ACCORSO (Accuxslus), MARIANGELO (c. 1490--1544)

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 123 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: A10-ADA
ACCORSO (Accuxslus), MARIANGELO (c. 1490--1544) , Italian critic, was born at Aquila, in the kingdom of Naples. He was a
great
  favourite with Charles V., at whose
court
  he resided for thirty-three years, and by whom he was employed on various foreign missions. To a perfect knowledge of Greek and Latin he added an intimate acquaintance with several modern languages. In discovering and collating ancient manuscripts, for which his travels abroad gave him
special
  opportunities, he displayed uncommon
diligence
 . His
work
  entitled Diatribae in Ausonium, Solinum et Ovidium (1524) is a
monument
  of erudition and
critical
  skill. He was the first editor of the Letters of Cassiodorus, with his Treatise on the Soul (1538); and his edition of Ammianus
Marcellinus
  (1533) contains five books more than any former one. The affected use of antiquated terms, introduced by some of the Latin writers of that age, is humorously ridiculed by him, in a dialogue in which an Oscan, a Volscian and a Roman are introduced as interlocutors (1531). Accorso was accused of plagiarism in his notes on
Ausonius
 , a charge which he most solemnly and energetically repudiated.
