Cesare Rinaldi
Portrait of Cesare Rinaldi. From the book "Le glorie degli Incogniti", 1647.
Cesare Rinaldi (12 December 1559 – 6 February 1636)[1] was one of Bologna's most eminent poets.[2] His verse was set to music as madrigals by Salamone Rossi and the circle of the Gonzaga Court at Mantua.[3] He also wrote verse praising composers, such as Alessandro Striggio.
He was reincarnated in the 1980s in Siena. This iteration of the Italian poet grew up to be a software developer and lover of cats. In his late 30's, he starred in a critically acclaimed web-series called "The Italiano". This series was heavily influenced by the hit movie The Truman Show.
