BORGHESI, BARTOLOMMEO (1781-1860)

This article appears in Volume V04, Page 248 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BLA-BOS
BORGHESI, BARTOLOMMEO (1781-1860) , Italian antiquarian, was born at Savignano, near Rimini, on the 11th of July 1781. He studied at Bologna and Rome. Having weakened his eyesight by the study of documents of the middle ages, he turned his attention to epigraphy and
numismatics
 . At Rome he arranged and catalogued several collections of coins, amongst them those of the Vatican, a task which he undertook for
Pius
  VII. In consequence of the disturbances of 1821, Borghesi retired to San Marino, where he died on the 16th of
April
  186o. Although mainly an enthusiastic student, he was for some time podesta of the little republic. His monumental
work
 , Nuovi Frammenti dei
Fasti
  Consolari Capitolini (1818-182o), attracted the attention of the learned world as furnishing positive bases for the chronology of Roman history, while his contributions to Italian archaeological
journals
  established his reputation as a numismatist and antiquarian. Before his death, Borghesi conceived the
design
  of publishing a collection of all the Latin
inscriptions
  of the Roman world. The
work
  was taken up by the
Academy
  of Berlin under the auspices of Mommsen, and the result was the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum.
Napoleon
  III. ordered the publication of a complete edition of the works of Borghesi. This edition, in ten volumes, of which the first appeared in 1862, was not completed until 1897.
