Basilio Zanchi
Basilio Zanchi (c. 1501 in Bergamo – 1558 in Castel Sant'Angelo) was a 16th-century Italian humanist and scholar.
He was keen in Latin poetry and was a canon in Letran and later a Vatican librarian.
He was imprisoned in Rome because he disobeyed the Pope Paul VI, probably because he accepted some Protestantism theories.
