Summary

Written by one of Italy<U+0146>s leading historians, this book analyses the context and legacy of Gaetano Filangieri<U+0146>s seven-volume <U+0145>Science of Legislation<U+0146>. This study engages with the unique history of Enlightenment Naples, the intellectual traditions upon which Filangieri drew, and the powerful repercussions of the American Revolution in eighteenth-century Italy to re-draw the map of Enlightenment republicanism and the early history of human rights and their political economy.--
