Ireneo della Croce

Ireneo della Croce (1625–1713)[1] was a Carmelite preacher and chronicler.[2][3] della Croce was born in Trieste.[3] He lived in the monasteries of Venice and Padova, but visited his hometown frequently. His magnum opus (Historia antica e moderna, sacra e profana ... della città di Trieste ... fin'a quest'anno 1698)[4][5] was printed in Venice with funds from the Trieste Comune and some private citizens.[3] In spite of its title, the book stopped in the year 1000. A second part, which chronicled Trieste up to 1702, was published in 1881.[3] della Croce's early attestations of the Istro-Romanians and their language are relevant in academic research.[6][7] della Croce died in Venice in 1713.[3]

A street in Trieste was dedicated to him.[8]
