The correspondence archive of Marquise Marianna Paulucci Panciatichi Ximenes D’Aragona has been found in the Florence State Archive, consisting of nearly 1400 documents, mostly letters and postcards, of malacological relevance. Marianna Paulucci, a wealthy Tuscan noblewoman, was a passionate member of the Italian naturalist clubs of the second half of the nineteenth century. In Europe, she was one of the first eminent women recognized for her competence in the field of malacology. Her relations with contemporary malacologists, both Italian and European, were characterized by frequent and lively exchanges of opinions. The archive presented here is the result of these relationships and consists of a vast and varied patrimony of letters and postcards, received and mailed between 1861 and 1896. Most are from scholars but also institutions and sellers (companies, authorities, bookshops, and scientific publishing editors and shell suppliers), closely allied to her scientific activity. In addition to the letters are invoices for literature and malacological items that she purchased. Also present and considered are lists of shells from the major dealers of natural objects and books in Europe. There are 167 correspondents, mainly Italian, but many other European ones, as well as some American and Australian. There are 1396 documents (letters and post-cards) plus a further 10 letters that could not be attributed to a correspondent, making a total of 1406 documents. In addition to the material found in the Florence State Archive, nine letters, donated in 1898 by Paulucci to the Florence Natural History Museum, together with her malacological library and collections, and two letters acquired successively (Maurizio Sosso donation) were studied. This contribution is intended to outline the entirety of the correspondence retrieved so far, creating a reference basis for future insights into individual correspondents. Keywords: Marianna Paulucci Panciatichi Ximenes D’Aragona – epistolary – malacology – history of malacology – correspondence – historical social networks La correspondance de la marquise Marianna Paulucci Panciatichi Ximenes D'Aragona a été retrouvée dans les Archives d'État de Florence, avec près de 1400 documents, surtout des lettres et des cartes postales à caractère malacologique. Marianna Paulucci, une riche noble toscane, était un membre passionné des clubs naturalistes italiens de la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle. En Europe, elle fut l'une des premières femmes éminentes pour ses compétences dans le domaine de la malacologie. Ses relations avec les malacologistes contemporains, italiens et européens, ont été caractérisées par des échanges d'opinions fréquents et animés. Le répertoire présenté ici est le résultat de ces relations et représente un patrimoine riche et varié de lettres et de cartes postales, reçues et expédiées entre 1861 et 1896. La plupart émanent de savants mais aussi par d'institutions et de vendeurs (entreprises, autorités, librairies, éditeurs scientifiques et fournisseurs de coquillages), étroitement liés à son activité scientifique. Outre les lettres, sont incluses les factures d'achat d'ouvrages et d'articles de malacologie qu'elle a achetés, ainsi que les listes de coquillages et d'ouvrages commandés aux principaux marchands d'objets naturels d'Europe et librairies de l'époque. Ce sont 167 correspondants, principalement des Italiens, mais aussi de nombreux Européens, ainsi que quelques Américains et Australiens. Les documents (lettres et cartes postales) sont au nombre de 1396, auxquels il faut ajouter 10 lettres qui n'ont pas pu être attribuée à un correspondant, faisant un total de 1406 lettres. En plus du matériel trouvé dans les Archives d'État de Florence, neuf lettres, données en 1898 par Paulucci au Musée d'histoire naturelle de Florence, avec sa bibliothèque et ses collections malacologiques, et deux lettres acquises successivement (donation Maurizio Sosso) ont été prises en compte. Cette contribution vise à mettre en évidence la cohérence de la correspondance retrouvée jusqu'à présent, fournissant une base de référence pour les futures recherches sur les correspondants individuels.

In the collection of the Panciatichi family, preserved in the Florence State Archive, a rich correspondence of letters and documents related to malacology belonging to the Marquise Marianna Panciatichi Ximenes d'Aragona Paulucci (Florence, 3 February 1835 – Reggello, 7 December 1919) has been studied (Fig. 1). The letters were sent to the Marquise Paulucci from the major malacological scholars of the second half of the nineteenth century, while the other documents, sent by institutions and sellers (companies, libraries, scientific publishing editors and shell suppliers) were mostly related to the purchase of books and shells.
