Translating The Past

In 1409 Laurent de Premierfait (c 1380-1418) produced a French translation of Boccaccio's "De casibus virorum illustrium" ("On the Fates of Famous Men"), a fourteenth-century text containing cautionary historical tales about the corrupting effects of power. This book traces the history of Laurent's work.
