John Cigala (born at Nicosia 1622). He studied at the College of Saint Athanasios, Rome (1635-1642), which he graduated as Doctor of Philosophy and Theology and at which he taught Greek successfully for eight years (1642-1650). From Rome he moved to Venice, where he practised law for a short time, therefore he may have also studied law. - In 1666 he was appointed Professor of Philosophy and Logic at the University of Padova. In 1678 he was appointed Professor to the second chair of Philosophy of the same University and in 1687 (214) to the first. From some time before 1678 he had also been censor of the books published by the S. Ufficio, Venice, which presupposed his Catholic loyalty, actually praised by D' Alviani. His Greek and theological wisdom, his modesty, piety and other humane virtues are praised by Petin, Nicholas Bouboulios and D' Alviani. In 1685 he appears as bestman at the marriage of Antonia daughter of Const. Tzane the Cretan painter to Mario Botza. What has survived of his work as a number of epigrams published in books of other scholars. Because of his duties as censor he seems to have lived in Venice from time to time. He died on the 5/11/1687.
