medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
I can't answer your specific questions, but here is some bibliography
(some of which you probably know already).
For the early period, check:
Augustine Thompson, OP, *Cities of God: The Religion of the Italian
Communes, 1125-1325*, esp. ch. 2 (University Park, PA: Penn State
University Press, 2005).
For the later period, the standard general work is:
Richard Trexler, *Public Life in Renaissance Florence* (New York:
Academic Press, 1980; reprint, Ithaca, NY: Cornell University Press,
1991).
Also see:
Ronald F.E. Weissman, *Ritual Brotherhood in Renaissance Florence*
(New York: Academic Press, 1982).
For lay fraternities, see:
Gilles Gérard Meersseman, *Dossier de l'order de la pénitence au
XIIIe siècle,* Spicilegium Friburgense, 7 (Fribourg: Editions
Universitaires, 1961).
----, *Ordo Fraternitatis: Confraternite e pietà del laici nel
Medioevo,* Italia Sacra 24-26 (Rome: Herder, 1977).
André Vauchez, "Ordo Fraternitatis: Confraternities and Lay Piety in
the Middle Ages," in his *The Laity in the Middle Ages* (Notre Dame,
IN: University of Notre Dame Press, 1993).
Giovanna Casagrande, *Religiosità penitenziale e città al tempo dei
comuni* (Rome: Istituto Storico dei Cappuccini, 1995).
Hope something there helps you out.
