Capuana, Luigi

Born May 28, 1839, in Mineo, Catania Province, Sicily; died Nov. 29, 1915, in Catania. Italian critic and writer.

Capuana was a professor of Italian literature at the Pedagogic Institute in Rome and, from 1902, at the University of Catania. An adherent of the verismo literary movement, he expounded its theoretical program in Essays on Modem Literature (1879–82) and On Art (1885). Strongly influenced by French naturalism, Capuana insisted that Italian literature have a national character and originality.
