Giovanni Argoli (born July 1, 1609 in Tagliacozzo ; † 1660 ) was an Italian lawyer , humanist and poet .
Life
Giovanni Argoli was a son of the lawyer, astronomer , astrologer and mathematician Andrea Argoli (1570–1657) from Tagliacozzo in Abruzzo . From a young age he showed a lively tendency to write letters and poems. As a teenager he composed the "Pastoral Umwandlung Idylli de la Bombace e de la Seta" published in Rome in 1624 . Only a few years later he composed the mythological poem "L'Endimione" ( Terni 1626) within a very short time, which reflected many accents and characters from Marino's opera. When his father was appointed professor at the University of Padua in 1632 , Giovanni moved there with him and began studying law and soon graduated as Doctor Juris in law. Because of his literary fame, he was the author in 1637 for a period of three years a chair at the University of Bologna to there humanism to teach. After his time in Bologna, Giovanni Argoli was still active as Podestà in Cerva in Calabria and in Lugo in the Emilia-Romagna region .
In his 15 years he wrote “Idillio de la Bombace e de la Seta, Trasformazioni pastorali” and in the 17 year out of emulation against the Marino the “Poema heroicum l 'Endimione” and many other stories such as B .; "Vitae Columellae et Curtii Rufi" ; “In Auctorem ad Herennium Animadversiones” ; "Philippica di Cicerone versus M. Antonio tradotta in Lingua Volgare" ; "De Aqua Martia libellus" ; "Commentaria in Tacitum" ; “Notae in Juvenalem et Persium” ; "Elegiarum, Lib. I" ; "Epigrammatum, Liber II" and remarks about Onofrio Panvinios "De ludis circensibus" , which in Graevii Thesauro Tom. IX were written down.
