1587In 16, pp. (8b) + 39 + (9b). Fr. nero e rosso. Bella vignetta inc. all'acq. al fr. raff. San Giovanni Decollato. Testo stampato in nero e rosso. Capilettera figg. Tarletto alle prime 5 cc. Antica cart. rustica. Rarissima raccolta di salmi, litanie e preghiere in lingua latina utilizzati dai membri della confraternita romana della Misericordia per accompagnare i condannati a morte nel momento estremo. Questa confraternita nacque a Firenze alla fine del 1400 con il nome di 'Confraternita di San Giovanni Decollato dei Fiorentini' con lo scopo di confortare i condannati a morte durante gli ultimi istanti di vita, e, una volta giustiziati, di dar loro dignitosa sepoltura. Nel 1490, Papa Innocenzo VIII canonizzo' la loro opera umanitaria con una Bolla Pontificia. La Confraternita divento' quindi 'Privilegia Venerabilis Arciconfraternitas Sancti Joannis Decollati', detta della 'Misericordia della Nazione Fiorentina in Roma'. Il Papa concesse alla confraternita come sede l'antichissima chiesa di S. Maria de Fovea. Alla vigilia di un'esecuzione, i Confratelli uscivano da una porticina della casa dell'Arciconfraternita nei loro sai e mantelli neri, dirigendosi verso le carceri di Tor di Nona o di Corte Savella, al lume di candela, e accompagnati dal suono di una campanella, per annunciare al popolo l'esecuzione dell'indomani. Dopo la lunga veglia notturna, scortavano il condannato, confortandolo fino alla fine. Quindi lo seppellivano nel chiostro della Confraternita, attraverso sette botole i cui coperchi di marmo portano ancora la scritta 'Domine, cum veneris judicare, noli me condemnare'.

1863In-16 p. (mm. 172x101), brossura orig. (picc. manc. al dorso), pp. 58, con fregio xilografato al frontespizio. Rara "prima edizione italiana" di questo libretto stampato a Napoli. L’autore era giunto a Napoli al seguito di Garibaldi che lo aveva nominato Direttore onorario delle Belle Arti. Spirito vulcanico, vi fondò il giornale ‘L’Indipendente’ e si occupò degli scavi di Pompei. Il libretto fu scritto a commento di un processo che aveva appena concluso il clamoroso giallo di un omicidio: vittima, un orologiaio napoletano, tal Francesco Ruffa. L'assassinio era avvenuto nell’agosto del 1862, un anno dopo l’Unità d’Italia, quando i codici non erano stati ancora unificati. Solo in Toscana era già stata abrogata la pena di morte mentre vigeva ancora a Napoli. Di fatto, però, i magistrati napoletani - aperti a quel rinnovamento culturale e morale che sul solco di Cesare Beccaria propugnava l'abolizione della pena capitale - ricorrevano sistematicamente a stratagemmi e a cavilli per non applicarla, anche a costo di forzature paradossali. Così, nel caso dell'omicidio Ruffa, la giuria accordò agli assassini le attenuanti generiche per poterli condannare ai lavori forzati, anziché alla fucilazione. Contro questa sentenza insorse Alessandro Dumas, che in polemica elegante ma dura con i magistrati scrisse "La pena di morte e il giurì napoletano". (dall’articolo di V. A. Stagno su L'Onda Razzista, 1983). Testo ben conservato, con ex libris di Cesare Correnti e la dedica autografa al frontespizio “De la part de l’auteur / A Dumas”.