In this first contribution, we wish to outline the structure of this rich and varied correspondence which is composed of 1385 letters and postcards, to which must be added 10 letters that could not be attributed to a correspondent, and the correspondence (11 letters) preserved in the Museum of Natural History of Florence (Sistema Museale d’Ateneo, S.M.A.) of the Florence University, making a total of 1406 letters (Tab. 1). The study of the correspondence will improve the knowledge on Marianna Paulucci, now recognized among the most enlightened feminine scholars in natural sciences of the late nineteenth century (Manganelli et al. 2002; Manganelli & Cianfanelli 2002; Cianfanelli & Manganelli, 2002; Manganelli et al., 2009; Barbagli, 2019; Cianfanelli et al., 2021; Barbagli & Santacroce, 2022; Cianfanelli et al., 2023). Regarding Italy, the second half of the nineteenth century can be considered as the most fruitful period, not only for malacology, but also for the natural sciences. The unification of Italy created a new national culture, seeking to conform with the economic and cultural sectors of othern major European countries. In the field of natural sciences, several malacological societies were formed, to which Paulucci had been affiliated since their foundation, (Manganelli et al., 2002, 2009) In particular the Italian Malacological Society was created in 1874 in Pisa (Manganelli et al., 2017). The Italian Malacological Bulletin (1868–1875) first and then the Bulletin of the Italian Malacological Society (1875–1899) witnessed the transition from a purely collecting approach of the first half of the nineteenth century, to a more scientifically specialised focus. Marianna Paulucci was the first woman to subscribe to the Italian Geological and Palaeontological Society in 1882 (Mazzini et al., 2022; Talenti et al., 2024). Paulucci herself began to collect, buy and exchange fossil and recent marine and continental shells with the sole purpose of forming a rich collection (Thielens, 1876). After 1876, following the widespread nationalistic turmoil, she dedicated herself to producing an Italian faunal list on terrestrial and freshwater molluscs, which would have allowed Italy to place itself at the same level of other European countries (Paulucci, 1878; Manganelli et al., 2002). For this purpose, she created a first collection of 534 Italian species in 5346 boxes and presented it at the Exposition Universelle in Paris, publishing the first catalogue of Italian species (Paulucci, 1878). For this project, she established a network of relationships with the most important malacologists; even more extensive than the one she had already partly built to form her collection of marine and terrestrial fossil and exotic shells.
The documents mainly concern those of the Panciatichi collection, 1367 letters; 28 postcards (filed in two folders: box 239 (Fig. 2) and 51) are preserved in the Florence State Archive. The documents were all photographed in order to study their contents. To these letters, a small batch of 11 letters preserved in the historical archive of the Natural History Museum of Florence (S.M.A.) was added. In addition to the correspondents’ letters, we also examined the payment receipts of the bookstores where Paulucci bought the malacological books and the correspondence of the societies with which she came into contact for reasons related to malacology. The sale catalogues of molluscs sent by the major dealers of the time, present in “box 51”, were excluded. The correspondents are listed in alphabetical order, followed by their concise data, following the criteria already adopted in Manganelli et al. (2017), postponing the in-depth analysis to future works on individual scholars. In some cases, the data for each correspondent were reported in a non-uniform and incomplete way, due to lack of information. The following data are given: given name and surname, date of birth and death, country of origin, portrait - when available. For the correspondents, we followed the criteria of Coan et al. (2021). The author is considered the one who has published at least one essay on molluscs; collector, who has collected or owned a collection of molluscs, indicating the specialization: fossil, recent, continental molluscs, marine molluscs. Also recorded are the main activity of the correspondent (military, university professor, publisher, etc.) and any other interests in natural sciences. Other specific data of the correspondence are: the number of letters and postcards present, their location in the individual boxes at the Florence State Archive or at the Natural History Museum of Florence University, the language/s in which the letters were written, the year or the time span in which the letters were written, the places from which the letters were written, and any other relevant information.
