He witnessed and was deeply affected by the French Revolution, residing in Paris for ten months during 1789.[3] He later spent time in England and Austria. A Romantic poet, he was principally influenced by Ugo Foscolo and Thomas Gray, and was associated with the Della Cruscans. He devoted much of his life to a translation of the Odyssey, which was published in 1822.[4]
