Chapter Itinerari amazzonici in Boccaccio: il retroterra romanzo
Abstract
The theme of the Amazons accompanies Boccaccio’s vast literary production, from youth to maturity. The essay explores the interactions between texts of medieval french literature and Boccaccio’s works; at the same time, it aims to place Boccaccio’s works within the Angevin culture of Naples in the fourteenth century.
