An Italian comic poet (1824-63); born at San Daniele in the district of Friuli. His first collection of lyric poems was published in 1853, and the same year his drama "Eleonora of Toldo"; neither had much success. But in 1857 his comedy "The Little Stray Sheep" was received with hearty favor throughout Italy; and not less gratifying was the success of the pieces which succeeded it.
