Importante recensione di Francesco Fuoco in edizione originale, dedicata all'opera di Lallebasque. Filologo, pedagogista ma, soprattutto economista, fu costretto in varie occasioni all'esilio a causa delle sue idee liberali. Nel 1824, esule in toscana, inizio' la sua collaborazione con il Nuovo giornale de' letterati. ITA.

First edition, presentation copy, inscribed in Fuoco's hand on the initial blank in vol. I "Messieurs les Directeurs du Bulletin Universel des Sciences et de l'industrie, de la part de l'auteur". The journal Bulletin universel des sciences et de l'industrie favourably reviewed the work (the first volume noted in Tome Trioiseme, 1825, p. 366, the second volume more lengthily reviewed, Tome Huitième, 1826, pp. 65-70). Fuoco (1774-1841) "possessed above any of his contemporaries a keen spirit, apt to study, suited to economic investigation; but never enjoyed the comfort of seeing his works valued in their true light. Fuoco treated all the most important theories of economic science. He was was the first in Italy to acknowledge the importance of Ricardo's theory of rent, - which he fully supports, particularly fixing attention on the rent derived through situation. He also discussed coinage and bank questions, especially in one of those works (La magia del credito svelata) which he sold under the burden of want to Giuseppe de Welz of Como, who published it under his own name. Fuoco had written this work to support the financial policy of the minister Medici. In this work he proved, with great brilliancy, that credit multiplies capital" (Palgrave). The work is "concerned with the practical problem of directing and promoting the development of a backward economy, with great stress on the protection of industry and on the creation of credit" (Porta, p. 65). Fuoco is "the first author to have gone systematically into the literature of mathematical economics available then and to have presented a systematic defence of the application of mathematical methods in economic analysis" (Theocaris). The sheets were re-issued under the title Principii fondamentali di economia pubblica e di finanze in 1840 (see Kress Italian 1055). Einaudi 1562; Goldsmiths' 24168; Kress Italian 865 (lacking the half-titles); Mattioli 935; Palgrave II, p.169.
