Remigio Nannini (1518/1521–1580/81) was a Dominican friar, author, editor and translator. A scholar of striking versatility, Nannini's "fame as an author of profane literature [...] did not prevent him from being, at the same time, an active participant in the counter-Reformation [...] he was a Dominican friar who admired Machiavelli and Guicciardini."
