Tifi Odasi

Very little is known of his biography. Born and died at Padua, Tifi is best known as the author of Macaronea, a burlesque poem mixing Latin and Italian dialects (Tuscan and Venetian of Padua). It is one of the earliest examples --- and the namesake --- of macaronic verse .

Tifi has also been conjectured to be the author of another work in macaronic Latin, Nobile Vigoncae opus ("The Work of Noble Vigonza"), but that attribution is not widely accepted.
