Antonio Abati (late 16th century-1667) was an Italian baroque poet. He was a member of several Italian literary academies, including the Umoristi (the Humorists), where he read his satire Ragguaglio di Parnaso (“Report from Parnassus”), dedicated to the bad poets of the times. Between 1634 and 1638, Abati was in Viterbo, where he made the acquaintance of Salvator Rosa. Rosa was in large part inspired to become a satirist by his example. His satires were first published in Venice in 1651 and reprinted several times thereafter.
