Giovanni Battista Leonardi died in 1733 without children, leaving hislegacy, composed for the most part of credits of the community of Trecate,to the foundation of an house of sisters called Ministre della Carità di SanVincenzo de Paoli (the house opened in 1734) and a pious place, namedOpera pia Leonardi, for the advantage of the citizens of Trecate. First of all,the case focuses on the history of debt between the Leonardi’s family and thecommunity of Trecate, highlighting the attempts and mechanisms of collectingthe debt by Giovanni Battista. Second, it shows the instrumental natureof charity, or rather its coincidence with reasons that are not attributable onlyto the salvation of the soul. Finally, the case analyses the history of debt ofcommunities and the «local» link between charity and municipal institutions.
