one of the earliest Italian lexicographers, from whose name came the once-common Italian word calepino and English word calepin, for “dictionary.” He became an Augustinian monk and compiled a dictionary of Latin and several other languages, published at Reggio nell'Emilia (1502). Later other languages were added until, in an edition published at Basel, Switz. (1590), 11 languages were represented, including Polish and Hungarian.
