		The work is a romance that combines pastoral elements with a mood derived from the Hellenistic model of Heliodorus.
		In the work, that is, a highly idealized version of the shepherd's life adjoins (not always naturally) with stories of jousts, political treachery, kidnappings, battles, and rapes.
		As published in the sixteenth century, the narrative follows the Greek model: stories are nested within each other, and different story-lines are intertwined.
