| Summary: | "This book valiantly attempts to fill a void, investigating an enigma that the author kept carefully hidden or otherwise concealed by dense veil of allegory. The scholar leads the reader by the hand on a fascinating narrative journey littered with documentary sources, evidence and clues that intersect effectively with literary discourse. Through the retelling of myths such as the Knights Templar or fortunate literary moments such as 'il dolce stilnovo', but also by means of in-depth analysis of semantic codes kept secret for centuries, the author reveals to the reader a world hitherto unexplored in the hundredth story of the Decameron."--Translation of publisher's description on front cover flap. |
