Biagio Cusano (died Naples, 11 January 1683) was an Italian Marinist poet and professor of law. The date of his birth is currently unknown. He is best known for being Gennaro Cusano's uncle and Marcello Papiniano Cusani's grand uncle.

## 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). He apparently died of apoplexy (stroke) in 1683. He wrote many works, both published and unpublished.
