experts and wearied the general public, with perhaps more
sentimental
declamations
than positive contributions; a question
revived by the positive school, which, however, only brought it

new Italian penal code, which is the first code amongst the
leading States to decree (January 1, 1890) the legal abolition of
the death penalty, after its virtual abolition in Italy since the
year 1876, except for military crimes.
