N2  - "Novelleja Decameronesta" by Giovanni Boccaccio is a collection of one hundred tales written between 1349 and 1353. During the devastating Black Plague in Florence, ten young friends—seven women and three men—flee to the countryside. There, they pass their time with songs, dances, and storytelling. Each day, they elect a leader who chooses a theme, and each member tells a tale inspired by it. Through these stories, Boccaccio paints a vivid portrait of fourteenth-century society, blending aristocratic ideals with merchant values. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
