«L'Aretino» is the biography of Pietro Aretino written by Cesare Marchi, published by Rizzoli in paperback (290 pages, in Italian).
Starting from Paolo Giovio's epitaph, the book portrays Pietro Aretino as a writer, poet, friend of painters and adviser to sovereigns, famous for his sharp tongue. Marchi avoids the cliché of the slanderer and analyses the causes of his literary and social success in imperial 16th-century Venice, where he shaped customs and excesses.
Part of the Biblioteca Universale Rizzoli collection (Supersaggi series). Edition published in 1989.
