De Casibus Virorum Illustrium

''De Casibus Virorum Illustrium'' (''On the Fates of Famous Men'') is a work of 56 biographies in Latin prose composed by the Florentine poet Giovanni Boccaccio of Certaldo in the form of moral stories of the falls of famous people, similar to his work of 106 biographies ''On Famous Women''.
==Overview==
''De casibus'' is an encyclopedia of historical biography and a part of the classical tradition of historiography. It deals with the fortunes and calamities of famous people starting with the biblical Adam, going to mythological and ancient people, then to people of Boccaccio's own time in the fourteenth century.〔(History of Tragedy )〕 The work was so successful it spawned what has been referred to as the ''De casibus'' tradition,〔''Narrative, Authority, and Power: The Medieval Exemplum and the Chaucerian'' by Larry Scanlon, p. 119, Cambridge University Press (1994), ISBN 0-521-04425-1〕 influencing many other famous authors such as Geoffrey Chaucer, John Lydgate, and Laurent de Premierfait.〔Alan Coates, et al., ''A Catalogue of Books Printed in the Fifteenth Century now in the Bodleian Library'' (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2005), p. 596-617. ISBN 0-19-951373-2〕 De casibus also inspired character figures in works like ''The Canterbury Tales'',〔(Chaucer's influences )〕 ''The Monk's Tale'',〔(JSTOR: The Mediaeval Setting of Chaucer's Monk's Tale )〕 the ''Fall of Princes'' (c. 1438),〔Richard A. Dwyer, "Arthur's Stellification in the Fall of Princes" ''Philological Quarterly'', 57 (1978), pp. 155-171〕 ''Des cas de nobles hommes et femmes'' (c. 1409),〔(The Literary Encyclopedia )〕 and ''Caida de principles'' (a fifteenth-century Spanish collection), and ''A Mirror for Magistrates'' (a very popular sixteenth-century continuation written by William Baldwin and others).〔Vittorio Zaccaria, ''Introduzione'', in Giovanni Boccaccio's ''De Casibus Virorum Illustrium'' volume 9 of ''Tutte le opere di Giovanni Boccaccio'' under guidance of Pier Giorgio Ricci and Vittorio Zaccaria, ed. Vittore Branca, 12 volumes I Classici Mondadori (Milan:Arnoldo Mondadori editor, 1983)〕
