Nicholas Leonicus Thomaeus ( Italian: Niccolò Leonico Tomeo, Albanian: Nikollë Leonik Tomeu, Greek: Νικόλαος Λεόνικος Θωμεύς; 1456–1531) was a Venetian scholar and professor of philosophy as well as of Greek and Latin at the University of Padua. [1]
Thomaeus was born in Venice, Italy on February 1, 1456, to an Albanian [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] or Greek [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] family from Epirus [20] or Albania. [1] While in Florence, he studied Greek philosophy and literature under the tutelage of Demetrios Chalcondyles. [19] [17] In 1497, the University of Padua appointed Thomaeus as its first official lecturer on the Greek text of Aristotle. [15] [16] [17] In 1504, he was elected to succeed Giorgio Valla as chair of Greek in Venice, but because Thomaeus failed to take the post seriously, he was succeeded in 1512 by Marcus Musurus. [17] In 1524, Thomaeus published a collection of philosophical dialogues in Latin, the first of which was titled Trophonius, sive, De divinatione. [16] He was admired by scholars such as Desiderius Erasmus for his philological capabilities. [18] When the University of Padua was reopened after the wars of the League of Cambrai, Thomaeus taught at the university until his death on March 28, 1531. [17]
