Firenze, 24 agosto 1738), è stato un giurista e naturalista italianoNato a Firenze e figlio di un matematico, studiò a Pisa dove conseguì nel 1684 la laurea in giurisprudenza. Nel 1685 il granduca di Toscana Cosimo III de' Medici (1642-1723), su suggerimento di Francesco Redi (1626-1697) e Lorenzo Magalotti (1637-1712), gli affidò una delle cattedre di legge dell'ateneo pisano. Tra i suoi allievi si annoverano insigni illuministi come Pompeo Neri, Bernardo Tanucci, Angiolo Tavanti e Giovanni Gualberto De Soria. Insieme a Domenico Aulisio e a Giovanni Vincenzo Gravina, Averani fu tra i fondatori del Neoumanesimo in Italia. Riformò il Diritto pisano sulla base dell'umanesimo rinascimentale, costituendo la base per le riforme toscane della seconda metà del XVIII secolo. Fra i vari testi giuridici che scrisse, le Interpretationes Iuris Civilis furono molto ammirate dai contemporanei.Averani fu attivo anche in altre discipline: teologia, astronomia, filosofia e soprattutto fisica sperimentale. Nel Giardino botanico di Pisa compì varie esperienze, tra le quali alcune con la macchina pneumatica di Boyle, altre sulla luce e sull'elettricità dei corpi. Su sollecitazione di Magalotti, si dedicò anche a ricerche sugli odori. Promosse discussioni di fisica nell'ambito dell'Accademia degli Oppressi, da lui stesso fondata. Fu ascritto a varie accademie, quali la Crusca di Firenze e la Royal Society di Londra. Buono (Good) . Book.

Theological Institute of Connecticut blind-stamps to first and last few pages. Very good (noting water-stains). RARE. FIRST EDITION complete in 3 volumes of Benedetto's exceedingly scarce Opera Latina, "a posthumous collection of his Latin works, edited by his brothers" (SDUK, Vol. 4, p. 286). The work contains poetry, lectures, and dissertations on epistemology, philosophy, and theology, as well as discussions of Greek and Roman scholars including Livi, Virgil, Cicero, Thucydides, and Euripides. "Averani's printed Lectures, occupying the first and second volumes of his collected Latin works, possess indeed no inconsiderable merit, and may still be perused with advantage; but they show him to have been better fitted for familiarizing the minds of youth with facts and principles developed by others, than for extending the sphere of knowledge by original researches. . . .The best parts of the lectures are desultory discussions on ancient customs or points of history. . . .His two volumes contain eighty-six lectures on the Greek Anthology, fifty-eight on Thucydides, and twenty-six on Euripides; after which come thirty-one lectures on Livy, forty-five on Virgil, and ninety-eight on Cicero, which are perhaps the most valuable of the series" (SDUK, Vol. 4, p. 286). In 1676, Averani became professor of Greek at the University of Pisa. "As a teacher of the languages and antiquities of Greece and Rome, Averani was in the highest degree popular and successful. In the earlier part of his academical career, his enthusiasm was even powerful enough to do something towards reviving the neglected study of Greek. Afterwards, while he filled the chair of Latin, for which he had qualified himself by philological studies much more systematic and exact, he enjoyed a more general reputation than any other professor in the university" (SDUK, Vol. 4, p. 286). The work is dedicated to Cosimo III (1642-1723), a Medici and Grand Duke of Tuscany during the time of Benedetto. This was likely a nod to formality rather than an expression of real gratitude, as Cosimo was maintained a rather neutral attitude towards academia or the arts. Though "Cosimo had other things to attend to besides the encouragement of intellectual progress, he did not allow them to interfere with it. Francesco Redi, Averani, Gualtieri, Piero Antonio Micheli, and Giambattista Nelli belong to this epoch. . . .[The] study of languages, poetry, and elegance was brought into fashion again by Benedetto Averani, the two Salvini, Menzini, Filicaia, Canon Mozzi, Govi, Father Politi, and Lami, to mention only the most celebrated" (Yriarte, pp. 114-115). The frontispiece portrait is a nice example of Cosmo Mogalli's (1667-1730) work. Mogalli was an Italian designer and engraver born in Florence. "He was instructed in design by Giovanni Battista Foggini, a Florentine sculptor, and applied himself chiefly to engraving. . . .He executed part of the plates for a book of Etruscan antiquities, published at Florence in 1724, by Thomas Dempster; and was employed, in conjunction with Antonio Lorenzini and others, to engrave the plates for the 'Museo Fiorentino'" (Bryan, p. 160).
