Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The Dramatic Unities

As the Italian scholars became more intimately acquainted with the works of the ancients, they began to feel the influence of their taste, and to imbibe some portion of their spirit. No longer satisfied with the humble and laborious task of translating these authors, they, with a laudable simulation, endeavoured to rival the boasted remains of ancient genius by productions of a similar kind in their native tongue... The person who is entitled to the chief credit of having formed, and in some degree executed, this design, is the learned Gian Giorgio Trissino. - (Chap, xvi.)

Of Trissino himself, Sismondi says -

"Born at Vicenza in 1478 of an illustrious family, he was equally qualified by his education for letters and for public business. He came to Rome when he was twenty-four years of age, and had resided there a considerable time, when Pope Leo X., struck by his talents, sent him as ambassador to the Emperor Maximilian.
