The seizure, in the aftermath of Solferino, of Jesuit property in Lombardy from the Fagnani inheritance allows the author to examine how the young Italian state used a clause in the will to build a resolutely anti--clerical body of case law that denied the Catholic Church any legal personality. In this case, diplomatic channels proved powerless against the courts of the Kingdom of Italy.
Il sequestro, all’indomani di Solferino, dei beni gesuiti lombardi provenienti dall’eredità Fagnani permette all’autore di esaminare come il giovane Stato italiano si sia avvalso di una clausola testamentaria per costruire una giurisprudenza decisamente anticlericale che nega qualsiasi personalità giuridica alla Chiesa cattolica. In questo caso, la via diplomatica si rivela impotente di fronte ai tribunali del Regno d’Italia.
Keywords: anticlericalism, state building, diplomacy, jurisprudence, Risorgimento;; seizure of property.
