Girolamo Nuzio Muzio (Or Mutio) [1]

Muzio (or Mutio), Girolamo Nuzio

an Italian writer, noted for his opposition to the Reformation and its adherents, and hence surnamed "Malleus Hereticonsum," was born at Padua in 1496 and died in 1576. He wrote several polemical treatises against Luther, and various other works in prose and verse, none of which are of any value in our day except as literary curiosities. See Tiraboschi, Storia della Litterature Italiana, s.v.
