Giovanni Boccaccio was an Italian author and poet a friend student and correspondent of Petrarch an important Renaissance humanist and the author of a number of notable works including 'The Decameron' 'On Famous Women' and his poetry in the Italian vernacular. Boccaccio is particularly notable for his dialogue of which it has been said that it surpasses in verisimilitude that of virtually all of his contemporaries since they were medieval writers and often followed formulaic models for character and plot. 'The Decameron' with the subtitle of 'Prince Galehaut' is a 14th-century medieval allegory by Giovanni Boccaccio told as a frame story encompassing 100 tales by ten young people. Boccaccio probably began composing the work in 1350 and finished it in 1351 or 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 import it documents life in 14th-century Italy.
