> Dear Simone,
>
> Recently Andrea Carlino has used the archives of the confraternity
> for his study on dissection in the Renaissance. The book is
> entitled _La Fabbrica del Corpo: libri e dissezione nel Rinascimento_
> and was published by Einaudi (1994). The part which may be most relevant
> for you is in chapter 2 (pp. 105ff). Carlino's book has been recenty
> translated by Chicago UP; the advantage of using the translation is that
> it should have a bibliography and an index, whereas with the Einaudi
> edition you have to read through the text to get references to
> futher material on the topic. According to Carlino the archival material
> for the years you are looking at is mostly available.
>
> Other main studies on the topic (mentioned also by Carlino) are V. Paglia, _La
> morte confortata_
> Roma, 1982; and the articles by I. Polverini Fosi, 'Pieta', devozione e
> politica: due
> confraternite fiorentine nella Roma del Rinascimento' in _Archivio Storico
> Italiano_(1991):119-161 and by Adriano Prosperi, 'Il
> sangue e l'anima. Ricerche sulle confraternite di giustizia in Italia'
> in _Quaderni Storici_51 (1982):959-999 (this second one not just on
> Rome). The book _Eresia e Riforma nell'Italia del Cinquencento_ (1974)
> has also an interesting article by L. Firpo on the 'esecuzioni
> capitali'in Rome and on the archival materi al (the article is entitled
> _Esecuzioni capitali in Roma (1567-1671)_).
>
> I hope this helps. Good luck with your research!
