An Italian novelist; born at Atezza in Abruzzi, Aug. 25, 1855. His stories and romances are to a great extent pictures of life among the peasantry and mountain folk of Southern Italy. He has also written romances of a less local character: "Diana"; "The Unknown". He has devoted special study to Slavic literature, and published several volumes on that subject.
