ARRIVABENE, GIOVANNI. - Patriot and economist, b. of a noble family in Mantua on 24 June 1787, d. there on 11 Jan. 1881. A student of economic and agrarian problems, opposed to Austrian domination, he was involved in the Pellico trial; sentenced to death on 21 Jan. 1824, he emigrated to Switzerland, France, England and Belgium. A senator of the new kingdom from 29 Feb. 1860, he played a large part in the solution of difficult questions concerning the abolition of monopolistic privileges in the field of arts and crafts and the freeing of grain exports. A free-trader in politics, he always took care, from the religious point of view, to demonstrate his Catholic sentiments. He had formed ties of friendship with Leo XIII during the latter's nunciature in Brussels. He left, among other things, highly interesting autobiographical recollections (Memorie della mia vita, Florence 1884).
