The Decameron is one of the greatest literary works of the Middle Ages. Ten young people have fled the terrible effects of the Black Death in Florence and, in an idyllic setting, tell a series of brilliant stories, by turns humorous, bawdy, tragic and provocative. This celebration of physical and sexual vitality is Boccaccio's answer to the sublime other-worldliness of Dante's Divine Comedy.

Story0
Firenze, 1348. La peste nera infuria, e un gruppo di giovani sta cercando di fuggire da essa. Alla ricerca di un rifugio sicuro, si ritrovano in campagna. Nell'arco di dieci giorni, per passare il tempo, si raccontano un centinaio di storie fantastiche, tristi ed elaborate. Un ricco arazzo di tragedia e commedia, di farsa e di erotismo, "Il Decameron" è un capolavoro della prosa italiana. Giovanni Boccaccio (1313-1375) è stato uno studioso, uno scrittore e un poeta italiano.

Story1
Composed in the early 1350s, in the wake of the Black Death, The Decameron comprises 100 short stories from all over the world, reset by Boccaccio among the flourishing merchant classes of Renaissance Italy. Their universal themes—love, sex, religion, fate, morality—resonate with us to this day, and their witty, satirical, bawdy voice sounds utterly modern. Monty Python star and medieval historian Terry Jones presents ten BBC Radio dramatisations of tales from Giovanni Boccaccio's humane and comic masterpiece

Story2
Boccace a trente-cinq ans en 1348 quand, "juste effet de la colère de Dieu", éclate la grande peste qui flagelle l'Italie. Composé dans les années qui suivent, le "Livre des dix journées" s'ouvrira sur ce tableau apocalyptique, à la force grandiose et terrible, qui n'a rien à envier à la description de la peste d'Athènes chez Thucydide. C'est en effet dans ce contexte que sept jeunes filles courtoises et trois jeunes hommes qui ont conservé leur noblesse d'âme se retirent sur les pentes enchanteresses de Fiesole.

Story0
Set against the shadow of the Black Plague, The Decameron by Giovanni Boccaccio is a radiant tapestry of love, wit, tragedy, and the triumph of the human spirit. When Florence is ravaged by pestilence, ten young nobles—seven women and three men—flee to a countryside villa to escape the horrors of the city. Over ten days, they pass the time by telling one hundred stories: tales of romance and folly, devotion and deception, virtue and vice.

Zehn Florentiner Adlige, die im Pestjahr 1348 aus der Stadt fliehen, erzählen einander Geschichten, um sich die Zeit zu vertreiben. In diesen wird leidenschaftlich geliebt, inbrünstig gehasst, gelitten, betrogen und schamlos verführt. Den Sprechern dieses bunten Erzählreigens, darunter Größen wie Gert Westphal, Uwe Friedrichsen u. v. a., gelingt es, Boccaccios burlesken Tonfall mittels einer fein bemessenen Ironie und dank eines unbestechlichen Gespürs für Situationskomik aufs Trefflichste zu veredeln.

Story2
A classic of medieval Italian literature, Giovanni Boccaccio’s Decameron still matters for us today. And Boccaccio scholar Kristina Olson reveals why in the 10 lectures of Books that Matter: The Decameron. Here, you’ll listen between the lines of stories that range from hopeful and spiritual to cynical and bawdy. You’ll hear words turn a sinner into a saint, brutes made noble through the power of love, and riches rediscovered on the open seas.

The Great Gatsby is considered F. Scott Fitzgerald’s magnum opus, exploring themes of decadence, idealism, social stigmas, patriarchal norms, and the deleterious effects of unencumbered wealth in capitalistic society, set against the backdrop of the Jazz Age and the Roaring Twenties. At its heart, it’s a cautionary tale, a revealing look into the darker side to the American Dream.
