Boccaccio's <span style="font-style : italic ; ">Elegia di Madonna Fiammetta</span> 

Elegia di Madonna Fiammetta  http://www.stg.brown.edu/dynaweb/boccaccio/fiammetta/ 

STG lead(s): Giovanna Roz, Elli Mylonas

STG offered DTD development and SGML consulting for the publishing of Boccaccio's Elegia di Madonna Fiammetta. Light SGML encoding was done by Vika Zafrin, Italian Studies graduate.

Dynaweb 4.1 was used to deliver the SGML encoded text from the STG web server, and to implement the word search feature.

The publishing of this and other minor works by Boccaccio is part of an ongoing collaboration with Brown University Italian Studies, sponsored by the National Endownment for the Humanities. 

The Decameron Web project was started in the academic year 1994-1995 at the Italian Studies Department. It is a teaching tool presenting the text of Boccaccio's Decameron and a growing corpus of secondary material about the author and medieval Italy. In addition to the text of the Decameron, the project is now including some of Boccaccio's minor works.
