Pier Angelo Fiorentino

Pier Angelo Fiorentino was a playwright, journalist, poet, and translator who engaged with political life during the Risorgimento. He distinguished himself as a music and theater critic for major French newspapers, and his translation of Dante's Divine Comedy into French is a notable work. Though he collaborated with Alexandre Dumas, his own authorship was mistakenly attributed to Dumas, leading to erroneous beliefs about his contribution to certain famous works.
