The Decameron Volume 2 | Giovanni Boccaccio (1313 - 1375) | The Decameron is a collection of 100 very readable novellas finished in 1353. It is known for its bawdy tales that span the spectrum from erotic to tragic. The tales are told by a party of ten fleeing the black plague, on each of 10 days they each tell a tale on a particular theme. The stories remain compelling for the modern reader while providing a unique window into medieval life. | Download this book (387 KBytes) Search at Barnes & Noble ... | | Others who downloaded this book also downloaded ... |
| Protagoras | Plato (427BC - 348BC) | Set in dialogue form, the main players in this work are a young Socrates and an elderly sophist, Protagoras.
