By Giovanni Fiorentino

The Pecorone, a collection of tales by Giovanni Fiorentino, offers a fascinating glimpse into Renaissance Italy. Written in the 14th century, these stories, presented in Volume 7, reflect the social customs, values, and beliefs of the time.

The tales, often humorous and sometimes tragic, explore themes of love, fortune, and human nature. Readers will appreciate the lively prose and the vivid portrayal of Renaissance society.
