Ser Lapo Mazzei (1350-1412) a winemaker from Carmignano is considered father of the Chianti name. The extraordinary Fonterutoli estate in Chianti has been owned by the Mazzei family since 1435 and has passed down through 24 generations. The Mazzei family's winemaking influence has extended far beyond the realm of Tuscany. In 1774, Filippo Mazzei (1730-1816) was asked by his friend Thomas Jefferson to plant a vineyard at the Jefferson estate in Monticello, Virginia. Jefferson was inspired not only by Filippo's (Philip's) viticultural knowledge but also by his ideas regarding equality. The great doctrine All men are created equal which was incorporated into the Declaration of Independence by Jefferson, was paraphrased from the writing of Philip Mazzei. Philip's highly significant contributions to Italian American culture and philosophy were commemorated on a U.S. postage stamp entitled Patriot Remembered.

    The Circulating Medium of Exchange in Colonial Pennsylvania, 1729-1775: * New Estimates of Monetary Composition and Economic Growth Farley Grubb Economics Dept.

The Circulating Medium of Exchange in Colonial Pennsylvania, 1729-1775: * New Estimates of Monetary Composition and Economic Growth Market transaction data are used to estimate the composition and quantity of specie in circulation. This estimate is used to provide the first comprehensive measure of the colony's money supply. This estimate, along with data on population and prices, is used to measure the growth in output using the quantity theory of money. Output growth is found to depend on periodization and the extent to which rising commercialization increased the velocity of circulation. Specie was scarce but becoming less so as the Revolution approached, and specie and paper currency were both substitutes and complements depending on the period of analysis. Nobody knows the amount of specie in circulation in colonial America. The absence of this one piece of information has left unanswered a number of important questions about how colonial economies worked. One such question is whether specie was scarce in colonial America. Some writers believe it was scarce (Brock 1975, pp. 86, 267, 386; Bouton 1996; Lester 1938; Walton and Shepard 1979, pp.

  • How Cesare Beccaria Shaped American Law
    INCONTRO –DIBATTITO Dei delitti e delle pene: giustizia ed economia politica Roma, 26 novembre 2014 How Cesare Beccaria Shaped American Law By John D. Bessler How Cesare Beccaria Shaped American Law By John D. Bessler The year 2014 marks the 250th anniversary of the publication of Cesare Beccaria’s Dei delitti e delle pene (1764), the first Enlightenment text to make a comprehensive case against the death penalty. The ideas in the book famously led Leopold II—the Grand Duke of Tuscany—to abolish the death penalty in that dominion in 1786, just a year before the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia that produced the U.S. Constitution. What is less well known is that Beccaria’s book, translated into English as On Crimes and Punishments in 1767, had a profound impact on early American leaders and laws. Beccaria never traveled to America, but his ideas for law reform reached American soil as part of the transatlantic book trade. He called for clear and precise written laws, proportionality between crimes and punishments, and an end to torture and capital punishment. Those ideas inspired American revolutionaries and the U.S. Constitution and its Bill of Rights—written documents protecting individual rights. George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison—the first four U.S. Presidents—all admired On Crimes and Punishments, as did signers of the Declaration of Independence such as Dr. Benjamin Rush, the Philadelphia physician and anti-gallows activist. George Washington, America’s first commander- in-chief, bought Beccaria’s book in 1769; during the Revolutionary War (1775-1783), he said executions were too frequent and called the law of retaliation—torture and capital punishment—“abhorrent and disagreeable to our natures.” Thomas Jefferson and John Adams read Beccaria’s book in the original Italian, and Adams gave a copy of the book to his son.

  • Aufsätze Die Amerikanische Revolution in Der Polnischen Publizistik Während Des Großen Oder Vierjährigen Sejm
    Aufstze Die amerikanische Revolution in der polnischen Publizistik whrend des Groen oder Vierjhri en Sejm (Sejm Wielki oder Czteroletni) 1788-1792 Zugleich eine Einleitung zur Osteuropasektion des Passauer Rechtshistorikertages vom 9. September 2008 von Ulrike Müßig I. Einleitung Westeuropäische Verfassungshistoriker sind mit nationalstaatlicher Homo- genität und Konkurrenz vertraut1, weniger mit multiethnischen Reichsver- bänden oder supranationalen Völkerrechtssubjekten. Letztere stehen im Mit- telpunkt osteuropahistorischer Studien zum Zarenreich, zum Habsburgerreich oder zum Osmanischen Reich. Der Blickwinkel scheint verschieden: Der westeuropäische Fokus richtet sich auf Führungsrollen, etwa auf die kultu- relle Pionierrolle Italiens während der Renaissance, die ideengeschichtliche Vorreiterrolle Großbritanniens während der Parlamentskämpfe gegen die Stuarts, die verfassungspolitische Modellwirkung des revolutionären und napoleonischen Frankreichs oder die wirtschaftliche Pionierrolle Großbri- tanniens in der Industrialisierung. Die osteuropäische Forschung interessiert sich dagegen eher für historische Räume zur Bezeichnung kontinuierlicher Verbindungslinien hinter veränderlichen Staatsgrenzen: Nordosteuropa, Ost- mitteleuropa, Osteuropa und Südosteuropa. Die geschichtswissenschaftliche Definition historischer Großregionen soll Berufeneren überlassen bleiben. Hier geht es um die Neugewichtung osteuropäischer Perspektiven in der vergleichenden Verfassungsgeschichte, um die „Grundlagen für ein neues 1 Vgl. beispielhaft die Geschichte

