Everyday Violence and Natural Disasters in Early Modern Treviso : News of Homicides in the Libro Macaronico of Zuanne Mestriner (1682–1731)Umberto Cecchinato, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek
Povzetek: Between 1682 and 1731, the barber Zuanne Mestriner recorded many murders that occurred in Treviso. His Libro macaronico is a valuable account of the dynamics that led to a murder in modern times. This ego-document opens a glimpse into everyday interpersonal violence, showing how members of any social class resorted to lethal violence in conflicts that stemmed from seemingly trivial motives. This paper provides the first quantitative and qualitative analysis of this data for the city, measuring the homicide rate and focusing on the characteristics of the clashes. It finds a cause for the high rates of violence in the natural disasters that made urban life precarious.
