    (Dupin no. 1213). This treatise enjoyed great success and was constantly reprinted from the end of the 17th century until the French Revolution. The additions made in the new editions clearly demonstrate the evolution of the rules of evidence during the Enlightenment. Particular emphasis should be placed on the passages devoted to proving contracts and obligations, as well as the treatise on handwriting comparison, which offers a captivating reflection on the legal status of graphology. Moreover, the comparative law approach (with the various Italian legal systems and with Portuguese law) reflects a remarkably modern perspective for the time. His work continued to serve as a reference during the first half of the 19th century (see, for example, Toullier, 1st ed., Vol. 8, p. 14).
