Bøger af Giovanni Boccaccio

Dekameron er en fantastisk ny dansk oversættelse af den berømte forfatter og digter Giovanni Boccaccio. Historien befinder sig i året 1348, hvor fem unge mænd og fem unge kvinder flygter fra pesten i Firenze, som finder ly i en lille landsby uden for byen. For at få tiden til at gå, forsøger de unge mennesker at underholde og opmuntre hinanden. Det ender med at de 10 personer udveksler historier med hinanden over 10 dage på skift. Det er disse interessante fortællinger om kærlighed og kammeratskab, om dumdristighed og hævnakt, der spænder fra det humoristiske og sanselige til det hjerteskærende og dramatiske, som tilsammen danner rammen for Dekameron. Dekameron anses for at have drevet verdenslitteraturen, da den har skabt forudsætningen for den europæiske prosatradition og novellegenre. Dekameron rummer så mange gode historier, som efter mere end 600 år stadig er overraskende og fascinerende.

I det Herrens år 1348 hærgede den sorte død Italien efter året før at være kommet til Messina med nogle overlevende fra en krig mod mongolerne på Krim. Da den rammer Firenze, fortrækker et lille selskab bestående af syv damer og tre herrer sammen med deres tjenestefolk til en forladt villa uden for byen. Her fordriver de tiden med sang og dans, og med at fortælle hinanden historier - én hver i de ti dage, de opholder sig i villaen. Fortællingerne er som oftest humoristiske og handler om de ting, der optog - og stadig i dag i høj grad optager – os mennesker: kærlighed og død, ridderlighed, krig og kiv, høj- og lavsindethed hos adel, borger og bonde - og sidst, men ikke mindst, om begær - såvel efter rigdom som efter næstens hustru.Der har gennem tiderne været lagt meget vægt på Dekamerons "upassende" indhold - allerede i 1570'erne stod Vatikanet bag en tilrettet udgave, som man påstod var "forbedret" og "lå nærmere forfatterens intentioner", og så sent som i Marx Jantsens danske oversættelse fra 1929 har man følt sig foranlediget til at dæmpe "udskejelserne". Sagen er imidlertid nok, at selv om Boccaccio ikke lægger skjul på tingene, så findes det meste af det "uartige" i læserens eget hoved.Dekameron er ikke et værk, der skal læses i et stræk. Læs en historie eller tre ad gangen, og find dine egne yndlinge hen ad vejen.

For many centuries, Aristotle's Physics was the essential starting point for anyone who wished to study the natural sciences. Now, in the first translation into English since 1930, Aristotle's thought is presented accurately, with a lucid introduction and extensive notes to explain the general structure of eac section of the book, and shed light on particular problems. It simplifies and expands the style of the original, making for easier reading and better comprehension.

Året er 1348 og pesten hærger i Firenze. Syv kvinder og tre mænd fra det bedre borgerskab flygter ud af byen for at undslippe sygdommen og desperationen. Sammen slår de sig ned på et landsted og for at holde humøret højt beslutter de at fortælle én historie hver, hver dag i ti dage. Resultatet er hundrede noveller, der spænder over fortællinger om kløgt og dumhed, bedrag og hævn til venskab og kærlighed. Centralt står de erotiske noveller, der delikat og sensuelt udpensler menneskets naturlige drifter. Det er et smagfuldt, men dristigt værk om seksualitet, trøst og opmuntring fuld af humor og sjofle detaljer."Dekameron" betegnes som den første novellesamling i moderne europæisk litteratur og selv 600 år efter den oprindelige udgivelse fremstår værket som et skatkammer af humoristiske, fascinerende og løsslupne fortællinger. Denne bog er en redigeret udgave med udvalgte fortællinger oversat af Alfred Flinch.Giovanni Boccaccio (1313 - 1375) var italiensk digter og forfatter og en af renæssancens væsentligste humanister. I en tid præget af religiøse skrifter og ridderfortællinger om middelalderdyder vakte Boccaccio opsigt med sine verdslige digte og prosatekster som han skrev på modersmålet italiensk. Med udgivelsen af hovedværket "Dekameron" stadfæstede Boccaccio sin plads i litteraturhistorien, og værket har sidenhen ydet stor indflydelse på moderne europæisk novelletradition.