  • Italo-Americans in Pennsylvania in the Eighteenth Century
    ITALO-AMERICANS IN PENNSYLVANIA IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY By HOWARD R. MARRARO Columbia University, New York City T HE story of the Italians who came to America during the Teighteenth century is gradually being told, especially with reference to those who took an active part in the public life of the period. We owe to the diligent and painstaking labors of scholars and students the information that has come to light on the r6les played by such men as Mazzei, Vigo, Father Chino, Beltrami, and Busti. Doubtless, further researches will illustrate more fully the parts these and other Italians played in American life. However, little or nothing is known concerning a larger number of Italians who settled in America in the eighteenth century, who in various ways also contributed to the life of the community in which they settled. The information on this group of Italians is so scarce that the following notes will, it is hoped, prove of general interest. It must be remembered, however, that in the eighteenth century, the number of Italians who crossed the Atlantic was very small. For example, in 1790, in New York and Philadelphia, which were the largest cities of America with a population of 33,131 and 28,522 inhabitants respectively, there were only about twenty Italians in the former and not more than eight in the latter city listed in the directories of the period. An Italian traveller who left a two-volume record' of his voyage in the United States immediately after the Revolution was Count Luigi Castiglioni, a Milanese patrician, Chevalier of the Order of St.

  • Philip Mazzei, the Pragmatic Propagandist Francesca Genesio Aix Marseille Université, LERMA, Aix-En-Provence, France When I
    Philip Mazzei, the Pragmatic Propagandist Francesca Genesio Aix Marseille Université, LERMA, Aix-en-Provence, France When I embarked on the fascinating project of discovering Philip Mazzei, I was presented with the four volumes of his Recherches Historiques et Politiques sur les Etats-Unis de l’Amérique Septentrionale, which constitute his most ambitious work. Written in Italian between 1785 and 1787 during Mazzei’s second stay in Paris and translated into French for publication in 17881, the Recherches were originally intended as a refutation of Mably’s Observations sur le gouvernement et les loix des Etats-Unis d’Amérique (1784) which Mazzei had already attacked in an earlier essay criticizing the Abbé’s lack of familiarity with all things American2. Mably had never been to America but was writing about the nascent republic’s history and constitutional laws with an air of authority that Mazzei had trouble accepting. His similar criticism of Raynal’s analysis of American history and institutions in his Histoire philosophique et politique des établissements et du commerce des Européens dans les deux Indes brought Mazzei to extend his refutation to the work of the second Abbot as well. The necessity of ‘setting the record straight’ so as to provide European readers with what he believed to be an accurate account of America’s call for freedom expanded the work to include another two volumes dedicated to retracing the history of colonial America from its establishment to independence, and to discussing the state of affairs in contemporary American society by addressing a number of key issues such as paper money, national debt, commerce, immigration, slavery, the new Federal Constitution etc3.

  • Mazzei a Tale of Two Patriots Who Loved Wine and Freedom
    Thomas Jefferson & Philip Mazzei a tale of two patriots who loved wine and freedom Monticello and Mazzei The inspiration for the layout and architecture of Thomas Jefferson’s mountain-top home, Monticello, are clearly Italian. There is also ample evidence to suggest that Jefferson’s long conversation with his Florentine-born neighbor, a talkative Italian wine merchant named Philip Mazzei, inspired the language used in the Declaration of Independence. In an article translated by Jefferson, Mazzei wrote, “all men are by nature equally free and independent”. Phillip Mazzei appeared at Monticello in the winter of 1774, accompanied by Jefferson’s London merchant-agent, Thomas Adams. He became a houseguest at Monticello, brightening the last two months of 1774, for Jefferson, who had lost his sister Elizabeth (age 29) earlier that year. Mazzei, then 43, had been trained a surgeon in Florence, worked as a ship’s doctor, then practiced in the Middle East before settling in London, where he had been a wine merchant for many years. A well-known horticulturalist, he had sailed to Virginia to introduce the culture of grapes, olives and whatever fruit trees would flourish there, and had brought his own crew of Italian vineyard workers with him. Jefferson indulged some of his favorite activities: building, gardening, buying and selling land. He drew up the charter of a joint stock company for his new friend and neighbor, Philip Mazzei, buying a fifty-pound sterling share in a scheme to cultivate silk, grow wine grapes, and raise olive trees on Mazzei’s slopes near Monticello, all without slave labor and relying on Italian vineyard workers imported from Tuscany.
