Giovanni Boccaccio
Das Decameron
Bertelsmann Lesering 1962. Halbleder. Mit seinem Hauptwerk einem der bedeutendsten Sch�pfungen der Literatur schuf Giovanni Boccaccio das Ur- und Vorbild aller Novellensammlungen des Abendlands aus dessen reicher Quelle Generationen von Dramatikern und Erz�hlern sch�pften. Die besondere Leistung Boccaccios ist aber vor allem in der Legitimierung der sinnlichen Liebe und des erotischen Instinkts zu sehen die Das Dekameron von der mittelalterlichen und von der antiken Tradition abgrenzt und lange Zeit un�bertroffen blieb. Inhalt: Das Dekameron enth�lt �hundert Geschichten Fabeln Parabeln oder wirkliche Begebenheiten� so Boccaccio �die zur verderblichen Zeit der letzten Pest von sieben Damen und drei jungen M�nnern erz�hlt wurden�. Den Namen Dekameron bildete Boccaccio aus den griechischen W�rtern deka zehn und hemera Tag. Zehn junge Adelige erz�hlen an zehn Tagen jeweils zehn Geschichten. Mit der alten heiligen Zahl Zehn war Boccaccio durch das ptolem�ische Himmelssystem vertraut in ihrem symbolischen Bezug kannte er sie aus R Dantes G�ttlicher Kom�die mit ihren 100 Ges�ngen. Jeden Tag wird einer der Teilnehmer zum K�nig oder zur K�nigin gew�hlt und legt ein Leitthema fest zu dem jeder eine Geschichte erz�hlen soll. Nur am ersten Tag an dem das Reglement noch nicht befolgt wird und am neunten Tag an dem man von ihm ausruhen will wird kein Leitthema bestimmt. Nach dem zehnten Tag wird einstimmig beschlossen dass die Gesellschaft ins pestverseuchte Florenz heimkehrt. Die 100 ernsten und heiteren erbaulichen und frivolen Geschichten sind in eine Rahmenerz�hlung � Florentiner Adelige fliehen vor der Pest auf ein Landgut � kunstvoll eingeflochten. Boccaccio verleiht dem Werk trotz seiner Mannigfaltigkeit eine Einheit. Ist die Gattung der Rahmenerz�hlung aus dem Orient seit Jahrhunderten bekannt so brachte Boccaccio sie in Europa als Erster zu klassischer Vollkommenheit. Der Rahmen dient nicht rein �sthetischen und Kompositionsaspekten sondern bildet den Hintergrund f�r treffende Gesellschafts- und Landschaftsschilderungen. Lebensprall sind seine amour�sen Szenen deren Sprache trotz ihrer schwankhaften drastischen Derbheit nie lasziv sondern in ihrer sinnlichen Direktheit bisweilen komisch wirkt. Neben frivolen Szenen wird auch das Bild aufopferungsvoller Liebe wie in der Geschichte von Griselda heraufbeschworen die trotz Qualen dem Geliebten treu bleibt. Wirkung: Das Dekameron beeinflusste in seiner kunstvollen und doch lebensnahen Erscheinungsform nachhaltig die abendl�ndische Literatur und blieb in seiner Form �ber zweieinhalb Jahrhunderte vorbildlich. Erst mit den Exemplarischen Novellen von Miguel de R Cervantes trat ein neues Leitbild auf den Plan. Doch wirkte Boccaccios Meisterwerk auch auf die weitere Entwicklung der Gattung. Kurzbeschreibung Das Buch ist ein lebendiges Zeugnis der sinnenfrohen italienischen Renaissance. Zehn Florentiner Adlige die im Pestjahr 1348 aus der Stadt fliehen m�ssen erz�hlen sich Geschichten um sich die Zeit zu vertreiben. Ein anmutiges Spiel um die Verwandlungen des Eros und eine humorvolle Absage an alle Duckm�userei und Engherzigkeit. Mit 50 Holzschnitten von Fritz Richter fast wie neu! Bertelsmann Lesering unknown

Giovanni Boccaccio.
de Casibus Illustrium Virorum: A Facsimile Reproduction of the Paris Edition of 1520.
Gainesville FL Scholars' Facsimiles & Reprint 1962. Hardcover Reprint Edition 1962. Very Near Fine: the outside edge of some pages show a bit of tanning; shows only the most minute indications of use: the binding shows barely discernible lean but remains secure; the text is clean. Very close to 'As New'. NOT a Remainder Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. 242pp. Introduction by Louis Brewer Hall. Reprint Edition 1962. Hardback: Lacks DJ. De Casibus Virorum Illustrium On the Fates of Famous Men is a work of 56 biographies in Latin prose composed by the Florentine poet Giovanni Boccaccio of Certaldo in the form of moral stories of the falls of famous people similar to his work of 106 biographies On Famous Women. De casibus is an encyclopedia of historical biography and a part of the classical tradition of historiography. It deals with the fortunes and calamities of famous people starting with the biblical Adam going to mythological and ancient people then to people of Boccaccio's own time in the fourteenth century. The work was so successful it spawned what has been referred to as the De casibus tradition influencing many other famous authors such as Geoffrey Chaucer John Lydgate and Laurent de Premierfait. De casibus also inspired character figures in works like The Canterbury Tales The Monk's Tale the Fall of Princes c. 1438 Des cas de nobles hommes et femmes c. 1409 and Caida de principles a fifteenth-century Spanish collection and A Mirror for Magistrates a very popular sixteenth-century continuation written by William Baldwin and others. Boccaccio wrote the core of his work from about 1355 to 1360 with revisions and modifications up to 1374. For almost four hundred years this work was the better known of his material. The forceful written periodic Latin work was far more widely read then the now famous vernacular Tuscan/Italian tales of Decameron. The Renaissance period saw the secular biography development which was spearheaded partly by the success of this work being a stimulus and driving force of the new biography-moral genre. Boccaccio's perspective focuses on the disastro awaiting all who are too favored by luck and on the inevitable catastrophes awaiting those with great fortune. He offers a moral commentary on overcoming misfortune by adhering to virtue through a moral God's world. Here the monastic chronicle tradition combines with the classical ideas of Senecan tragedy. De casibus stems from the tradition of exemplary literature works about famous people. It showed with the lives of these people that it was not only biographies but snapshots of their moral virtues. Boccaccio relates biographies of famous people that were at the height of happiness and fell to misfortune when they least expected it. This sad event is sometimes referred to as a "de casibus tragedy" after this work. William Shakespeare created characters based on this phenomenon as did Christopher Marlowe.
