Biography
Antonio Riccoboni was born in Rovigo. First making his life as a tutor, he moved in 1570 to Venice and Padua to study at the University under Paolo Manuzio, Marc-Antoine Muret, and Carlo Sigonio. By 1571, he had been granted a doctorate in civil law, and soon after degrees in canonl law. The next year he obtained a post as professor rhetoric at the university, succeeding Giovanni Fasolo.
Among his works were comments regarding the Poetics and Nicomachean Ethics of Aristotle. He also published De Gymnasio Patavino (1598) about the University of Padua. He was among those to claim as fraudulent the Consolatio of Cicero published by Sigonio. Riccoboni died in Padua.[1]
