About Tommaso Diplovataccio

  • Tommaso Diplovataccio or Diplovatazio (Greek: T?µ?? ??p??ßat?t???; 1468–1541) was a Greco-Italian jurist, publisher and politician. His family was Greek nobility that emigrated from Corfu to Naples after the fall of Constantinople.
  • After studies in Naples (where he married Maria Laskaris), in Padua and Ferrara, he held the office of fiscal in Pesaro from 1492 to 1507.
  • The wealth he obtained by a 1494 marriage to a trader's daughter allowed him to reduce his work as a jurisconsult and concentrate on scholarly pursuits.
  • From 1504 to 1508 he compiled the Chronicon Pisauri, a compilation of notes about legal sources that are now lost.
  • In 1511 he finished the Tractatus de praestantia doctorum, a biographical treatise on the most influential jurists of Antiquity and the Middle Ages. In 1517, Diplovataccio moved to Venice, where, as a publisher of note, he edited De regulis iuris of Dinus, the Commentaria of de Tartagnis and the works of Bartolus, among others.
  • On behalf of the city, he compiled two histories of Venice.
  • Disappointed by their meager success, he moved back to Pesaro, where he spent his last years as an influential member of the city's senate.
