Stefano Fieschi (Latin Stephanus Fliscus or Philiscus) of Soncino, was a 15th-century Italian scholar, episcopal secretary, and pedagogue.
Biography
Fliscus was a student of the famous rhetorician Gasparino Barzizza from about 1429–1430.[1] He was a secretary to Zenone Castiglione, bishop of Lisieux.[1]
Works
Fliscus is best known for his Sententiarum variationes seu Synonyma, a collection of sentences in Latin and other languages as an aid for letter-writing.[2] This popular collection was republished as part of Albrecht von Eyb's Praecepta artis rhetoricae and Margarita poetica.[3] Succeeding editions included German, Italian, Dutch, French, and Spanish sentence equivalents.[2] The Spanish version was printed by Antonio de Nebrija's publisher.[2] Fliscus also published a version under the title De componendis epistolis.[2]
