  • Lorenzo Magalotti (Rome, October 24, 1637 – Florence, March 2, 1712) was an Italian philosopher, author, diplomat and poet. Magalotti grew up into an artistocratic family: his uncle Lorenzo Magalotti was a member of the Roman Curia. His cousin Filippo was rector at University of Pisa. The Jesuit Magalotti became the secretary of the Accademia del cimento and a gazeteer of the sciences. Magalotti started off as one of the most ardent worshippers of Galileo Galilei but was increasinly distressed by the personal rivalries among the individual members, which constantly undermined the academy's dedication to collective research. Gradually Magalotti lost interest in science. He became a traveller, an ambassador and ended up as a poet. He translated Paradise Lost by John Milton, and Cyder by John Philips into Italian.
