Gozzi's works were reprinted posthumously by A. Dalmistro in twelve volumes in 1794. Gasparo Gozzi was among the leading exponents of the Accademia dei Granelleschi and achieved notoriety in the field of Dante studies with his Difesa di Dante (1758) written in polemic with S. Bettinelli. A very prolific author due in part to perennial financial difficulties (he wrote dramas, chicalatas for the Accademia dei Granelleschi, reports, burlesque verse, occasional poems, satires and letters), he personally edited two highly successful biweeklies, the Gazzetta veneta and the Osservatore veneto, and staged several comedies and tragedies at the Teatro Sant'Angelo, which he ran for years with his wife. He also received several public offices, including superintendent of printing and speaker for the reform of schools after the suppression of the Jesuits (1773). In 1777 he attempted suicide by throwing himself into the Bacchiglione torrent in Padua. When his wife died, he remarried the Parisian Sara Cénet, with whom he shared his last years in illness (D. Proietti, Gozzi, Gasparo, in: “Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani”, vol. 58, 2002, s.v.). Italian Union Catalogue, IT\ICCU\TO0E\040313.
