Yet while Dante’s and Petrarch’s lyric poetry has long been available to English readers through numerous translations, the complete work of Giovanni Boccaccio – the third of Italy’s Three Crowns – remains largely inaccessible in English, despite his towering influence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cem\u003eRIME\u003c\/em\u003e bridges this gap by presenting the first complete English translation of Boccaccio’s poetry alongside the original Italian text.
