Giuseppe Maria Buondelmonti

Giuseppe Maria Buondelmonti (13 September 1713 - 7 February 1757) was an Italian poet, orator and philosopher.

He attended the University of Pisa, but was unable to graduate due to health issues.

During this time he did write poetry, literary critiques, entries for an encyclopedia that was being put together, and a number of funeral orations.

This degree admitted him into the clerical hierarchy, where he could be called "Fra Giuseppe Maria" and would attend mass every day.

Over the next 5 years he wrote a number of works on philosophy, specifically the principles of natural law.
