## Biography[edit]

Born in Monza, in the Duchy of Milan, in 1589, he studied literature and philosophy at the Jesuit Brera school in Milan. He returned home, and upon the death of his father he married Giacinta Bagliani. After the death of his wife he chose the ecclesiastical state, and resumed his studies, receiving a degree in canon law and theology.[1] Ghilini was a member of the Accademia degli Incogniti of Venice.He died in December 1668, (Theatre of Men of Letters), a biographical dictionary illustrious men. The first part of this work was printed at Milan in 1633. A second enlarged edition was published in Venice, in 1647, in two volumes.[2] Ghilini used sources available to him in Latin, including John Pitts' Relationum historicarum de rebus anglicis, published in paris in 1619.[3] Adrien Baillet es­teemed this work is for its exactness, According to Bernard de La Monnoye, however, excepting a few articles, Ghilini's Theatro is an uncritical work.[2] The Theatro is an important source of knowledge of Italian XVII century writers, and is still quoted to this day.
