Item's Code: XR-1929 ABOUT: Very rare and unique, limited & 1st edition, 1891-1892, beautifully illustrated, two volume set of Giovanni Boccaccio's The Decameron", translated into Russian by philologist and academician Aleksander Veselovsky. With illustrations by French artists, such as Baron, Joanneau, Amy, Nanteylya, Granville, Pinot, Girarde, Lepuataven, Poke, Golfeldi, and others. The Decameron (Italian: Decameron [deˈkaːmeron; dekameˈrɔn; dekameˈron] or Decamerone [dekameˈroːne]), subtitled Prince Galehaut (Old Italian: Prencipe Galeotto [ˈprentʃipe ɡaleˈɔtto; ˈprɛntʃipe]), 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 of 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. -------------------------------------------------- "Декамерон" - бессмертное произведение Джованни Боккаччо (1313-1375), - ввел итальянского писателя эпохи Раннего Возрождения в пантеон величайших мастеров мировой литературы. "Декамерон" в переводе с греческого значит "десятидневник". Десять молодых людей в самый разгар страшной чумы 1348 года удаляются в загородную виллу, где в течение десяти дней рассказывают друг другу истории - всего сто историй, или новелл, каждая из которых кладет неповторимый мазок в общую картину итальянской жизни XIV века. Трудно поверить, но актуальность проблем, затронутых автором, за истекший период совершенно не утратила своей значимости: люди по-прежнему ищут большой и чистой любви, совершают необдуманные поступки и не всегда ведут здоровый образ жизни, а самое главное - любят рассказывать, слушать и читать обо всем этом поучительные истории. Книга Боккаччо публикуется в переводе крупнейшего российского филолога академика А.Н. Веселовского. C иллюстрациями французских художников: Барон, Жоанно, Эми, Нантейля, Гранвилля, Пино, Жирардэ, Лепуатвен, Покэ, Гольфельди и др. «Декамеро́н» (итал. Il Decamerone от др.-греч. δέκα «десять» + ἡμέρα «день»: букв. «Десятиднев») — собрание ста новелл итальянского писателя Джованни Боккаччо, одна из самых знаменитых книг раннего итальянского Ренессанса, написанная приблизительно в 1352—1354 годы. Большинство новелл этой книги посвящено теме любви, начиная от её эротического и заканчивая трагическим аспектами. * (see Terms below)- We operate our business from our 2 locations (main one in Pasadena, CA, USA & the 2nd one in overseas), thus, based on the item's availability and/or buyer's location (country), your purchased item will be shipped from either of our offices/storage.
