早期的现代威尼斯是欧洲最大的城市之一，在17世纪和18世纪的大部分时间里，人口徘徊在140,000左右。该市每年约有5,000人死亡。死亡原因从事故和老年到天花和结核病等传染病。城市人口的密度和流动性加剧了疾病的影响，并促使统治城市的世袭父权制密切监测死亡率。该市卫生局在1504年开始收集死亡信息，这是在1486年一场大规模鼠疫流行后不久，地方法院成立后不久。2这一信息被登记在称为Libri dei morti或Necrologi的登记册中。对死亡率的系统审查是由国家而不是教会发起的：威尼斯最早的教区死亡登记可以追溯到15世纪50年代。威尼斯共和国是一个强大而有组织的国家，它的治理得到了许多地方法院网络的支持，每个地方法院都雇用办事员，产生大量的文书工作。4死亡登记的做法一直延续到1797年威尼斯共和国垮台后。从1537年到1805年，这些“死亡之书”中约有70%幸存下来。5登记册是精心编排的卷，其内容、结构和格式在一段时间内保持着惊人的相似。在大多数情况下，按照威尼斯人的日历，每年只制作一卷，从3月到2月。该市卫生局办公室编制了死亡登记簿
Early modern Venice was one of Europe’s largest cities, with a population which hovered around 140,000 for much of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. 1 Around 5,000 people died in the city each year. Causes of death ranged from accidents and old age to communicable diseases such as smallpox and tuberculosis. The impact of disease was intensified by the density and mobility of the urban population and stimulated the hereditary patriciate which governed the city to monitor mortality closely. The city’s Health Office, the Provveditori alla Sanità, began to collect information on deaths in 1504, not long after the magistracy’s inception in 1486 following a major plague epidemic. 2 This information was inscribed into registers known as Libri dei morti or Necrologi. Systematic scrutiny of mortality was initiated by the state, rather than the Church: Venice’s earliest parish death registers date from the 1550s. 3 The Venetian Republic was a strong and organized state, its governance underpinned by a network of numerous magistracies, each of which employed clerks who generated vast quantities of paperwork. 4 The practice of death registration continued until and beyond the fall of the Venetian Republic in 1797. About 70% of these ‘books of the dead’survive for the years from 1537 to 1805. 5 The registers were elaborate and carefully organized volumes, which remained remarkably similar in their content, structure and format over time. In most cases, a single volume was produced each year, running from March to February in accordance with the Venetian calendar. Death registers were compiled in the offices of the city’s Health
