ResumoOrtensio Lando is a familiar figure to all specialists in the literature of sixteenth-century Italy as one of the most singular and individual of those who, according to Arturo Graf, ‘si potrebbero … opportunamente chiamare gli scapigliati della letteratura nel Cinquecento;’ but outside Italy he is little known to those who have not made a special study of this field. Yet he is not without interest to students of English Literature, both on account of the ‘fortuna’ of his Paradossi (cf. W. G. Rice, op. cit.) and for his translation of More's Utopia: La Republica nuovamente ritrovata del governo delly' Isola Eutopia … opera di Thomaso Moro cittadino di Londra, ‘In Vinegia, MDXLVIII.’
