Das Pentameron (neapolitanisch Pentamerone ‚Fünftagewerk') ist der Titel einer berühmten Sammlung von Erzählungen, die 1634/36 erschien und 50 Texte enthält. Zehn Frauen erzählen Geschichten, an fünf Tagen, jede jeweils eine. Dazu entwirft Basile eine Rahmenhandlung ähnlich dem Vorbild Decamerone von Giovanni Boccaccio. Die Rahmenhandlung leitet jeweils zwischen den einzelnen Erzählungen kurz über, die sonst für sich stehen und unabhängig rezipiert wurden. Auch wenn das Pentameron als Märchensammlung gilt: als Vorlesestoff für Kinder ist es nicht geeignet.
