Biography

Born in Vitulano, in Principato Ultra, Kingdom of Naples, Cusano became professor of canon law, Cattedra primaria de' Canoni della mattina, after Giuseppe Pulcarelli was promoted to Giulio Capone's position in 1673 (right after Giulio Capone's death).[4][5][6] He apparently died of apoplexy (stroke) in 1683.[6] He wrote many works, both published and unpublished.[6]
