Marius Nizolius (Italian: Mario Nizolio; 1498–1576) was an Italian humanist scholar, known as a proponent of Cicero.
He considered rhetoric to be the central intellectual discipline, slighting other aspects of the philosophical tradition.
He is described by Michael R.
Allen as the heir to the oratorical vision of Lorenzo Valla, and a better nominalist.
