Erminia Fuà-Fusinato (1834–1876)

Fuà-Fusinato, Erminia (fwä’fö-sēn-ä-tō). An Italian poetess, wife of the poet Arnaldo Fusinato; born of Jewish parents at Rovigo, Oct. 5, 1834; died in Rome, Sept. 27, 1876. Her spirited appeals to national sentiment in 1848 brought her into notice. In 1852 was published her ‘Verses and Flowers.’ She wrote a series of ‘Stornelli,’ advocating Florence as the national capital instead of Rome. Her complete poetical works, ‘Versi,’ were published in 1879; her ‘Literary Writings’ in 1883.
