Antonio Fogazzaro

Died in 1911

Antonio Fogazzaro (died 1911) was born in Vicenza on 25 March 1842, the son of Mariano Fogazzaro and Teresa Barrera. He studied law in Turin. After a long religious crisis, he returned to the Catholic faith in 1873, and then sought to reconcile the idea of evolution with the doctrine of the Church. Appointed senator in 1896, he saw one of his last novels condemned and placed on the Index. He died in Vicenza on 7 March 1911, in the city where he was born.
