Gianfrancesco Pivati
Pivati's New Dictionary is a bold contribution to Italian cultural debate in the mid-18th century. The wide, useful, and interesting knowledge it contains is often taken from Hebrew, Greek, Latin, French, Spanish and English, as well as Italian. “ The subjects treated are well researched and generally presented in a simple, direct style (…) ”. Pivati’s liberal voice was out of the chorus in the context of the rigid conformity predominating throughout the Italian peninsula. “ He appears to be committed to Reason and Science as opposed to simple Faith, but he tries to avoid any direct challenge to the dogmatic teachings of the Church ”.
Reference : Silvano Garafalo, in: Frank Kafker, Notable Encyclopedias, Oxford 1981.
