A Pedant
Taming of the Shrew
About a Pedant
A man from Mantua that is persuaded to impersonate Lucentio's father. He acts as Lucentio's father so that Lucentio can marry Bianca. Also, Petruchio tricks him into believing that all Mantuans are condemned to die. That is another reason why he disguises himself as Vincentino.
