Synopsis:
Of the adherents of these divers opinions not all died- neither did all escape; but rather there were- of each sort and in every place- many that sickened and by those who retained their health were treated after the example which they themselves- while whole- had set- being everywhere left to languish in almost total neglect.'

About the Author:
Giovanni Boccaccio 1313-1375 was an Italian writer, poet, correspondent of Petrarch, and an important Renaissance humanist. He wrote in the Italian vernacular and is particularly noted for his realistic dialogue which differed from that of his contemporaries, medieval writers who usually followed formulaic models for character and plot.
