Abstract
The article explores the role played by Boccaccio's works, in particular the Teseida and the De claris mulieribus, in the formation of the epic-chivalric poem. From the cantari to the Orlando furioso, amazonian narrations become a crucial element of the development of the genre, making Boccaccio a multidirectional model.
