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.

评分这本书在上学的时候历史书里面给了很高的评价,但是在图书馆里就是借不到,于是我就怀着非常好奇的心理,从网上买了这本书。 我看了之后第一感觉就是,这不就是普普通通的八卦故事么 ,只不过是带上了当地的风土人情,当地人的价值观,为什么不能看呢?我想楼下那帮老太太的聊...
评分说实话,为<十日谈>写小标题,我的第一反应是"很黄很美丽",但为了避免被说是标题党,所以委屈下这本名著,屈就下"很好很强大"吧. 要说这本小说,咽下吐沫,如数家珍呀.与中国的三言二拍合称中西双璧,是我小时候最喜欢看的名著读物了(为维护我的光辉形象,请大家在读物两字后自觉加上"...
评分公司李姐的儿子刚上小学,放寒假老师点名要的书,说看完了要写读后感(寒假作业)。这一堆书里居然有十日谈,我主动提出交换——俺写读后感,白看这本书。 7个富婆级少女,3个帅哥级美男。借着“瘟疫”的东风一起乡间唠嗑。他们欣赏着美景,享受着舒适,体会着浪漫。然后发现...
评分现在在看的是薄伽丘的《十日谈》,吸引我去看,一是因为里面都是小故事性质的,每个故事篇幅不长,带在身边看起来比较方便,另外,更主要就是想看看为何这本名著会在15世纪被视为是禁书,正如当初看洛丽塔时带有的情绪一样。 其实这本书买了很久了,不是不想看,而是以为看不...
