The barratry of the shipmaster in early modern law: polysemy and mos Italicus
2019
Summary ‘Barratry’ is a polysemic term: it means deceit, bribe, simony, and fraud of the shipmaster. This article seeks to trace the origins of the word and to explore its different meanings, focusing especially on the influence that older meanings had on the development of more recent ones. This operation is of particular importance to understand the meaning of barratry that would appear for last – that of fraud of the shipmaster. By the time civil lawyers started dealing with maritime barratry, they were already well familiar with the other meanings of the term. This probably favoured the adaptation process, but it also left a deep mark on its outcome: the weight of those other meanings o…

Problematical aspects of the remedial perspective
2009
Il saggio analizza la c.d. prospettiva rimediale tipica del common law alla luce della sua diffusione sempre crescente nella dottrina e nella giurisprudenza italiane così da verificarne le possibili forme d’uso in un sistema come quello italiano che poggia sulla legge scritta ed è informato alla logica della sussunzione. L’Autore rinviene profili di incompatibilità tra l’approccio rimediale, da un lato, e la struttura del sistema giuridico italiano, dall’altro lato, e tutto ciò conduce, dunque, a suggerire un’adesione alla tecnica rimediale in termini, per così dire, «filtrati», così da sottoporne l’ingresso nell’ordinamento al vaglio di integrabilità nel sistema. Un esempio in tal senso, m…

Civilians and Insurance: Approximations of Reality to the Law
2015
In the study of the history of insurance, much attention has been paid to early modem jurists. Their importance as a source for the study of the subject is, however, debatable. Early modem jurists were more interested in systematising insurance than in describ ing it for what it was. Their main effort lay in explaining this non-Roman contract in Roman law terms. To do so, something had to be sacrificed - reality
