marqua le genre de la nouvelle dÂs la Renaissance. La plupart des personnages qui parsÂment le rÂŽcit font peu de cas des valeurs morales de l'ƒglise. Ce tableau ''sociologique'' dressÂŽ par Boccace constitue le reflet de la nouvelle sociÂŽtÂŽ bourgeoise de l'ÂŽpoque dont les valeurs pratiques l'emportent sur l'ordre ancien chevaleresque et aristocratique. Empreint d'ÂŽlÂŽgance et de courtoisie fondÂŽs sur la dignitÂŽ le bon gožt et le respect ces contes sont aussi l'occasion pour Boccace de tracer une esquisse d'un idÂŽal de vie et traitent principalement du thÂme de l'amour aussi bien courtois que vulgaire.
