Bernardino Baldi, born in Urbino on 5 June 1553 and dead in 1617, was an Italian mathematician, poet, translator and priest from a noble family of the Marche. He studied at Padua, tutored Ferrante Gonzaga, held the abbey of Guastalla for twenty-five years and acted as the duke of Urbino's envoy to Venice in 1612. He is said to have written upwards of a hundred works, most of them unpublished, covering theology, mathematics, geography, history and poetry, and to have spoken some sixteen languages. His Cronica dei Matematici, a collection of lives of mathematicians from antiquity to his own time, was modelled on Vasari's Lives. He also wrote the oldest biography of Copernicus, completed in 1588.
