The Tale of Two Lovers was an erotic book written in 1444 and was one of
the bestselling books of the 15th Century. It was written by Aeneas Silvius
Piccolomini and tells the story of two lovers in Siena, Italy.
It focuses on the love story of Lucretia, a married woman, and Euryalus,
a servant of the Duke of Austria. The first printed version published in
1470 contained lots of erotic imagery to accompany the story.
But what really makes this story special is the fact that the author, Aeneas
Silvius Piccolomini, is better known to the world as Pope Pius II. Who is
also the only reigning Pope to have written an autobiography—quite the
author!
