The Facetiae or Jocose Tales of Poggio
The Facetiae or Jocose Tales of Poggio (1879) - volume 2.
The name of the translator (translators?) is not provided, alas, and I am very frustrated to not find volume 1 at Google Books. Meanwhile, the Internet Archive likewise has only volume 2 from Google Books (although it is not listed as volume 2 there; very confusing). If anyone has suggestions about where volume 1 of this book can be found online, I would be very grateful!

Campbell: The Seven Sages of Rome
The Seven Sages of Rome by Killis Campbell (1907)
This is an edition of the Middle English version of the Seven Sages legend, commonly known as the Dolopathos in Latin; the introduction (over 100 pages) is extremely useful for anyone who is interested in this folklore tradition.
