The Decameron (From the Greek: Î´Î­ÎºÎ± - ten & Î¼Î­ÏÎ± - day) (Italian: Decameron [deËkaËmeron] or Decamerone [dekameËroËne]), subtitled Prince Galehaut (Old Italian: Prencipe Galeotto [ËprentÊipe É¡aleËÉtto]), is a collection of novellas by the 14th-century Italian author Giovanni Boccaccio (1313â1375).
Dioneo narrates what is by far the most obscene and bawdy tale in the Decameron. Alibech, a naive young woman, wanders into the desert in an attempt to become closer to God. She happens upon the monk Rustico, and he deflowers her under the pretense of teaching her how to better please God.anfilo is the king of the last day of storytelling and he orders the company to tell stories about deeds of munificence. These tales seem to escalate in their degrees of munificence until the end, where the day (and the entire Decameron) reaches an apex in the story of patient Griselda.
