In 1806 the antiquarian Francesco Cancellieri wrote a treatise on the new bells fabricated for the campanile of the Capitoline palaces, replacing earlier ones destroyed during the Roman Republic of 1798-9. Cancellieri's text, and the story of those bells which it contains, offers important insights into the significance of bells in early nineteenth-century Italian Catholicism and also about clerical responses to trauma and loss. Close reading shows how Cancellieri used historical techniques to reconstruct an auditory community around the bells, part of the wider programme of ‘resacralisation’ which took place in Rome at this time. His words also hint at a complex and nuanced perspective on how to reconcile Rome's papal and republican traditions, which contrasts to later, more reactionary endeavours.

1806 年，古物学家 Francesco Cancellieri 写了一篇关于为Capitoline 宫殿钟楼制造的新钟的论文，以取代早期在 1798-9 罗马共和国期间被毁坏的钟。Cancellieri 的文本以及其中包含的那些钟声的故事，提供了关于钟声在 19 世纪早期意大利天主教中的重要性以及关于文职人员对创伤和损失的反应的重要见解。仔细阅读展示了 Cancellieri 如何使用历史技术在钟声周围重建听觉社区，这是当时在罗马进行的更广泛的“重新圣化”计划的一部分。他的话还暗示了一个复杂而微妙的视角，即如何调和罗马的教皇和共和传统，这与后来更反动的努力形成鲜明对比。
