Overview

L'uomo Delinquente (The Criminal Man) is Cesare Lombroso's groundbreaking and controversial work that laid the foundations for criminal anthropology. This first volume delves into Lombroso's theories linking physical characteristics and predispositions to criminal behavior. Exploring the intersections of anthropology, jurisprudence, and penology, Lombroso presents his detailed observations and measurements of criminals, arguing for a scientific basis for understanding and addressing crime. This work, originally published in Italian, remains a significant, if debated, contribution to the fields of criminology and forensic science. It offers a fascinating glimpse into 19th-century scientific thought and its attempts to classify and understand human behavior within a legal and social context.
