Printed in L’Aquila in 1810, this Memoria by Filippo Rizzi stands as a significant contribution to early Italian scientific viticulture. A physician by training and an active member of Florence’s Accademia dei Georgofili, Rizzi wrote for one of the most influential agricultural circles of his time, addressing vine growers, landowners, and learned agronomists engaged in reforming rural practice through reasoned inquiry. First published in Naples in 1802, this second edition reflects the growing circulation of Enlightenment agricultural thought in Italy. Rizzi confronts entrenched viticultural habits, particularly the unquestioned traditions surrounding pruning seasons, with methodical observation and medical logic. His work challenges the automatic reliance on inherited custom, proposing instead a rational evaluation of when and how vines should be cut.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"La Fenice Antiquaria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47188299383019,"sku":"87-1810--550-359.31-2025","price":550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0766\/2000\/5611\/files\/087_003_7f35a77b-73ef-4af0-85a1-2050f1abec1a.jpg?v=1766887952","url":"https:\/\/fenicebooks.com\/products\/rizzi-filippo-memoria-tempo-potatura-viti-1810","provider":"La Fenice Antiquaria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
