The Italian Novella (Hardcover)

The novella was an important medieval and Renaissance prose narrative form that developed out of exempla and didactic literature and contributed to modern narrative forms. This is the first collection of essays dedicated to comprehensive scholarship on the Italian novella. The essays range from work on the Decameron, the epitome of the genre, to studies of sixteenth century authors who often utilized transgressive or sexual themes in their novellas.
