Abstract

In recent years, musicologists have dropped the murder charges against Carlo Gesualdo because criminal law in Renaissance Italy permitted cuckolds to execute their unfaithful wives. As Annibale Cogliano has expounded, Gesualdo had the right to perform an ‘honour killing’. Still, the known facts of this case are few, and the extent to which Gesualdo premeditated his attack has remained a mystery. Through a new investigation of the surviving sources, this study proposes that Gesualdo coordinated his honour killing with the church liturgy: fearful of breaking the fifth commandment, Gesualdo attacked on a day when the Bible lesson sanctioned vendetta killing.
卡洛-格萨尔多的荣誉谋杀是礼仪吗?
近年来,音乐学家们撤销了对卡洛-格萨阿尔多的谋杀指控,因为文艺复兴时期意大利的刑法允许戴绿帽子的人处死不忠的妻子。正如安尼巴莱-科利亚诺(Annibale Cogliano)所阐述的,格萨阿尔多有权实施 "名誉杀人"。尽管如此,有关此案的已知事实仍然寥寥无几,格萨阿尔多在多大程度上预谋了这次袭击也一直是个谜。通过对现存资料进行新的调查,本研究提出格萨阿尔多将其名誉杀人行为与教会礼仪相协调:由于害怕触犯第五诫,格萨阿尔多在《圣经》课程认可仇杀的那一天发动了袭击。
