    Extractions: Boccaccio was born in 1313, either in Florence or Certaldo (a town in Florentine territory). His father, a prosperous merchant banker with the Compagnia dei Bardi, moved to Naples in 1327 as general manager of the bank's Neapolitan branch, taking the adolescent Boccaccio with him. He entertained notions of his son following in his footsteps, and apprenticed him to the trade, but when he realised that Boccaccio had no vocation for banking he arranged for him to study canon law. This was equally unsuccessful, and after a few years Boccaccio gave up his legal studies and devoted his time to literature and scholarship. At this period Naples, under King Robert of Anjou, was one of the major intellectual and cultural centres in Europe. To judge from references in his Latin epistles, Boccaccio considered his sojourn in Naples as the happiest period in his life.

    Extractions: Boccaccio, detail of a fresco by Andrea del Castagno; in the Cenacolo di Sant' Apollonia, Florence SCALA/Art Resource, New York City (b. 1313, Paris, Fr.d. Dec. 21, 1375, Certaldo, Tuscany [Italy]), Italian poet and scholar, best remembered as the author of the earthy tales in the Decameron . With Petrarch he laid the foundations for the humanism of the Renaissance and raised vernacular literature to the level and status of the classics of antiquity. Boccaccio was the son of a Tuscan merchant, Boccaccio di Chellino (called Boccaccino), and a mother who was probably French. He passed his early childhood rather unhappily in Florence. His father had no sympathy for Boccaccio's literary inclinations and sent him, not later than 1328, to Naples to learn business, probably in an office of the Bardi, who dominated the court of Naples by means of their loans. In this milieu Boccaccio experienced the aristocracy of the commercial world as well as all that survived of the splendours of courtly chivalry and feudalism. He also studied canon law and mixed with the learned men of the court and the friends and admirers of Petrarch, through whom he came to know the work of Petrarch himself. These years in Naples, moreover, were the years of Boccaccio's love for

    Extractions: Born at Certaldo, Boccaccio lived in Florence until the age of 13, when he joined his father at the Florentine merchant colony at Naples. There he trained as an apprentice merchant before switching to the study of canon law at the Neapolitan Studio. Returning to Florence in 1341, he became a vigorous supporter of the republican regime and served during the next thirty years as, inter alia, ambassador to emperor and pope, overseer of mercenary troops, and advisor to the bishop of Florence. He wrote his Decameron immediately after the catastrophic Black Death of 1348. By the time he first met Petrarch (1350), he was the undisputed leader of Florentine literary culture. Under Petrarch's influence, he turned increasingly away from vernacular fiction in favor of Latin encyclopedism. He took lessons in Greek, solicited translations from Greek texts, and in 1360 successfully worked to establish at Florence the first chair of Greek in non-Byzantine Europe. In 1373 the citizens of Florence chose him to give the world's first

    Extractions: GIOVANNI BOCCACCIO Nasce a Firenze o a Certaldo nel 1313 da donna ignota e Michelino Boccaccino. Per nobilitarsi si diceva figlio della parigina Jeannette de la Roche. Il padre lo voleva mercante, banchiere e lo manda a Napoli presso il Banco dei Bardi di cui era socio, poi lo esorta invano allo studio del diritto canonico. Il favore di quegli verso Roberto d’Angiò lo portarono a corte, il cui ambiente tesse il mito di Fiammetta (forse la contessa Maria D’Aquino figlia del re e di una nobile francese). Ivi scrive la Caccia di Diana, il Filostrato, il Filocolo. Coi Bardi in rovina nel 1340 lascia Napoli. Con gravi difficoltà economiche s’inserisce a Firenze. Nel 1362 si ha la sua svolta spirituale per l’ammonizione del certosino Petroni. Dissuaso da Petrarca dal bruciare il Decameron, compone opere erudite in latino, d’ispirazione preumanistica. Riceve gli ordini sacri da Innocenzo VI. Muore per una grave malattia nel 1375. OPERE CONSULTABILI GRATUITAMENTE BIBLIOTECA