When present, references are given to wide-ranging papers in which the individual correspondents have been previously treated, in particular, in Manganelli et al. (2017), Breure & Audibert (2017), Coan & Kabat (2021), supplemented by other bibliographic sources when necessary. For the Societies, Libraries and Publishing Houses, brief historical notes of their activity are also reported. Abbreviations: APXA: Panciatichi Ximenes d’Aragona fund
The archive highlights how Marianna Paulucci an international character and reveals unpublished news and backgrounds, which characterized the history of malacological studies of a prosperous historical period, between the end of the Napoleonic wars and the First World War, which Dance (1966; 1986) defined "the golden age of malacology" for the European continent. Paulucci's international outlook is evident from the many journeys she undertook during 1862 and 1882, both in Europe (Paris, London, Russia, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Spain) and in various Italian regions. During these travels, she had the opportunity to meet many of the most important malacology scholars of the time, such as Tommaso Allery Di Maria, Marquis of Monterosato, Nicola Tiberi, Cesare Maria Tapparone Canefri, Antonio Villa, Wilhem Kobelt, Hippolyte Crosse, Paul Henri Fischer, Stefan Clessin, Jean-Baptiste Gassies, George Brettingham Sowerby III, and Gwyn Jeffreys (Fig. 3A-B). The letters in this archive show the existing network of relationships with the major scientists and collectors who dealt with continental molluscs in Italy and Europe. In the first letters, she asked for confirmation on the diagnoses of the species she considered new (see the case of Crosse in Cianfanelli et al., 2024), then for an opinion on the diagnoses that she herself began to draw up, and in some letters, there are also drawings of shells. Subsequently with greater experience, her publications produced debates and criticisms, which in some cases were published (Pini, 1879; Paulucci, 1880). The fame of her collection was so widespread throughout Europe that many people visited her, such as Tommaso Allery Di Maria Marquis of Monterosato, Wilhem Kobelt, Gwyn Jeffreys, Hippolyte Crosse and many others. A particular case was that of Armand Thielens, a Belgian naturalist who, on his participation in the "Congresso internazionale di Botanica e dell’Esposizione internazionale di Orticoltura”, was hosted by the Marquise Paulucci who showed him her collection. Thielens remained so impressed by her collection that he published a work describing it (Thielens, 1874). Tapparone Canefri published some of his works based on the "Museum Pauluccianum" as it appears in the titles of his papers (Tapparone Canefri, 1879, 1882). The collection, which had so fascinated Thielens in 1874, grew in the following years, by specializing in Palearctic terrestrial and freshwater malacofaunas. It was even more appreciated when Paulucci decided to present it in two international events: that of the Exposition Universelle in Paris (1878) and the Internationale Fischerei-Ausstellung in Berlin (1880), which were the subject of two of her publications (Paulucci, 1878, 1880). It is interesting to note how the temporal progression of the letters with their correspondents reflects the path of the Marquise's interests. In the list of her correspondents, we first find the palaeontologists, then the specialists of Mediterranean and exotic marine molluscs and from a certain point onwards only scholars who dealt with the fauna of the continental European molluscs, such as Oskar Boettger, Stephan Clessin, Henri Droüet, Wilhem Kobelt, Guillaume Camille Alfred De Candie Saint Simon, Carl Agardh Westerlund. There are 167 correspondents and 47% are Italian authors (79), however the number of correspondents from other countries is also high: France 17% (29), Germany 18% (11), United Kingdom 14% (8), and Switzerland 5% (9). There are also numerous correspondents from other continents such as North Americans and Australians (Tab. 1; Fig. 4A). The documents (letters and post-cards) are 1406, taking into account the sellers of shells and bookshops, publishing houses, printing presses and companies. The predominance is that of the Italian correspondents with about 43% of the documents (593) followed by that of the French ones 26% (360), the British ones 12% (169) and the German ones 10% (140) (Tab. 1; Fig. 4B). The documents were written between 1861 to 1896, the peak numbers between 1873 and 1883 (Tab. 1; Fig. 5). This period coincided with the highest production of scientific papers by Paulucci, on the Italian continental malacofauna (Manganelli et al., 2002). From 1884 to 1896 the number of letters in the archive is much lower (5 letters).
This could depend on two kinds of reasons, the first being that the letters of that period could have been lost or not yet identified in the vast Panciatichi archive. The other, the most plausible, is that for family reasons Paulucci had to decrease her commitment towards her malacological studies. In fact, with the death of her husband Alessandro Anafesto Paulucci in 1887, and the simultaneous illness of her father, Marquis Ferdinando Panciatichi, who died in 1897, the Marquise had to take the reins of her conspicuous patrimony, a burdensome commitment that distanced her from the malacological passion. The paleontological collections were donated to the Museum in Florence in 1869 (this fact deduced by a letter from Igino Cocchi) and 1898 (Cioppi & Dominici, 2010). Again, in 1898, the year after her father's death, she donated her malacological collections to the Florentine Scientific Institutions (Barbagli & Borri, 2002). The letters preserved in the MZUF (11) were probably donated together with other documents to the Florentine Royal Museum of Physics and Natural History together with her collection and her personal library in 1898. The Italian correspondent with the highest number of letters sent is Raimondo Del Prete (54), followed among Hippolyte Crosse (44), with whom she had