An Italian dramatist; born at Modena, April 5, 1822; died March 9, 1889. His early comedies had little success; and his masterpiece, "Goldoni and his Sixteen Comedies" (1852) was refused production for two years, but when acted won both a popular and a critical ovation. Its successor, "Parini and Satire" (1857), gained equal favor. Among his others are: "The Modern Tartuffe" (1862); "Suicide" (1875); "The Rival Friends" (1878); "Antonietta" (1880); "Fulvio Testi" (1889).
