"L'Ystoire de Eurialus et Lucresse, vrays amoureux, selon pape Pie" by Pope Pius II is a French translation published in 1493 of an erotic prose romance originally written in Latin in 1444. Set in Siena during the time of Emperor Sigismund, the story follows Euryalus, an unmarried confidant of the emperor, and Lucretia, a married woman, whose forbidden passion ignites through secret glances and letters. Their dangerous affair unfolds through disguises and clandestine meetings while Lucretia's suspicious husband tightens his watch, leading toward an inevitable and tragic conclusion.
