Andrea Barbazza (1581/2 – 7 August 1656) was an Italian Marinist poet and literary critic.
Biography
He was born of a noble family in Bologna between 1581 and 1582. Between 1611 and 1613, Barbazza was first ‘maestro di camera’ and after ‘primo cameriere’ of cardinal Ferdinando Gonzaga.[1] After a long stay in Rome (1624-1632), he settled permanently in his native Bologna, where he occupied important legal and administrative offices.[2] He was an expert on the code of chivalry and on questions of honour.[1]
On 26 April 1614 he married Countess Bianca Bentivoglio, granddaughter of Bianca Cappello, by whom he had a son, Ferdinando.[1] In 1648, after the death of his first wife, he married Countess Silvia Boccaferri, by whom he had two sons, Filippo and Bartolomeo.[1]
Barbazza was a member of the Accademia dei Gelati of Bologna, the Accademia degli Incogniti of Venice and the Accademia degli Umoristi of Rome.[1] He was decorated with the Order of Saint Michael by Marie de' Medici in 1612.[1]
Works
Barbazza was a friend and correspondent of Claudio Achillini, Angelico Aprosio, Pietro Della Valle, Giambattista Basile and Giambattista Marino.[1] Marino stayed often with him during his stays in Bologna.[1] Barbazza defended the poetry of Marino against the attacks of Tommaso Stigliani in his Strigliate (Scoldings), published in 1629 with the jocular pseudonym of Robusto Pogomega.[3] He wrote also the pastoral dramas L'Amorosa Costanza and L'Armidoro (1646), and a number of lyrics published in contemporary anthologies.[3]
