Luigi Scevola (born Brescia, 1770 - died Milan, 1819) was an Italian dramatist. He wrote in the style of Ugo Foscolo, and was the author of the tragedies Socrate (1804), Annibale in Bitinia (1806) and Saffo (1814). One of his plays was the basis of the libretti for Giulietta e Romeo by Nicola Vaccai and I Capuleti e i Montecchi by Vincenzo Bellini.
