ABOUT THIS TITLE AND BOOK:"The Decameron" is a classic work of Italian literature, written by Giovanni Boccaccio in the 14th century. The title is derived from the Greek words "deka" (ten) and "mera" (day), reflecting the book's structure of 100 tales told by ten young women and men over ten days. The work is renowned for its comprehensive portrayal of life during the Black Death, as the storytellers have retreated to the countryside to escape the plague ravaging Florence. Boccaccio's tales range from the erotic to the tragic, the pious to the mundane, and are considered a masterpiece of classical early Italian prose. The translator, John Payne (1842 1916), was a poet and translator, known for his translations of Boccaccio and other significant works from French and Italian literature. Louis Chalon, the illustrator, was a French artist known for his book illustrations and paintings. The style and quality of his illustrations could add to the book's collectibility and aesthetic value. Happy to send pictures and answer a questions.…

Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. An exceptional Mosher Press production from the Thomas B. Mosher series of finely printed limited editions, exemplifying the craftsmanship and aesthetic ideals of America's private-press renaissance. Printed on Van Gelder handmade paper in a limited edition of 500 copies, and rarely found with both its integral printed wrapper and the original titled glassine dust jacket intact. A fine example of Thomas B. Mosher's devotion to medieval poetry and fine press design at the height of the American private-press movement. Printed at Mosher's Exchange Street press; in fine condition internally. Bound in plain cream stiff wraps with integral printed outer wrapper forming part of the binding. Original translucent glassine dust jacket, printed in red on the spine, is laid overage-toned with typical chipping and tears along folds but seldom retained. Text block bright and crisp, showing only light offsetting from the vellum frontispiece. A well-preserved example uncommon with both jackets. François Villon (1431after 1463) was France's first great lyric poet and among the most compelling figures of medieval literature. A scholar turned vagabond, his life of poverty, wit, and defiance found voice in Le Lais and Le Grand Testamentworks blending courtly grace with street realism. His haunting meditations on mortality and transience, including the famous 'Where Are the Snows of Yesteryear?', influenced writers from Rabelais to Pound. Villon remains collected for his enduring voice of rebellion and humanity, bridging the medieval and the modern poetic imagination. The Mosher Press editions of Villon (1900, 1905, 1909) established Payne's translation as the standard English rendering for the early 20th century. Mosher's typography and use of Van Gelder paper mirror the Kelmscott and Vale Press influences he championed. The 1909 issue, the final and smallest in the sequence, reproduces Payne's dedication to Théodore de Banville and includes genealogical and bibliographic notes absent from the 1900 first printing.
