Leone Emanuele Bardare

Leone Emanuele Bardare (born Naples, c. 1820 – died there after 1874) was an Italian poet. He completed the libretto to Giuseppe Verdi's Il trovatore after the death (in 1852) of its original librettist Salvadore Cammarano.[1] Bardare also crafted a new libretto, titled Clara di Perth, for Rigoletto in an attempt to placate the Neapolitan censors.
