Magical elements aside, is Boccaccios story believable, or is it too far-fetche
Magical elements aside, is Boccaccios story believable, or is it too far-fetched to be believed? Perhaps the relationship between magic and reality creates a wall between reality and credibility? Discuss whether the real stuff mentioned in the stories (the Crusades, a mans role, a womans role, societal expectations, or perhaps magic vs reality/spirituality) helps make the stories (or a specific story/narrator/character pick one) believable? Make sure you use an example for support.
**************************************************
The reading for this weeks module is some of my favorite. The Decameron is quite entertaining. I had a student inquire about my prompt for the reading response, so I thought I would include some additional instruction/clarification here:
What I really want to know is your opinion on Boccaccios use of magic within his stories. Does he lose credibility by including magical/supernatural elements? Are his didactic moments lost because he includes magic here and there?
I hope you enjoyed the reading.
250 words maximum. Im not a word counter, but try to stay close to this count while answering the prompt.
NO QUOTING from any other source.
Limited quoting from the literature. Keep literature quotes to less than three lines and cite quotations. (A line of poetry is a line of text.) Check the Course Materials section for a refresher on HOW to quote poetry.
