Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini (Pius II): The Goodli History of the Ladye Lucres

This is a critical edition of the 16th-century translation into English of the Latin novella, the "Historia de Duobus Amantibus", by Aeneas Silvius Piccolomini.

This edition, which was previously only accessible in an old and rare diplomatic reprint, clearly demonstrates the full impact of Italian Renaissance learning on English prose fiction.
