Encyclopædia Britannica, via WWW, 22 September 2016 (Lodovico Castelvetro; born c. 1505 in Modena, died February 21, 1571 in Chiavenna; a dominant literary critic of the Italian Renaissance, particularly noted for his translation of and independently rendered conclusions from Aristotle's Poetics, in which he defended the dramatic unities of time, place, and action, as well as the use of poetry for pleasure alone; he thereby helped set the critical norms for drama in the Renaissance and the French Neoclassical period)
