The Marchese Cesare Lucchesini (2 July 1756 – 16 May 1832) was an Italian statesman and philologist.

A scholarly work focused on the historical and critical analysis of ancient and modern languages, specifically Italian, written in the early 19th century. The book delves into the complexities and interrelations of various languages, addressing the contributions of several scholars and outlining their efforts to elucidate these languages. At the start of the book, Lucchesini emphasizes the significance of studying languages, particularly in the context of understanding cultural and historical movements. He discusses the challenges faced by scholars in illustrating less commonly understood languages and frameworks for categorizing and analyzing linguistic similarities. He references various authors and their attempts to connect different languages through historical grammar and etymology, setting the stage for a broader exploration of linguistic relationships and their implications for understanding migration and cultural evolution.
