An Italian dramatic poet; born at Turin, Dec. 19, 1834. He is one of the most original dramatists of Italy, especially in comedy. Among his many comedies, vaudevilles, etc., the play which won for him a wide reputation was "La Quaderna di Nanni" (1870), a perfect picture of Florentine life. He wrote some historical sketches and narratives of travel.
