The Decameron (c.1351) was written in the wake of the Black Death, a shattering epidemic which had shaken Florence's confident entrepreneurial society to its core. In a country villa outside the city, ten young noble men and women who have escaped the plague decide to tell each other stories. Boccaccio's skill as a dramatist is masterfully displayed in this virtuoso performance of one hundred tales, vivid portraits of people from all stations in life, with plots which revel in a bewildering variety of human reactions. Themes are playfully restated from one story to another within an elegant and refined framework. One of Chaucer's most fruitful sources for the Canterbury Tales, Boccaccio's work artfully combines the essential ingredients of narrative: fate and desire, crises and quick-thinking. This new translation by Guido Waldman captures the exuberance and variety and tone of Boccaccio's masterpiece.

評分七女三男,封閉環境,十天,一百個故事。大部分瀆神,小部分誨淫,一些二者得兼。 第四五兩天是講愛情故事,一是悲慘的,一是團圓的。這兩天是本書的弱項。 其他故事主題都BH得很。隻有第十天——講慷慨有點三觀正確,但是其中一些故事還是欲蓋彌彰。比如某國...
評分初1的時候讀瞭這本書感覺自己被忽悠瞭,去找語文老師,老師曰:隻有閱讀人類齷齪的一麵纔能體會到世界的美好。 撞牆中。
評分喬萬尼·薄伽丘(1313~1375),意大利文藝復興運動的傑齣代錶,人文主義者。 在佛羅倫薩的政治鬥爭中,薄伽丘站在共和政府一邊,反對封建貴族勢力,多次作為特使去意大利其他城邦。他潛心研究古典文學,晚年緻力於《神麯》的詮釋。1350年,薄伽丘結識彼特拉剋。 傳奇小說《...
評分可能由於翻譯原因, 文筆不是我喜歡的。 可能由於年代原因, 有些故事不是我喜歡的。 注:名字是我自己取得,原諒我取名無能 Chapter 1信仰 關於信仰的故事還是蠻多的,我比較喜歡的有 (1.2)猶太人猶太教亞伯拉罕皈依天主 這個故事講的是,猶太人亞伯拉罕經不住朋友勸導決...
