Francesco Zantedeschi

Francesco Zantedeschi (August 20, 1797 – March 29, 1873) was an Italian priest and physicist. For some time Abée Zantedeschi was professor of physics and philosophy in the Liceo of Venice. Later he accepted the chair of physics in the University of Padua, which he held until 1853 being then obliged to resign on account of failing sight. He was an ardent worker and prolific writer, 325 memoirs and communications appearing under his name in the Biblioteca Italiana and the Bibliotheque Universelle de Geneve. Zantedeschi died at Padua.

In 1829 and again in 1830, Zantedeschi published papers on the production of electric currents in closed circuits by the approach and withdrawal of a magnet, thereby anticipating Michael Faraday's classical experiments of 1831.^{[citation needed]} Johann Wolfgang von Goethe 1829 was a common year starting on Thursday (see link for calendar). ...

He also thought that he had detected, in 1838, a magnetic action on steel needles by ultraviolet light.

In a tract of 16 pages, published in 1859, Zantedeschi defended the claims of Gian Domenico Romagnosi to the discovery in 1802 of the magnetic effect of the electric current, a discovery which is usually accredited to Hans Christian Ørsted in 1820. Zantedeschi's experiments and papers on the repulsion of flames by a strong magnetic field (discovered by Padre Bancalari of the Pious Schools in 1847) attracted general attention at the time.
