Peregrinaggio di tre giovani figliuoli del re di Serendippo (The Peregrinations of the three young sons of the King of Serendippo) is a sixteenth century collection of fantastical tales in a framing story, rather like 1001 Nights (but not so elaborate).

Serendipity and the Three Princes is an English translation of the Peregrinaggio, with commentary, published in 1965. I managed to pick up a copy, but I think it is also available to borrow from the Open Library. It’s quite interesting.

I retold a few stories from the Pereginaggio on the blog.
