I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would! It's amazing how little humanity has changed in the last 700 years.

Interesting to see how things that are commenly regarded as highly problematic today were a normality in the Middle Ages. Anti-feminist, but good to study. Boccaccio would thrive as a Gen-Z.
