20Rebhorn deserves our gratitude for an eminently persuasive
translation. . . . I celebrate his accomplishment.2113Edith
Grossman The year is 1348. The Black Death has begun to
ravage Europe. Ten young Florentines13seven women and
three men13escape the plague-infested city and retreat to the
countryside around Fiesole. At their leisure in this isolated and
bucolic setting, they spend ten days telling each other
stories13tales of romance, tragedy, comedy, and farce13one
hundred in all. The result, called by one critic the greatest short
story collection of all time (Leonard Barkan, Princeton
University) is a rich and entertaining celebration of the medley
of medieval life. Witty, earthy, and filled with bawdy
irreverence, the one hundred stories of The Decameron offer
more than simple escapism they are also a life-affirming balm
for trying times. The Decameron is a joyously comic book that
has earned its place in world literature not just because it
makes us laugh, but more importantly because it shows us
how essential laughter is to the human condition.Published on
the 700th anniversary of Boccaccio17s birth, Wayne A.
Rebhorn's new translation of The Decameron introduces a
generation of readers to this rich late-medieval feast in a lively,
contemporary, American-inflected English (Stephen
Greenblatt, Harvard University) even as it retains the distinctly
medieval flavor of Boccaccio's rhetorically expressive prose.An
extensive introduction provides useful details about
Boccaccio's historical and cultural milieu, the themes and
particularities of the text, and the lines of influence flowing into
and out of this towering monument of world literature.
