***Important unpublished work by Pietro Ranucci, Professor of Criminal Law at Pisa University. He was one of the main inspirers of the so-called ‘Fernandina’, a measure that reintroduced the capital punishment in Tuscany for the acts of terrorism or subversion. The work was written in the last year of his teaching. It consists of three parts, concerning a number of criminal cases, from the general definition of the crime to the sentence and its execution. Ranucci also wrote ‘De iure naufragii’ (1778), and ‘Observations over the fidecommessi’ (1791).
