  Antonio Di Pietro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antonio Di Pietro (born on 12 October 1950) is an Italian politician, currently Italian Minister of Infrastructures.
Di Pietro collected just short of the nationwide 4% limit which had to be passed to enter the Lower Chamber of the Parliament in the proportional quota, and a single senator, who strangely immediately defected to Berlusconi's party.
Di Pietro was one of seven candidates as leader of the left-wing coalition The Union for the primary election held on October 16, 2005, and eventually won by Romano Prodi, in which he obtained 3.3% of the votes, ranking fourth.

 Di Pietro, corruption & Clean Hands: interview with Domenico Pacitti   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Antonio Di Pietro, the former Milan magistrate, became an overnight national hero in Italy in the early 1990s for bringing leading politicians to justice on corruption charges.
Di Pietro became a sort of overnight national hero but predictably his success was short-lived.
Di Pietro wouldn't stand for any nonsense and always insisted in talking straight and acting with the utmost attention to legal and moral factors, which is pretty unusual in any Italian sphere let alone in politics.

Di Pietro's angry response to the end-of-year speech by the President of the Republic, Oscar L. Scalfaro, has united politicians against him and the country behind him.
Di Pietro's resentment is due - as he himself explains - to the fact that the President's speech, which does not name names, has been used by various Members of Parliament, on both the centre-right and extreme left, to attack him or his ex-colleagues in the Milan Pool.
Di Pietro has already sued for libel and slander some of those he has prosecuted and others accusing him of having abused the system of precautionary imprisonment, and has actually earned a sizeable sum from winning the lawsuits.

Antonio di Pietro is a man with a mission - and after a summer combing Italy's beaches and bars in pursuit of half a million citizens who share his zeal, his mission is near completion.
The Italian Left, usually quick to bash Berlusconi when the opportunity arises, is lukewarm about the proposed referendum, many having decided in June that immunity for 'Il Cavaliere', as Berlusconi is known, was better than a constitutional crisis should he be found guilty while still in office.
Di Pietro says left-wing leaders have asked him directly to stop and the Italian media have hardly covered the progress of his campaign this summer, meaning many Italians do not know a referendum is in the offing.

Pacitti: Well, understandably, Italians were disappointed and they suspected that this had been Di Pietro’s intention all along and that Clean Hands had been politically rather than judicially motivated.

Fungai depended heavily on the preceding generation of Sienese painters and was considerably influenced by the contemporary activity of Pietro Perugino, Luca Signorelli and Bernardino Pinturicchio in and around Siena.
His works are characterized by the docility of the figures, a keen decorative sensibility in the use of colour and the treatment of drapery and landscape, and a pleasantly engaging narrative skill.
