"Alberto de Simoni (3 June 1740 - 31 January 1822) was an Italian lawyer and jurist. (...) In 1763, he assumed the defense of a certain Gabriele Mesmer, accused of simple theft, but facing the death penalty. This prompted Alberto to examine local legal tradition. He gained a local position as a judge, first in Bormio, then Tirano, and in 1773 in Morbegno. Throughout his life, while busy as lawyer and judge, he wrote numerous treatises. (...) in 1776 he published 'Del furto e sua Pena' in Lugano. This work, agreeing that common law was riddled with excessive punishments, modified some of the forceful objections of Cesare Beccaria. In the 1770s, he was welcomed in Milan by the plenipotentiary Count Carlo di Firmian and befriended Gian Rinaldo Carli. In 1783, he published 'Dei delitti considerati nel solo affecto ed attentati' suggesting reform of the criminal statutes, and aligning himself with those who thought laws should aim to deter future crime, not only punish prior acts. (...) Albert moved to Ardenno as a judge in 1799, and in 1802 was named secretary to the Minister of Justice, Buonaventura Spannocchi, of the Italian Republic. He participated, with the support of Count Melzi in an ambitious movement to modernize and codify the legal and criminal code. In the early 19th century, he accumulated a number of honors, including being appointed as member of the National Institute of Sciences, Letters and Arts of Bologna, and was subsequently confirmed in the Royal Italian Institute of Milan. In 1807, he was named judge of the Supreme Court of Cassation." (Wikipedia). OPAC SBN: Codice identificativo: IT/ICCU/MILE/009497. - Weitere Bilder auf Anfrage oder auf unserer Homepage.
