Filostrato is a book written by the Italian author Giovanni Boccaccio in the 14th century. The book is a collection of stories that center around the theme of love and romance. The title of the book, Filostrato, means ""love-struck"" in Italian, and it is a fitting title for a collection of tales that explore the many facets of love.The stories in Filostrato are set in various locations throughout Italy and follow the lives of a diverse cast of characters. Some of the stories are tragic, while others are more lighthearted, but all of them are united by their exploration of the human experience of love.One of the most famous stories in the book is the tale of Troilus and Criseyde, which tells the story of the doomed love affair between a Trojan prince and a Greek princess during the Trojan War. The story has been adapted into various forms over the years, including a play by William Shakespeare.Overall, Filostrato is a timeless work of literature that continues to captivate readers with its exploration of the complexities of love and human relationships.I therefore affirm it true, O most beautiful lady, that after by departing from the delightful city of Naples at the most charming season of the year and going hence to Sannio, you suddenly removed from mine eyes, more desirous of your angelic sight than of aught else, what I ought to have known by your presence but did not, that, by its contrary--that is, by the privation of it--I was given instant knowledge of. And this hath saddened my soul so far beyond any proper limit that I can clearly appreciate how great was the happiness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
