Many institutions and individuals helped me to complete this book. A grant from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Virginia enabled me to make an initial trip to Italy to survey possible dissertation sources. The Fulbright Foundation and the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation provided financial support for my research in the archives and libraries of Verona and Venice. In Verona, Valeria Chilese helped me get my bearings in the ecclesiastical archives, while Paola Lanaro Sartoris friendship and knowledge of Veronese archives, libraries, and historiographical literature were of tremendous help, as was Michael Knaptons ready availability as a source of advice from the perspective of an Anglo-Saxon deeply immersed in the history of the Veneto. I am grateful as well to the staff of the Archivio di Stato di Verona, to don Franco Segala, the director of the Archivio della Curia Vescovile di Verona, and his assistant, don Mario. Adriano Prosperi generously supplied copies and transcriptions of hard-to-find sixteenth-century works; Tom Safley expressed enthusiasm for my project and commented on earlier drafts of chapter 4.
Throughout the years of research and writing, Erik Midelfort and Anne Jacobson Schutte, originally as co-advisors for the dissertation, provided often very different but ultimately complementary styles of advice and support, neither of which I could have done without. Annes continuing help was essential to transforming the dissertation into a book, as were the careful comments of two anonymous reviewers and the editorial staff of Truman State University Press, who helped to guide the later stages of manuscript revision. I am grateful in addition to the numerous women whose wonderful care for my children over the years allowed me to think and to write. Finally, I thank my family and particularly my husband, Eric Posner, for their understanding and unflagging support and interest throughout the many years of this project.
In 1528 or 1529 Caterina Mantuanella, the foster daughter of a small-scale merchant of Verona and sometime soldier named Sebastiano Tessar and his wife, Lucia, married a soldier called Mancin Napolitano, who as his last name suggests hailed from the south of Italy and was currently serving in a company in the Veneto. Court records from the diocese of Verona describe the multistep and notably male-dominated nuptials that began in Caterinas parish church. There, before male witnesses and the parish priest, don Giacomo, but in the brides absence, the groom and Caterinas foster father stated their consent to the marriage. After confirming the union, the male company moved from the church to the brides familys house, where the bride, her foster mother, and other guests waited to watch Caterina and Mancin exchange words of consent and join hands. Later, recounting this process before the court as one of many witnesses questioned in an investigation of Caterinas marital history, her foster father emphasized his own control of the proceedings, specifying that at the church he had directed don Giacomo to put the relevant questions to the groom and acted as Caterinas governor himself in consenting to the union. At his instructions, he added, the priest accompanied him and the groom to the house for the second exchange of consent.
