And Others

The Decameron, also called Prince Galehaut, is a 14th-century medieval allegory by Giovanni Boccaccio, told as a frame story encompassing 100 tales by ten young people. The books primary title exemplifies Boccaccios fondness for Greek philology: Decameron combines two Greek words, Greek: deka (ten) and (Greek: hemera (day), to form a term that means ten-day event. Ten days is the time period in which the characters of the frame story tell their tales.
