 Annibale Caro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Born in Civitanova Marche, Ancona, he became tutor to the family of Lodovico Gaddi, a wealthy family in Florence, and then secretary to Lodovico's brother Giovanni.
Letters he wrote, both in his own name and on behalf of the cardinals Farnese, are considered remarkable for both the baseness they display and for their euphemistic polish and elegance.
Caro's fame was diminished because of the virulence with which he attacked Lodovico Castelvetro in one of his canzoni, and by his meanness for denouncing him to the Church for translating some of the writings of Philipp Melanchthon, and associate of Martin Luther.

 Tragedy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lodovico Castelvetro's Aristotle-based Art of Poetry (1570) was one of the first enunciations of the "three unities".
In France, the most important source for tragic theater was Seneca and the precepts of Horace and Aristotle (and modern commentaries by Julius Caesar Scaliger and Lodovico Castelvetro), although plots were taken from classical authors such as Plutarch, Suetonius, etc., from the Bible, from contemporary events and from short story collections (Italian, French and Spanish).
The Greek tragic authors (Sophocles, Euripides) would become increasingly important as models by the middle of the 17th century.

 CARO ANNIBALE()., Apologia de gli Academici dei Banchi di Roma contra M. Lodovico Castelvetro da Modena. In forma d'uno ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
Nota opera che diede inizio a un'aspra polemica di carattere linguistico e politico tra l'autore e Ludovico Castelvetro che aveva giudicato severamente un sonetto in lode della casa di Valois (Venite all'ombra dei gran gigli d'oro) scritto dal Caro nel 1553.
All'Apologia rispose poi il Castelvetro a cui seguirono dei violentissimi sonetti di Annibal Caro che diffondevano assai gravi accuse contro lo stesso Castelvetro: ad esempio che avesse fatto assassinare Alberigo Longo partigiano del Caro e che fosse eretico.
Castelvetro answered then to the “Apologia” to which Caro followed with violent sonnets with serious allegations against the very Castelvetro: for example that he had Alberigo Longo assassinated and that he was an heretic.

 THE DANTE COMMENTARY TRADITION   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
An important commentary on the first 29 cantos of the Inferno by the Modenese philologist and polemicist Lodovico Castelvetro was composed in 1570 but not printed until 1886.
When one contrasts the 162 years between Castelvetro (1570) and Venturi (1732) with the 248 years that had produced fourteen major commentaries before 1570, one perceives the remarkable decline that Dante's reputation had suffered between the Renaissance and the Enlightenment.
Today the Dartmouth Dante Project (direct database connection), (whose editors are responsible for the modern edition of Daniello's commentary) has made available 46 of the most important commentaries in an on-line database which may be accessed at the following electronic address: dante@baker.dartmouth.edu.

Quivi si avvenne a Francesco Portocretese, amico suo d'antica data, già lettore di greco in Modena e in fama dei più dotto uomo d'allora, il quale già era con lui stato involto nell'affare dell'accademia, poi vissuto con Renata d'Urbino, e scoperto aderente a Calvino aveva dovuto dar un addio all'Italia.
Venne tacciato il Castelvetro d'avere tradotto un libro di Melantone, con quel suo carattere di stile che non può essere contraffatto: nelle opere postume, comunque temperate dagli editori, trovò la curia romana di che condannarle all'indice, ma benché scomunicato, non consta ch'egli abjurasse la fede.
Poc'anzi v'era morto Lodovico Besozio, scolaro del Frontano(37) migliore del maestro: era frequentissimo il contatto colla val di Reno, tutta già calvinista.

 Publisher description for Library of Congress control number 88034254
Writing the Scene of Speaking examines the different solutions offered by sixteenth-century Italian theorists to the problem posed by the hybrid textuality of dialogue, and sets them in the context of a culture in a dramatic state of transition.
The main body of the book is an analysis of treatises by Torquato Tasso, Sperone Speroni, Lodovico Castelvetro, and Carlo Sigonio.
The final chapter looks at the seventeenth-century Baroque literary theories marking the closure of the question of dialogue in early modern Italy.

The amazing success of Corneille's "Le Cid" in 1637 and "Horace" in 1640 would bring the tragedy back into fashion, where it would remain for the rest of the century.
The most important source for tragic theater was Seneca the Younger and the precepts of Horace and Aristotle (and modern commentaries by Julius Caesar Scaliger and Lodovico Castelvetro), although plots were taken from classical authors such as Plutarch, Lives of the Twelve Caesars, etc. and from short story collections (Italian, French and Spanish).
The Greek tragic authors (Sophocles, Euripides) would become increasingly important by the middle of the century.
