Originally published in 1985, this book contains a full translation
of Giovanni Boccaccio's L'Ameto, alongside textual notes.Giovanni
Boccaccio is famous for his great collection of short stories, the
Decameron, but his other literary accomplishments are generally
less well-known. Yet he helped revive the Latin eclogue and epistle
and fostered the study of Greek; he made the major Renaissance
compilation of classical myths, established the pastoral romance,
and began formal Dante criticism. Among his more minor works
belongs the Ameto, the first moden pastoral romance, translated
here.
