The Nice-born jurist Giovanni de Foresta is a little-known and little-studied figure, despite his considerable contribution to the cause of the unity of Italy. A supporter of Cavour, he sat in the Subalpine Chamber for two legislatures, the IV and the V, and held two important government's positions: he was Minister of Grace and Justice in the first D'Azeglio government and in the second Cavour government, around the time in that the laws "Siccardi" were in force. My paper aims to explain how De Foresta tried to develop his draft bills of renewal of justice and the judicial system during these two ministerial mandates. First of all, the bill, concerning some restrictions on the freedom of the press, which was converted into law on 26 February 1852: the ensuing parliamentary debate led to the fracture of the right and gave rise to the alliance between Rattazzi and Cavour for the formation of a progressive government. Later is illustrated the work carried out by De Foresta in the years 1855-59 for the updating of the codification of the Kingdom of Sardinia through the elaboration of a new code of civil procedure and the revision of the penal codes, which in 1860 replaced the Albertine ones. Finally, is presented the contribution given in 1858 by De Foresta to the alliance with France – deemed indispensable by Cavour to achieve the unity of Italy – when as Minister of Justice, to meet the requests of the French government, pushed through Parliament the laws on sanctions to be imposed on conspirators against foreign heads of state. ; Il giurista nizzardo Giovanni de Foresta è un personaggio poco noto e pochissimo studiato, nonostante il suo notevole apporto dato alla causa dell'unità d'Italia. Sostenitore di Cavour, sedette alla Camera subalpina per due legislature, la IV e la V, e rivestì due importanti incarichi di governo: fu ministro di Grazia e Giustizia sia nel primo governo D'Azeglio sia nel secondo governo Cavour, nel periodo di entrata in vigore delle leggi Siccardi. Oggetto di questo articolo sono i progetti elaborati da De Foresta durante questi due incarichi ministeriali. Innanzitutto il progetto che si tradusse nella legge del 26 febbraio 1852 sull'introduzione di misure restrittive della libertà di stampa: il dibattito parlamentare che ne seguì portò alla frattura della destra e alla stagione del "connubio" Cavour-Rattazzi. Successivamente viene illustrata l'opera svolta da De Foresta negli anni 1855-59 per il rinnovamento della codificazione del Regno di Sardegna attraverso l'apertura di un cantiere sia per l'elaborazione del codice di procedura civile sia per la revisione dei codici penali, che nel 1860 sostituirono quelli albertini. È infine presentato il contributo dato nel 1858 da De Foresta all'alleanza con la Francia, ritenuta indispensabile da Cavour per realizzare l'unità d'Italia, quando il Guardasigilli, per venire incontro alle richieste del governo francese, fece approvare dal Parlamento subalpino la legge sulle sanzioni da infliggere ai cospiratori contro i capi di stato stranieri.

This book is the result of discussions that took place during the XXIII Forum of the Association of Young Legal Historians held in Naples in the spring of 2017. ; The collection of thirty-five essays presented here examines the links forged through the ages between the realm of law and the expressions of the humanistic culture. The essays are organized into sections of ten chapters based around ten different themes. Two main perspectives emerged: in some articles the topic relates to the conventional approach of 'law and/in humanities' (iconography, literature, architecture, cinema, music), other articles are about more traditional connections between fields of knowledge (in particular, philosophy, political experiences, didactics). The variety of authorial nationalities gives the collection a multicultural character and the historiographical interpretation is the element that unites the collection, with a breadth of the chronological period goes from antiquity to the contemporary age.
