Le due colpe

About the author
Born in Rome on July 9, 1861, Giuseppe De Rossi was an Italian writer whose career ranged across novels, plays, and journalism. Italian reference pages identify him as a novelist and dramatist, and public-domain catalog records preserve works such as Le due colpe and Quando il sogno è finito.
He came from a family with notable cultural roots in Rome, and sources describe him as active in literary life from the late 19th century into the first half of the 20th. His writing is associated with everyday settings and moral or social tensions, which helps explain why his books still surface in library and archival collections.
De Rossi died on January 18, 1945. While he is not widely known in English today, the surviving records suggest a versatile author who worked across several forms and left behind a small but lasting trail in Italian literary history.
