Autografo". Girolamo Baruffaldi (born in Ferrara in 1675, died in Cento in 1755) was an Italian priest, poet, playwright and historian of the XVIII century. After embracing the ecclesiastical career, Girolamo Baruffaldi studied archaeology and history, and devoted himself mainly to poetry. He was a professor of belles-lettres and vicar-general in Ferrara, and set up a small academy in his home under the title of the "Vigna". He also worked as an archivist as apostolic prothonotary (he was accused of forgery, having circulated falsified archives) before becoming dean of Pieve di Cento under the protection of Cardinal Lambertini (future Pope Benedict XIV).
