"Federigo's Falcon," by Boccacchio as a Script, Reader's Theater, Irony O'Henry
This short story, written by Giovanni Boccacchio (1313-1375), the great medieval Italian writer, is delightful in how it depicts courtly manners and has a clever irony infused in its plot. It is often paired with O'Henry's "The Gift of the Magi" and Maupassant's "The Necklace." Boccacchio was friends with Petrarch and influenced Chaucer. This version is translated by Mark Musa and Peter Bondanella, professors and scholars of Italian Literature from Indiana University.
