Dialect? um, maybe-this is literary Italian, it's from a play, maybe in the commedia dell'arte genre, so I'll take a stab and say Venice- and if I'm right, then this could be the playwright Goldoni, bits of his works one sees in place names all over Venice.

Which Goldoni play is this?
This is interesting. I met this guy a few years ago. He's a playwright and also translates plays and puts them performances of his own translations. I went to a Goldoni production ("Mistress of the Inn"
-- I doubt that he translated it from Venetian though. If so, I'm really impressed.

Wow. Interesting. And Goldoni is very prolific too.
By the way, as I was recently reminded, you can use "makeshorterlink" to make your links shorter:
http://makeashorterlink.com/?H5876557A
will take you to your same page (and shorter links work a little better with formatting and cutting and pasting).
