Summary
A comprehensive collection of pre-Tridentine statutes from Modena's confraternities, spanning the 10th to 16th centuries, offers unprecedented insight into the normative structures and socio-cultural dynamics of these lay organizations. The volume provides a nearly exhaustive set of documents, enabling analysis of their diachronic and synchronic evolutions, motivations for membership, social kinship networks, and community engagement. Key findings include the identification of lacunae in extant manuscripts and detailed descriptions of rituals, particularly musical practices, which shed light on the rich cultural life of these confraternities.
