Excerpt from Boccaccio on Poetry: Being the Preface and the Fourteenth and Fifteenth, Books of Boccaccio's Genealogia Deorum Gentilium in an English Version With Introductory Essay and Commentary

Partly for the historic worth of these books, partly because the ideas which they contain may not be wholly unsalutary in this latter day, and partly because they lead to intimacy with that very engaging person, the author, this version has seemed worth the making. It had its origin more than twenty years ago in a suggestion of the late Professor Cook.
