"Giovanni Boccaccio geboren 16. Juni 1313 in Certaldo oder Florenz; gestorben 21. Dezember 1375 in Certaldo war ein italienischer Schriftsteller Dichter und bedeutender Vertreter des frühen Renaissance-Humanismus. Sein Hauptwerk das einhundert Novellen umfassende Decamerone porträtiert die facettenreiche Gesellschaft des 14. Jahrhunderts und erhebt ihn zum Begründer der prosaischen Erzähltradition in Europa. . Giovanni Boccaccio wurde von der Nachwelt unterschiedlich bewertet wobei positive Rezeptionen durch relevante Betrachter überwiegen. So lobten ihn Francesco de Sanctis Friedrich Theodor Vischer und Vladimiro Macchi dafür das Mittelalter in der Literatur überwunden zu haben. Letzterer sah in Boccaccio den bedeutendsten italienischen Novellisten und sein Schaffen als Beginn der 'Blütezeit der italienischen Novelle'. De Sanctis verglich den Dichter in seiner Geschichte der italienischen Literatur 1870 mit Voltaire." Wikipedia Außerhalb der EU höhere Versandkosten !

1825SET19-C-6London: William Pickering 1825. First edition. Cloth. Fair. 9" by 5.5". Thomas Stothard. A scarce first edition set of 'The Decameron' by Giovanni Boccaccio illustrated with ten plates by the famous English illustrator and engraver Thomas Stothard. Collated: Complete in three volumes with the 10 Stothard Plates. First edition with an introduction by Ugo Foscolo or Niccolò Foscolo a noted Italian writer and poet. Scarce. Giovanni Boccaccio was an Italian author and poet a friend student and correspondent of Petrarch an important Renaissance humanist and the author of a number of notable works including 'The Decameron' 'On Famous Women' and his poetry in the Italian vernacular. Boccaccio is particularly notable for his dialogue of which it has been said that it surpasses in verisimilitude that of virtually all of his contemporaries since they were medieval writers and often followed formulaic models for character and plot. 'The Decameron' with the subtitle of 'Prince Galehaut' is a 14th-century medieval allegory by Giovanni Boccaccio told as a frame story encompassing 100 tales by ten young people. Boccaccio probably began composing the work in 1350 and finished it in 1351 or 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 import it documents life in 14th-century Italy.

Private library blindstamp on the rear flyleaf. Binding with light wear and corners just worn through two light abrasions on each of the pastedowns hinges starting but sound and front fly with a short split and a handful of pages with bumps or small creases in the top corners still a bright very good copy. A curious volume; beneath the front pastedown opened on three sides still attached on the fourth and facing the raw cardboard of the front cover is a printed publisher's ad for German editions of three volumes: the Decameron Casanova's Memoirs; and Jean-Baptiste Louvet de Couvray's The Loves of the Knight Faublas. There is a possibility that the ad was used as waste paper but the way the ad opened and the mildly salacious nature of the three books makes us wonder if it is in fact a clandestine ad Alois Hynek hardcover
