An Italian scholar and controversial writer; born in Naples, March 20, 1826; died at Torre del Greco, Oct. 22, 1895. His early career indicated scholarly activities only, for he made fine studies and versions of Aristotle and Plato; but later he took up such subjects as "The Financial History of Italy, 1864-88" (1868); "The Life and Times of Valentino Pasini" (1867); and "The Life of Jesus" (1890); the popularity and value of these and other works giving him great prominence.
