Ludovico Pasquali (c.1500–1551) was an Italian-language author from Cattaro. [1]
Life
Pasquali was born and died in Kotor, in the Albania Veneta (today in Montenegro). He was from an ancient Dalmatian family with roots in Florence. He was a friend, admirer and fellow countryman of Giovanni Bona Boliris. Pasquali studied in the University of Padova and -after being enslaved in Crete by the Turks- returned to his hometown where he spent all his remaining life promoting the culture of Renaissance Italy.
He was judged the best "poet" of Venetian Dalmatia during the 16th century. [2]
Pasquali wrote a 1549 collection of poems in Italian, Rime Volgari ("Popular Rhymes" – Italian was often called "volgare", with the meaning of "popular", well into the 16th century: it was thought to be the popular version of Latin). His volume in Latin Carmina ("Poems") was printed in 1551.
Works
- Rime volgari di m. Ludouico Paschale da catharo Dalmatino. Non piu date in luce., In Vinegia: appresso Steffano et Battista cognati al segno de S. Moise, 1549
- Ludovici Pascalis Iulii Camilli, Molsae, et aliorum illustrium poetarum carmina, ad illustriss. et doctiss. marchionem Auriae Bernardinum Bonifatium per Ludouicum Dulcium nunc primum in lucem aedita., Venetiis: apud Gabrielem Iolitum et fratres De Ferrariis, 1551
Legacy
Giacomo Scotti described Pasquali as one of the most "Italians" of the Dalmatian poets: he never wrote in Serbo-Croatian, but only in Italian and sometimes in Latin. [3] [4][ verification needed]
The Croatian Encyclopedia describes him as a 'Croatian poet' and notes his works in Italian and Latin. [5]
