Vincenzo Berni degli Antoni (25 April 1747 – 4 March 1828) was an Italian jurist and writer.
Biography
[edit]Vincenzo Berni degli Antoni was born in Bologna on 25 April 1747. His father, Francesco Berni degli Antoni, was an eminent jurist.[2]
Vincenzo studied law in the university of his native city, with the reputation of a promising young man, and soon after taking his degree was appointed professor of civil law. From this post he was promoted to be auditor to the papal legates Giovanni Andrea Archetti and Ippolito Antonio Vincenti.[1]
In 1798, he was exiled for refusing to take the oath of allegiance to the republican government established by the French in the Papal States.[1]
In 1799, he was named a member of the regency established at Rome by the Austrians.[2] He submitted to the government established by the French on their second invasion; he accepted the appointment of commissary-general of finance of the Cispadane Republic, and after the creation of the Kingdom of Italy was nominated by Napoleon procurator for the king in the court of Cassation, and a knight of the Order of the Iron Crown.[1]
On the re-establishment of the papal government, Antoni was offered the appointment of president of the court of appeal by Pope Pius VII, but declined it on account of his age and infirmities.[2] He died in Bologna in 1828.[1]
Antoni published many Latin and Italian essays, some legal pamphlets, comedies and poems, and was member of several Italian academies, most notably the Pontifical Academy of Arcadia.[1]
