Ohio State University Press,The. InquiryBook Description
This unfailingly lucid and intelligent study supplies further cogent evidence of American scholarship's steadily maturing involvement with the second most interesting writer of the Italian trecento. Sherberg . . . reads Boccaccio's Decameron with attentive care, skillfully deploying close textual analysis, his extensive familiarity with the relevant secondary literature, and an informed understanding of 20th-century legal theory .
