Basile es celebrado principalmente por su colección de cuentos de hadas napolitanos, publicada póstumamente. Estas historias representan las variantes más antiguas conocidas de muchos cuentos clásicos, incluyendo versiones tempranas de "Rapunzel" y "Cenicienta". Su obra, valorada por su voz narrativa única y sus profundas raíces en la tradición oral, se ha convertido en un texto fundamental para posteriores recopiladores de folclore.