a very intense correspondance since 1862 (Cianfanelli et al., in press), Monterosato (42) and Tapparone Canefri (42) (Fig. 4). François Paul Savy is excluded because his correspondence is mostly related to the purchase of books (93). Among the correspondents there are also 5 women, with 29 letters: Julia Fitz-Gerald, Adele Verdey, Zoe Vimont, Julie Vieusseux, Marianne De Burgh, to the latter the Marquise dedicated a species, Clausilia (Papillifera) deburghiae Paulucci, 1878 (Fig. 3A-B). If we exclude 3 letters dealing with ornithology, another naturalistic interest of Paulucci's, in the correspondence all the documents, letters, receipts, price lists have malacology as their sole object. Research in the Archive is still ongoing and other letters of malacological content may be discovered. In particular, the letter received by Paulucci from Bourguignat mentioned in one of her papers has not yet been found (Paulucci, 1880, pagg. 170-171): “… mi decisi a scrivere direttamente al sig. Bourguignat a Saint- Germain presso Parigi e per esser sicura che egli avrebbe ricevuta la mia lettera, la spedii raccomandata … Mi rispose una lettera che serbo come campione di un genere di gentilezza di cui per mia buona ventura è il primo ed unico esemplare che abbia mai ricevuto” [“… I decided to directly write to Mr. Bourguignat to Saint-Germain near Paris and to be sure that he would receive my letter, I sent it by registered mail ... I was answered by a letter which I keep as a sample of a kind of kindness of which by my good fortune is the first and only copy I have never received"]. The letters of the correspondents present in the Florence State Archive and at the Museum of Natural History of the University of Florence confirm, with unpublished information, the importance of the role that Marianna Paulucci played in Europe in the second half of the nineteenth century for the evolution and the knowledge of the Italian, but also European, malacological fauna.

The correspondence archive of Marianna Paulucci confirms the major role she played in the development of Italian and European malacology in the second half of the nineteenth century. Furthermore, it testifies to her ability to build an important network of relationships with the leading malacologists of the time, Italian and European, with whom she exchanged opinions and specimens. This network was important for the number and quality of her correspondents, and for the range of topics and contents dealt with. Due to the frequent personal contacts and recurring travels some of her correspondents developed into real friendships as happened with Monterosato, Del Prete, Crosse, Morlet, Gassies, Tapparone Canefri, Fischer, Westerlund and others. An in-depth study of the content of the correspondence together with the letters written by Paulucci kept at the Museum of Florence and other Italian and European archives will shed light on some unsolved aspects of Paulucci's work and to a better understanding of the reason for some of her theoretical choices that are not yet well understood (Barsanti, 2002). Another important contribution of this archive will be the knowledge of the relationships between the malacology protagonists that characterized this productive period of the nineteenth century. Moreover, the analysis of the single letters will give a possible cue to the solution of the many nomenclatural problems, as already happened in some cases for the taxa established by Paulucci (Cianfanelli et al., 2021), or the reconstruction of the correct dates of publication (Cianfanelli et al. in press), according to the rules of Art. 21 of the ICZN Code (1999) for papers introducing new taxa. The data contained in this correspondence are an important piece for reconstructing the history of malacology starting from the main scholars of that period, many of whom are correspondents of Paulucci. Following what has been done with the research at the Florence State Archive, it will be necessary to bring to light the enormous cultural heritage contained in the State Archives of other Italian cities, in the University Archives, in the Natural History Museums and in the Italian Libraries, heritage still not adequately known and valued. Much has been published on the subject, but always on individual authors, lacking a general project to support this important subject. A necessity that Lorenzo Camerano (1856-1917) already felt urgent in 1910, more generally for all Italian zoologists: “L’Unione Zoologica Italiana dovrebbe, per quanto è possibile, che i documenti che si riferiscono agli zoologi passati, come manoscritti, lettere, sunti delle lezioni, ecc., ora posseduti da privati e perciò di studio sempre difficile, talvolta impossibile, vengano raccolti nelle biblioteche e negli archivii pubblici o nei Musei Zoologici per renderli accessibili agli studiosi e per salvarli da eventuale disperdimento o distruzione” (Camerano, 1910). ["The Italian Zoological Union should, as far as possible, that documents referring to past zoologists, such as manuscripts, letters, summaries of lessons, etc., now privately owned and therefore always difficult, sometimes impossible to study, should be collected in public libraries and archives or in Zoological Museums to make them accessible to scholars and to save them from possible dispersion or destruction”]. From this point of view, the repertoire presented here could be a first step for the construction of a complete archive of the Italian authors of malacology of the19th century, based on what was proposed by Audibert & Breure (2011), which should then be linked to the wider European one. The correspondence that has been presented here, essentially in its overall structure, should be studied in detail to carry out further studies related to the Paulucci collection, which is rich in type specimens. Even if many of her contemporaries studied her collection, it is still today a point of reference for specialists for reviews of the regional malacofauna, and we are sure it will still be able to provide useful unpublished data. |
