Cino da Pistoia
(redirected from Cinus de Pistoia)

    Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.08 sec.

Cino da Pistoia (c. 1265–c. 1336)

Italian poet and jurist. His love lyrics, although generally classified as belonging to the dolce stil nuovo (the sweet new style, characterized by clarity and philosophical treatment), anticipate in some respects those of Petrarch.

Cino played an active part in the political struggles of his time, holding public office in his native city of Pistoia, but also experiencing exile. He also taught and practised law in numerous Italian cities.
