Giovanni Boccaccio is one of Europe's most beloved authors. He authored books such as The Decameron and On Famous Women, both of which provide valuable insight into the culture and society of fourteenth century Florence. Boccaccio was a master of many genres including novels, short stories, biographies and poetry. His books often explored the relationship between man and divine will as well as how society changes over time. While there were many books that were written before him, Boccaccio's works remain some of the most influential in all of European literature today due to his innovative writing style and modern depictions of humanity.
