MATTEUCCI, CARLO (1811-1868) , Italian physicist, was born at Forpi on the loth of June 1811. After attending the tcole
Polytechnique at Paris, he became
professor
  of physics successively at Bologna (1832), Ravenna (1837) and Pisa (184o). From 1847 he took an active
part
  in politics, and in 186o was chosen an Italian senator, at the same time becoming inspector-general of the Italian telegraph lines. Two years later he was minister of
education
 . He died near Leghorn on the 25th of June 1868.
He was the author of four scientific
treatises
 : Lezioni di fisica (2 vols., Pisa, 1841), Lezioni sui fenomeni fisicochimici dei carpi viventi (Pisa, 1844), Manuale di telegrafia elettrica (Pisa, 185o) and Cours
special

induction

  phenomena, such as the magnetic rotation of light, the action of gas batteries, the effects of torsion on magnetism, the polarization of electrodes, &c., sufficiently
