The first edition of his translation appeared in 1891–1892. The text was printed in two versions; 1,000 copies contained omissions of passages not permitted by censorship, and only 100 books were printed without cuts. It is noteworthy that the Soviet-era editions, like the Decameron publications that appeared in the 21st century, were also incomplete. This publication is free of this drawback. For the first time in more than a century of Russian publications of Boccaccio’s famous work, readers can read a complete translation of the Decameron without any abbreviations. This edition is superbly illustrated with 19th-century French engravings, as well as color miniatures from a French manuscript from the early 15th century.
