The hearing of a case in a court room by a tribunal, today classified as the trial phase, has long stood inherently in the nature of the judicial competence of a State. By contrast, the pretrial phase and the introduction of the public prosecutor into the criminal procedural system as a subject of the judicial process has a much shorter history than the trial. However, in recent times, the pre-…

Everyday Crime, Criminal Justice and Gender in Early Modern Bologna
Female protagonists are commonly overlooked in the history of crime; especially in early modern Italy, where women’s scope of action is often portrayed as heavily restricted. This book redresses the notion of Italian women’s passivity, arguing that women’s crimes were far too common to be viewed as an anomaly. Based on over two thousand criminal complaints and investigation dossiers, Sann…
